I don't think he will outclass him by some 12 rounds but there is that potential and that is what would be said.
For his purposes, he needs Hatton to come out and look really good but still manage to pull away with it by a few rounds.
Mayweather's fight with Oscar was competitive in that he doens't have the power to dominate like Roy JOnes jr. or guys liek that. It was every bit the boxing lesson Whitaker gave Chavez. Being able to dodge almost every punch a fighter like Oscar throws while landing half your punches is amazing, and a sign of dominance IMO if the guy is a defensive fighter like Mayweather. He did what he wanted to in that fight except maybe finish it before the 12th round ended while Oscar did get him to the ropes, which Floyd allowed, he didn't land even close to as much as he wanted to.Quote:

It's just the way things are for floyd which makes me wonder how long he will really continue to fight, there is really nothing else he can prove to raise his stock. There will always be the "sure floyd beat him, but to prove he's really good he should fight blah blah blah. Just my opinion guys.
All he has to do is win and it need not to be a dhady desicion
The crazy thing is that Floyd can do his usual thing and beat Hatton. Ricky would have to have a once and a lifetime performance to beat Mayweather ;)
If Ricky can't hurt him early on there is only one hope left , by going all out for the kill at 110% and maybe wearing him down, Hatton trains up for 30 hard rounds, so he can and will do that ;Question is can Floyd win going backwards and sidways for most of a fight, I think he's smart and smooth enough unless he gets caught hard.
Worth a few $ bet on HAtton for a ko however you look at it.
I have seen Ricky Hatton fading late in multiple fights. I have never seen Floyd fading late in a fight. Have you?Quote:

Well I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Hatton to match Floyd's speed. There's really no comparison between the two in terms of speed.Quote:

Ill still have a couple $ on a ko from HAtton just for he!l of it. ;)
HAtton cant win a close desicion in the states against the states/worlds, best, hahaha he has to ko him or he will loose; even if he is ahead on the rest of the worlds cards.Quote:
