It was looking alright for Hatton in the early rounds. Some of the unofficial scorers had him up on Mayweather at one stage, but after the cut and the dubious point deduction he was rattled and signalling his punches. The ref was a bit protective of Mayweather, to say the least.

I don't know, after the first couple of rounds, it looked like Mayweather was never going to be seriously troubled by Hatton. There was just a huge difference in class - Hatton wasn't quick enough or strong enough to beat up Mayweather, and I think Hatton realised this very early on.

Punch Stats: Total Punches: Mayweather - 129 of 329 (39%); Hatton - 63 of 372 (17%). Total Jabs: Mayweather - 29 of 72 (40%); Hatton - 11 of 63 (17%). Total Power Punches: Mayweather - 100 of 257 (39%); Hatton - 52 of 309 (17%).

The percentages tell the tale - Hatton just didn't hit him.

Scoring: At the time of the stoppage, all three judges had Mayweather way ahead in the fight: 89-81, 89-81 and 88-82.
