How so? Hatton was a naturally bigger guy than Floyd, and the unified champ at 140 when he faced Floyd.
Juan Manuel Marquez would have looked a lot better against any other WW, sure he may have been stopped, but the fight would have been way more competitive. Floyd was an inch or two taller and 4 pounds heavier, the rest was all skill level and speed difference, and thats saying something against one of the most skilled fighters in the sport.
Are you seriously taking the piss mate?? Floyd has grown into a welterweight now, he has been at the weight for over 4 years, 18 months earlier Marquez was fighting at 130 ffs. :rolleyes:
Unfortunately he is deadly serious! :-\

Bigger? Really? Hatton was at a big reach disadvantage and was three inches shorter. And that would all be fine and dandy but Hatton was the unified champion at 140 and the fight was at 147, a weight in which Hatton had proved to be lackluster at best.

As opposed to "He is a big draw/P4P rated fighter with a style I know I can beat"
Pssshhhh
Re: Sorry, who is Floyd fighting?
The best choice of opponent for Floyd imo is Bradley
