I saw the Hatton/Maglianni fight over the weekend.
Maglianni's jab speed was impressive. His head movement and footwork first proved elusive against Hatton in the first few rounds, but Hatton is a very experienced fighter and was able to quickly find counters, especially after Maglianni tried to repeatedly jab his way in then clinch.
Hatton is a physically stronger man than Maglianni, so it was obvious who lost more juice while struggling in the clinch and Hatton just waited until the separation to strike or even better, brawl on the inside.
Good fight. The stats showed Maglianni landing higher % jabs, but Hatton landing higher % power punches. Decision win for Hatton. |
