Re: Hatton Mayweather is ON!!! DEC 8th...Nearly..
i think Cotto and Hatton have similar styles...aggressive fighters who like to punch to the body. But i feel Cotto has looked more comfortable at 147 and brings a bit more all around skill to potentially give Floyd problems. I prefer Mosley vs. Mayweather as well...even though Shane isn't at his peak...he is still the fastest and most athletic fighter Floyd would have ever faced. Hopefully that fight will be made in the not to distant future.

This might be the greatest Fall Season ever for Boxing. Hell maybe even the greatest year. I can't believe all the great fights we have coming up.
Pacquiao-Barerra
Kessler-Calzaghe
Mayweather-Hatton
Cotto-Mosely
Taylor-Pavlik
J Diaz-J Diaz
Soto-Guzman
That's enough for a year, and we're getting that in a matter of 2 months!
Re: Hatton Mayweather is ON!!! DEC 8th...Nearly..
i thnk if this fight is to hapen at 147 then i think its mayweather by UD anyday, as hatton is not that comfortable at that weight. If it was 2 hapen at 140 then we'll see the best of both fighters because hatton is better at that weight n most of mayweather's fights at that weight hav been him not running as much.so it shud be a great fight any how.cnt wait.  ;D

I think Hatton will train as if it were a fight at 140, Mayweather never fights at weltrerweight weight, he always on fight night is like between 148-150, Hatton actully weighs more than Mayweather when he fights at 140 and Mayweather fights at 147 on fight nite.
Re: Hatton Mayweather is ON!!! DEC 8th...Nearly..
I was hoping Mayweather would fight P. Williams so everybody could tell me I was wrong when I said it would never happen. ;) I think weight is a big factor in a Hatton match. I also think in a perfect world this would be a front runner in a welterweight tourney involving the winner of Cotto/Mosley(If finalized), Cintron and Williams.
Re: Hatton Mayweather is ON!!! DEC 8th...Nearly..
I don't think the weight will matter much, the fight will obviously be at 147. Thing is Mayweather is the better fighter. Hatton will surely bring his best game & will have his moments but I can't see him being able to deal with Floyds speed or ability! Just my opinion.

It is an amazing sequence of fights. We are truly in the right place and at the right time when it comes to great matchups. Quality through and through...
Re: Hatton Mayweather is ON!!! DEC 8th...Nearly..
I dont see y ppl are completely writting hatton of, i've followed his boxing for years watching all of his fights and he is a much better fighter than being credited for, maybe through people not seeing him as much in america i dunno. Although mayweather is undoubtdetly 1 of the best p4p boxers of all time and he does have 2 inches height and about 7 on reach with hatton, hatton has been smaller than most of his opponents. I'd love hatton 2 win but i also fink mayweather will take it, his speed and skill is amazing but i wudnt b too suprised it hatton takes it, 1 thing i can back for sure is it will be decided on points i cant see either winning by stoppage or k.o
