MAYWEATHER VS HATTON AT 147?????

I know Mayweather can fight inside, lets just hope Hatton would oblige and actually throw punches with both hands not just hold and hit and maul. I guess if Hatton is allowed to clinch a lot Mayweather could always use his left forearm to create space, how could a ref only warn one of them?

Finally we might actually see Ricky Hatton STFU and stop talking about how he feels he is the best fighter in the world and stop talking shit about Mayweather b4 every fight. Mayweather will punish Hatton and he may not be able to K.O Hatton he will put him on his ass. Mayweather hits a lot harder than people thing and every fighter hes fought has said so. Mayweather is to quick and at welterweight Hatton is like a fish outta water. Oh its on and after this i hope people start giving Floyd his dues although i feel Hatton wont really add to his legacy as people will say all he ever did was beat a shot Castillo (no matter what people say, he only K.Oed Chico cause he was over the weight and he didnt make weight for the 3rd fight) and Kostya Tszyu, he fought him at the right time and he was only looking for his honey punch all night long, but ill give him credit for the win as he proved a lot of people wrong.

Mayweather will beat Hatton silly, he will block Hattons punches and use his speed to slip away from Hattons bare hugs, Hatton will continue to pressue with little effect and will tired around rd 8. You know what i wouldn't be surprised if Hatton came up with some bs not to fight Floyd anyways Mayweather UD but in brutal, economical fashion

It is very apparent that Ricky hatton cannot handle the welterweight division & will fail at that weight! PBF is far too much 4 him

no way hatton runs out of steam in this fight. he has wanted to fight floyd so badly and for so long he will be like a man possesed again as soon as the first bell rings. and i think hatton would win this fight, he would be all over floyd like a flannel and i dont think mayweather would be able to keep him off.
floyd doesnt do to well when he is put under good presure and not allowed to fight a boxing match which he loves to do. if a fighter could sustain a good heavy amount of pressure on him for 12 rounds (like i think hatton and maybe cotto could) then he would get beaten. oscar put good pressure on floyd, so did judah, castillo (first fight especially) and even baldomir, but none of thise could sustain a high pace the way hatton would.
i cant see floyd stopping hatton because ricky takes a hell of a punch. but mayweather could win a decision if he manages to stay away all night, but i cant see him being able to.
i dont think hatton woud have stamina issues in this fight and i almost got a semi on when i read that this fight might happen.

Again, we agree, he went down ;D


Like I said, dont pretend he's untouchable ;)

Mayweather's mental attitude won't let him lose to Hatton he's fought better fighters than Hatton in truth this would be Hatton first major test against an elite fighter Kostya and Castillo were past it really or definately faded.

I don't think Tszyu was faded - Castillo yeh

I think he was he only fought once in 23 month due to injurie and he was 35 straight after he basically retires that tells me he was already done.

Less fights than Hatton (so what if he was 35)!!
No wars!!
And as you said a nice rest with only 1 fight in 2 years ;)!!

I reckon he must've suddenly become Washed up between the Mitchell and Hatton fights ::**

Maybe now its time for PBF to STFU and stop talking about how he is the best pound for pound fighter the world has ever seen and actually prove it by fighting a world class fighter. Everyone keeps saying that Hatton is a fish out of water at welterweight when he has only had 1 fight at the weight, yes it was tough going for him but you cant judge a fighter on 1 performance. Yes Floyd is the best defensive fighter around but Hatton will close of the ring and smash Mayweathers body to bits. Mayweather has never faced anyone with Hattons work rate and I dont think he is going to be able to take, he can run but he cant hide!!

No disrespect, please note, no disrespect but this is exactly what Floyd wants and should not be given... Mayweather and his people deviced a business plan or a strategy to get the easiest and still most lucrative bouts out there. So he provokes Ricky talkin about his beer belly and unprofessionalism in between fights, Ricky wins big over a famous Floyd's opponent but fights his usual "Hit ya first and grab till Death do us apart" style and gets foolishly hyped up for a meeting with Floyd... I don't believe that Hatton's people believe he can beat him - Ricky is the better pressure fighter since JCC and has faster footwork and even is more consistent than Pacman but still is a 5'6'' tall, short-armed, tight body, upright natural 140 pounder - suppose Ricky jumps in and hits Floyd first more often than not and then what? Ties him up for 12 rounds? ... Floyd's laughing straight to the bank with this ( Ha ha ha ha ha ha) and I don't wanna see it!

He's fought plenty of worldclass fighters and Mayweather has a great workrate himself and has never run out of gas Ricky has as we all know.

His opponents were that great under scrutiny - and apart from Philips and Hatton how many time did he go to the trenches, to end of being shot after so few fights ???

This is a fight Hatton has wanted for years. Do you think his mental attitude would let him lose? I personally feel he'll want this more because he respects Mayweather is P4P best, where as Mayweather doesn't respect Hatton and I think he'll take him lightly.

Mayweather doesn't take guys that he feels aren't worthy lightly...he trains to the best of his ability to show them that they never belonged in the ring with him in the first place...remember he called gatti
C-rated...and we saw how lightly he took him...

Mayweather is just to good for Hatton keep the faith Hatton fans but your guy is going to get beat.

The one thing that Hatton has that Mayweather doesn't is guts and heart. Everytime I see Mayweather fight and in press conferences, he doesn't seem like he wants it badly, he just thinks that he is the best so he deserves it.

Hatton wants this bad...he will die out there for the win, because his legacy means more to him than it does to Mayweather. He thinks that he has already got it! He may be right...but Hatton wants it more!

Any fighter who climbs through them ropes has heart Mayweather has never had to dig deep and have a war because he's been so much better than his opposition and i can't see it being any different with Hatton.

every time i hear or read in this case some saying that whatever top person that may doesn't have guts, or heart, or isn't tough...it's just toooo stupid....

i guess it doesn't take guts to move up weight after weight and beat guys bigger than you..four weight divisions in four years...and since you went all the way biased against floyd i'll take ricky's toughness..(and i really believe he's a TOUGH TOUGH TOUGH s.o.b.) and use it against him...if he's so tough why did he run back down to LWW after seeing that he couldn't handle the big boys is it because he doesn't have guts?

As much as I'd like to see Hatton win I just can't see it happening, not at 147 anyways. Heart and guts? Gatti has those qualities by the boatload and is all it got him was a swollen face and ref stoppage. Though I do think Ricky will do better than most with Floyd. Of course every guy fighting Floyd is supposed to do better than the last one,lol.

Lets hope this fight comes off

My man, no disrespect but u think that Alonzo Butler is soon to be heavyweight champ. U post that Mayweather does not impress. Alonzo Butler does? Do u really expect to be taken seriously?

I do agree that Mayweather has been on the fortunate side of some decisions. But that's how the ball bounces when it goes to the cards. When 2 guys fight & leave it up to 3 others to give their personal opinion of how they saw the fight, IMO it has to be accepted. Lets not forget about collazo. In the end that's all that history will remember is the win/loss column.

Again, I don't want this post to come across ugly but take everyone's opinion into consideration & u tell me.
Who's beleiving bullcrap?

cc bro. If he thinks Mayweather got 2 gifts then you gotta believe Hatton lost to Collazo.

Firstly I think the fight will be at 147 (to Hatton's detriment)

Secondly no denying how good a boxer Floyd Mayweather is but this fight will be closer than people think. Don't forget Oscar De La Hoya almost beat Mayweather and most will agree he would have won more rounds had his jab not disappeared and his work rate not dropped. Ricky Hatton will have a fantastic work rate and will not tire a la Oscar.

Granted Oscar was a bigger stronger fighter but I can definitely see this fight going in a similar direction. In every sport at every level there is always a major upset where the more skillful competitor/team is beaten by a more determined, psychologically prepared competitor/team, this could very well be Boxing's turn.

although floyd didn't lose to oscar and the first fight with castillo was certainly closer than 115-111...
and hatton could have lost to collazo...but it's ridiculous to say that mayweather isn't impressive...that's short mindedness talking or someone who must have only seen floyd fight the bigger guys...because even if you never give him credit for being great to watch....you'd have to just flat out

"dislike, hate, be blind, or for some reason can explain it, or floyd reminds you of the guy that bullied you or took your girl, or quite possibly insane"

if you say what he did to corrales wasn't impressive...even harold lederman was comparing him to willie pep during that fight...

Oh yeah Alonzo Butler...... :lolhaha: :LMAO: :lolololol: yeah just like calvin brock

Sure he does. Aggression can't help you if you have no defense and compared to the type of boxing skill he will be facing, Hatton more or less has none. He is gonna get peppered all night long. If Delahoya could not walk through Floyd's combinations at 154, no way can Hatton do it at 147. He is going to get done up just like Gatti except it will take longer. Probably he will be punished for the duration because it sounds like he got Mayweather angry. Hatton should stick with fighters that will fight him his way, like Cotto or someone who will stand in front of him. He is totally throwing away his undefeated record on this one because I dont see really any way for him to win this fight, barring some kind of injury and I doubt FM is dumb enough to go through with the fight if he has one. Hatton will have to chase him and going backward, Mayweather can continuously get off and deliver accurate counter punches. Mayweather by totally lopsided decision, but Hatton gains mad respect for heart and valiant effort in defeat.

I said this after hatton beat KT and floyd beat gatti and everyone started wondering about the two of them fighting...

i think i replied "It would look just like mayweather-gatti except hatton is stronger so he'll take more punishment"

With Mayweather fast ripping jab to body and head and his fast combinations and footwork theirs only one outcome for me thats a Mayweather victory i think Hatton will get stopped on cuts Kostya and Castillo were a real big step up but Mayweather is'nt a step he's more like a mountain up for Hatton can't see him beating Mayweather.

42 Mayweather 21 Haton i think that says it all.

In terms of skill yes Mayweather has tons more but sometimes bit of old fashion heart grit and right style can overcome skill probably not in this case but you never know miracles do happen in boxing got to keep the faith 8)
