Thread: What about Hatton against Oscar!

There has been alot of talk about PBF and Oscar since his win on sat night

I dont think Floyd would want any of Oscar. He knows it would be his toughest test yet plus the roger mayweather things but might take it for the cash

what about Oscar and hatton considering hatton gets through this weekend

Does anyone think it would be a good match up.

Oscar is too big for Hatton imo

Hatton would get busted up I think.. Oscar really is too big and powerful, plus Hatton couldn't get around his jab.

Agreed..CC.

He'd be bigger alright but hatton is fighting at 147 next week and Oscar has fought at this weight many times and even as low as 130 in his earlier career

i wouldnt dismiss that quick for that reason only

hatton is not to little, if anything OSCAR is to little, This is a guy who fought at 140 and thats as low as he can do...oscar fought at what? 135? or smaller?

Hatton looks very big at 147 and surely can fight 154 if he chooses. Hatton is much bigger then mayweather so why havent people said that Mayweather is to small to fight oscar?

Get around his jab If you guys are judging hatton on 2 fights then u dont know what ur talking about...hatton is a MASTER at slipping the jab and throwing a Up Jab ( for those who dont know what that is, its a jab that is kinda of thrown like an upper cut) And that punch gets him in range and once he's in range oscar will have a VERY hard time., just like anybody else would when fighting hatton.

Hatton will knock Collazo out and who ever else is put in front of him....

Seriously some of you aren't being logical. Hatton would get murdered. The only reason PBF even has a legitimate shot against ODLH is because he's probably the better boxer and has awesome defensive skills and knows exactly when to run and how to avoid getting hit. The PBF fight would probably be boring. Hatton, on the other hand, IS A PRESSURE FIGHTER!!! If Mayorga can't bully ODLH around, do you think small, little Ricky Hatton can? Hatton is a great boxer, but come on people, just like PBF, they both needed to stay at 140. Hatton can't outbox ODLH and he definitely can't outslug ODLH. What can Hatton do to win? Hatton - ODLH would probably be a repeat of ODLH-Gatti but Hatton would probably land a lot more punches. There's no way Hatton would beat ODLH. Hatton needs to fight PBF and that's that.

Umm...ODLH by KO inside of 4 rds......this would be an extreme mismatch...but I like ODLH and wouldn't object to seeing him destroy an overrated english fighter....

I think hatton poses more of a challenge than PBf. PBF doesn't have the power to knock oscar out and I don't know if anyone has noticed but he has lost some speed moving from 140 to 147. Hatton has an attack where he smothers you and throws a huge volume of punches also floyd's chin is untested but it cannot be better than hatton. hatton has proved that he can take a shot and also has more power than pbf

I doubt floyd has lost any handspeed like people are saying, if he wants his true speed he needs to get rid of those giant gloves and in the fight against zab he used the jab only as a range finder so you can't really judge by that.

You think Hatton has a chance? He doesn't, not against Mayweather. Julio Cesar Chavez all over again.

Cuts

After watching Oscars Jab against mayorga, it was brutal, mayorgas head was snapping back all over the shop.

Unless Ricky could really get near him, Oscar would hurt him...

But we all know how good Hatton is, and oscar tires.

If Ricky can survive 7 rounds, it would go to score cards, but I feel Oscar by UD or SD especially in Vegas

Oscar would destroy Hatton the same way he did Gatti. To much power.

Im abit surprised Hatton is getting dismissed so easily against oscar.
I suppose Oscar is the story at the moment from sat night and it was a good performance.

If Hatton wins this weekend in style a few opinions might change.

Who else is there for oscar to fight if PBF doesnt happen.

Ricky is a completely different fighter to Gatti.

I love Gatti but he has no defence and more of a brawler so of course De la Hoya was going to be more powerful, he's the natually bigger man.

Hatton would slip those jabs and give oscar hell
