Mayweather knocked out Hatton in the 10th

LAS VEGAS — Floyd Mayweather Jr. didn't need to dance to beat Ricky Hatton. His fists proved a lot more potent than his feet.

Mayweather remained unbeaten Saturday night and retained his claim to being the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world by stopping Hatton in the 10th round of a brawl that featured none of the fancy footwork he has shown in the ring and on reality TV.

Hatton wouldn't let Mayweather move, but it didn't matter as Mayweather used precision punches to wear down the challenger for his 147-round crown. Hatton kept trying to get inside and score points, but Mayweather had an answer for everything he did.

The end came after Mayweather landed a crushing left hook that dropped Hatton on his back in Mayweather's corner. Hatton got up at the count of eight, but Mayweather almost immediately got him on the ropes and landed another flurry of punches to the head.

Hatton went down almost on a delayed reaction, while at the same time referee Joe Cortez moved in to stop the fight and Hatton's corner threw in the towel at 1:35 of the round.

That was a great fight probably the best fight I've seen from Floyd. Next great fight Kelly Pavlik vs Jermaine Taylor 2 in February.

Hatton was too wild. He threw a lot of punches, but couldn't block at all.

Could easily tell that Mayweather had more stamina and a game plan going on.

Mayweather is too dominate for any one from 140 to 154, I think the next fight would be with Cotto and I think he's to slow for the kid.

Mayweather seemed almost unphased by the entire fight. Even in the 10th round, Mayweather still looked as if it was his 1st round.

I will laugh my *** off when that happens.

He's a cocky dumbass, but he can fight really good.

I know, I can't stand his demeanor, but he can fight. I was hoping de la hoya would take him but didn't happen either.

I'm not suprised that he won but I'm more suprised that he lost in Dancing with the stars

mayweather is a great champion, he deserves what he gets. His attitude could change for the better instead of being so kocky, I hope he never flashes his money in NYC hed get mugged lol. There is no competition for him in that weight class he needs to move up if his hands hold together.

Didn't see the fight, but was really hopping Hatton would have finally shut the cocky *** up, but nope! I will give Mayweather his due being he probably is one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world, it's just he is such an ***!

I only watched dancing with the stars to see if the dumbass would slip and break something of importance. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
