Thread: Poll: If Floyd does fight Hatton, will you.....

Place your vote.

I just want Floyd to come back, Ricky is one of the bigger names out there so a worthy tune up fight for Floyd before he goes on to fight Mosely or Cotto

I'd criticize him if he didn't fight him now. Floyd has done plenty of mouthing off about what he's going to do to Hatton, so he should back it up.

i'd criticize him for taking the stylistically easier fight and doing it behind the hype of

"oh its hatton"

hatton still isn't as much of a threat as SSM....but after he wipes the floor with hatton he still has to fight shane to fully get credit from me and i'm obviously one of his biggest supporters...

they have both taken shots at eachother - so it is time they fight. no reason the winner can't fight ssm.

lol tune-up why dont you give me ten to one odds then

man you guys watch collazo and hatton at 147 and you already know hattons complete future and potential for hatton at 147... you all should be hbo commentators

SSM and PBF both will beat hatton easily..so why not fight each other...pbf for sure he knows it that why if he fights hatton it will be calculated because he knows that his style gives him a superior advantage over hatton..it will look like RJJ v PAZ..or PBF v GAtti or RAHEEM v MOrrales

I think as much as everyone hates to admit it absense makes the heart fonder..

Just like the short period ofter Bhop - tarver..

Just like trinidad coming back from retirement..

Its not fan fare that he will comeback to.. But people know they do want to see him and hes too young and great not to take on the other young greats..

He needs hatton and cotto's..

Hatton and cotto have proved beyond the stage where they loose and they get called overrated and are great competition..

I fear theres more chance of him beating shane and people saying he was past it..Then there is of him beating hatton and them saying..He was overrated..Same with cotto

if floyd beats hatton at 147 they will say hatton was too short for the weight and too one dimensional for floyd...cotto is too one dimensional and doesn't have enough footwork not too mention still doesn't have the proper ring knowledge to be in the ring with floyd....

SSM at 147 soundedly beat collazo, a fighter younger than both PBF and himself...not to mention almost beat hatton if it were not for a well timed left hook that gave hatton the extra points to win the fight...well timed because collazo was off balance..not because he was hurt....

If anyone does say that bro then it won't wash with me, and it wouldn't with any real fight fans, with this fight the weight is irrelevant cos their basically the same size, in the ring they'll proably both be around the 152-153 mark. This fight is all about styles, and it's why it's such a great fight. You won't hear any excuses from the Hatton camp if Mayweather does outbox him. I don't think we could say the same if Mayweather got knocked out.

You cannot argue that Hatton has deserved his shot he clearly has and I certainly don't think you can not want to see two fighters fight because you think one of them will lose. I myself think Floyd will beat Hatton easily by staing on the outside and picking him apart. I think it's a fight that's practically gauranteed to see Ricky have at least a couple points docked for holding and maybe even disqualified.

However he has most definitely earned a shot at Floyd and if Floyd fights him I certainly won't be saying it was an easy option for Mayweather.

The Mosley fight is extremely intriguing but it definitely cannot make anything close to the money that Hatton v Mayweather would make. I think it generates more excitement in so many ways, plus it's prime v prime which always looks great in the history books.

forget money..ssm is much bigger threat than hatton..beat shane first then take the money fights...shit he made about 25 million for delahoya..he shouldn't be starving for awhile..besides he got 8million against baldomir...he'll get and easy 10mill for fighting mosley...

Mosley is talking about retiring for good, as he hasn't felt the desire as much anymore. You'd see a repeat of DLH-Mayweather, with Shane losing soundly on points. For me, there is no debate there.
