Mayweather Downs Hatton To Stay Undefeated

Mayweather Wins In Round 10

Las VEGAS -- Floyd Mayweather Jr. remained unbeaten Saturday night and retained his claim to being the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world by stopping Ricky Hatton in the 10th round of a brawl between the two previously undefeated boxers in Las Vegas.Mayweather used precision punches to wear down the challenger for the welterweight 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. Mayweather was ahead on the ringside scorecards when he landed the blow that ended the fight.
