Hatton's flaws are the kind that virtually any great fighter with quick hands would be able to exploit.

Don't you people get it? Hatton was supposed to lose by quick TKO! The money was for a Mayweather/Pacquiao blockbuster PPV. So, after Mayweather beats(KO?)Marquez, the promoters will get to rake in the BIG dough. This was all arranged, and wasn't ever intended as a real fight.
That's because money rules many a sporting event, and we're all suckers!

Didn't I tell you people, Hatton is a scrub next to Pacman, he laid him out, put him to sleep, too much power, too much speed, way to skilled for hatton, hatton has fought nobody's in exception of mayweather. and look what happened to him in that fight, mayweather look out. first Marquez is gonna beat the living daylights out of you and the pacman is next.Saludos al Spanky en La Tuna.
