anyone watching the fight between Mathew hatton and Alvarez for the wbc light welterweight title that Alvarez has some punch 36 fights all won with 26 OKs and only 20years old its round ten hatton as a cut to above is eye Alvarez as had a point docked for punching after the bell hatton doing well to hang in there at the moment

I didn't hold out much hope for Hatton going into the fight but he proved a tougher man to shift than I had him down as. Alvarez was too good and too strong for him, but Hatton showed A LOT of courage to even take the fight against a man a weight division above him and against a man that came in over the weight limit, not to mention the kids reputation going into the fight.

 

I'd like to see Hatton back down at Welter weight. I'm still yet to be convinced that he's a genuine world class boxer, but if he keeps winning a few more meaningful bouts then maybe another title shot?

 

Either way best of luck to Matty Hatton :good: .

Only saw the fight earlier today,Hattons a solid fighter but doesnt have that little something extra that sets world champions apart.Too one paced and not enough strings to his bow.....Alvarez just had that spark of extra talent and crispness of punch and reactions.

Its a shame for Hatton but thats the dangers of riding on a name,you end up out of your depth....with that in mind he did ok and wasnt embarrassed and showed good willingness and desire to win so fair play to him.
