December 8, 2007 - MGM Grand
This could have been a great and very interesting fight if not for that paid for, hack of a ref, Joe Cortez. Had he actually let them fight, this could have been an ATG fight. The atmosphere was absolutely electric in Vegas. Ricky was in peak and prime condition. Star studded fight.
Instead, Joke Cortez broke them up immediately as soon as Hatton got inside. So that was the fight, Hatton getting stung with punches coming in and for his effort, gets broken up immediately. Rubbish.
For shame! Robbed Ricky of actually having a fighting chance and the fans of seeing a great fight.
Would Hatton have won? Prob not but he could have really pushed Floyd that night and didn't get the chance.
