POLL:Who Has The Best Chance of Beating PBF?
Im stuck between Margarito and ODHL. I feel like Mayweather would have troble against DeLaHoya because of his size and level of opposition he has fought. DeLaHoya seldom has an easy fight and has been in with the better guys. It all depends on what he has left. Margarito is bigger and stronger than PBF but the skill isnt quite at Floyds level and im a big Margarito fan. Anyone else that could possibly beat him feel free to list.
Re: POLL:Who Has The Best Chance of Beating PBF?
I voted Margarito 8) and since your poll did not say at what weight I'm assuming at Welterweight is the question....Margarito is a natural Welter, Hatton isn't and thats why I feel Margarito has the best chances.....Now if it's overall who has the best chances at beating PBF then I would vote Hatton but at 140 ;)

I was thinking Welterweight at this point in time. Otherwise id say Winky had the best shot at Middle but that fight wont happen anytime soon. Ouma could beat him in the future too imo

Honestly...if anyone stands a chance...it'll be Hatton...only one chance for him to win though...constant pressure...then again...that may not work, but if he can keep up the work rate...I gotta lean towards Hatton.
Basically the reason being is this...against Castillo & Judah that was the only time I have ever seen Floyd have trouble & it was due to the pressure.
Floyd loves to maintain control. Pressure often negates control with many fighters.
Hatton's body work & uppercuts would be the only thing to give Floyd issues IWO.
Although Floyd was open to getting caught with a few left hooks from Judah...Judah is a southpaw & a quick one at that. Hatton being an orthodox fighter like Mayweather will make it a bit more comfy of an evening if he can keep Hatton ate bay. What he'll need to do to get by Hatton is befuddle him & move like he did against Gatti & Corrales.
He did a lot of standing & trading with Judah...basically just to prove a point I would imagine...one that he can't afford to fwock with if he's in the ring with Hatton.
I don't give any of the others a shot in Hades.

Heh heh heh.
Re: POLL:Who Has The Best Chance of Beating PBF?
judah, come thursday he will have 1ce already ;)
Re: POLL:Who Has The Best Chance of Beating PBF?
i voted Ricky becuase as Wacko says floyd may struggle with hattons pressure style. I do think PBF could beat all of those in that list however but hatton has the best chance.
Re: POLL:Who Has The Best Chance of Beating PBF?
Winky can only beat him at 154 I think PBF beats Winky at 147.

Hatton at 147 could not bring that much pressure to PBF as he did with Tszyu at 140.
Thats 7 mopre pounds on Hattons body.....

I voted Hatton, think he's got the best chance although I'd lean a bit towards PBF
Gotta say though that it baffles me how many times I've heard "it will be like the Gatti fight" when talking about a Hatton fight. Yes because Hatton and Gatti are such similar fighters. ::**
I didn't pick Margarito cause Floyd's looked his most impressive against tall guys that come forward, Corrales, N'dou for example, and he's got more room to fire to head and body. I think Hatton's got a better chance cause he doesn't leave himself open as much and is just more solid overall IMO
Re: POLL:Who Has The Best Chance of Beating PBF?
I just don't see the same Hatton at 147 that we saw at 140......I just don't really....
