all the greats are dirty. Mayweather isn't p4p #1 cuz he fights nice, he has a lot of tricks up his sleeves too, uses his elbows, etc.

Now, obviously this video was made by some heart broken British fag and it's over exaggerated, but you get the idea. Mayweather is sneaky, knows a lot of little tricks.

After watching that video it was clearly made by some Brit dude who was butt hurt about his boy Hatton getting knocked out. What I seen from Floyd as the video pointed out... Floyd was using his elbows to keep Hatton from holding/hitting.

Just look at 1:29 minute of the video. Hatton is the one doing all the illegal stuff and then blames Cortez for not letting him get away with it. I don't believe Floyd is a dirty fighter.

well right, I already said it was made by some broken hearted british fag. The point though, was to show Mayweather does know and use little tricks. The elbow thing he's done his entire career. Same with Mike Tyson.

I'm not saying he is a dirty fighter, he's not, but either is Hopkins. Hopkins just knows lots of little tricks.

Dirty fighting are people like Trinidad that low blow when in trouble or someone like Samuel Peter that constantly rabbit punch. that's dirty. Hopkins is a rough you up kind of fighter, not really dirty, just rough and knows lots of tricks. That's all I'm sayin. Things like clinch and while the ref is trying to break it up, hit his opponent with his other hand that the ref cant see. That's sneaky and something that is learned after boxing for 20+ years

I dont hold anything against Mayweather for what he did, that smothering charging like a bull thing that Hatton does is dirty as fuck to me so if your whole gameplan is to do that then thats nothing to do with boxing skills.

I see your point. Your point is there is a difference between sneaky and dirty. Golota/Tyson comes to mind when thinking of dirty fighters.

I agree... Hatton bulls into, grabs you and then hits you. He'll grapple, wrestle, and then catch you with a sneaky punch. I can't stand his style of boxing. It's terrible.
