Everyone loves bragging rights, so make your pick in here so after the dust settles we will all know who was wrong about the biggest fight of the year ;D. But seriously make your pick and give a reason.
Mine is, Mayweather by late tko or UD. I think his speed will be too much and will just pummel hatton.
Mayweather by UD with scores reading.
116-112 115-113 116-112.
Mayweather by stoppage somewhere in the middle rounds. Hatton won't stop coming forward and pressuriing floyd no matter what making it just that many more times he gets hit. Floyd has an advantage in too many area's and hatton hasn't been in the ring with anyone near floyds skill and talent level.
What'up Snakey. I think Hatton will bring the best out of Mayweather and via-versa. I even think Hatton might knock Floyd down somewhere in the first three rounds. But as soon as Mayweather figures the Riddle of the Spinks........ It will be all PBF by 9 TKO/Cuts over the unbeaten powerhouse Hatton.
I will again bet against PBF. I will eventually get it right, lol. If Ricky can't beat him, Cotto will. Believe that.
Danny G we must have a signature bet >:mad I need revenge for that Pavlik banner you made me!
I guess I kinda like the sig really...I havn't even taken it down yet ;D
Hatton- I'm actually thinking a late attritional stoppage.
However a points victory would be nothing to be sniffed at!!!
Hatton 8-4 or 7-5 rounds...... But i hope he completly breaks him down and ko's mayweather...
my biggest prediction is hatton will shock all the mayweather fans that think it is going to be a blow out. HATTON WILL NOT GET BLOWN OUT.....
You're right man, Cotto will!Quote:

I always thought Floyd would win (specially if he bikes the whole fight) but I think Rick will be stronger and more aggressive than he has ever been. He looks so much better in training than I ever seen him and he is extremely confident and relaxed, I also think not having to shed the extra 7 pounds will do him the world of good. Rick is out to wreck Floyd and for the first time I been thinking....... "No Floyd, you wont be able to run from this guy because he is quicker moving forwards than your are moving backwards"
i will be rooting for hatton...
but think mayweather walks away with a ud
no matter which way i look at this fight Floyd can be the only winner, he has so many advantages and hes so confident in his own ability. Hatton has had some good wins but he has been fighting guys that are there to be hit. The movement,speed,accuracy and versitility of Floyd is something that Hatton has never face and something that Hatton hasnt bothered to get accustomed to. He could have fought Witter,Malinagi,Judah, in his past 3 fight to get him ready for the biggest fight of his life instead he fought guys that he knew he could beat without pushing himself (Castillo,Urango,Collazo) almost cost him against the latter tho. I think Hatton took a look at the 1st Castillo fight with Floyd and thought this guy aint all that and saw the Oscar fight and felt it solidified his inital thought. Fact is Floyd fought with a hand injury in the Castillo fight and he allowed Oscar to get him against the ropes in there fight so he tired.
Floyd will win this fight convincingly hes fought pressure and effectivly dealt with it everytime. He knows when to let his shots go and when to cover up. Hatton may throw a volume of punches but Floyd throws punches that catch the judges eye. Hatton is going to be relentlesly coming forward so hes going to get hit with a fair few shots couple that with Floyds accuracy and deceptive power and Hatton is gonna end up lookin a f**kin mess after its all over.
Yeah because Floyd wrecks all his opponents doesnt he?Quote:

I'd love to say that they will have a toe to toe war like Mayweather did with Jesus Chavez and N'dou but honestly I see him winning from the outside and beating outboxing Ricky without really breaking a sweat.
Classic Bilbo, always the joker ;DQuote:

Competitive while it lasts but I can see Hatton getting cut in this fight and getting stopped in around 6
He had two bloody awful cuts in the Maussa fight due to butts and he managed to win. This cuts thing is getting seriously daft.Quote:

Exactly, if Rick does get cut it wont be a fight stopper of a cut. I'm 100% on that.Quote:

The reason i think this is because of his brother Mtathew, no real probs with cuts there.
Hatton 6th round TKO.

Ive got to go for Hatton to KO Floyds arse, the closer the fight has got the more confident I am with a Hatton win he is looking in such good shape and I dont think there is anyway Mayweather is going to stop Hatton he has too much heart!!
Mayweather UD 12. 118-110, 117-111, 117-111
hatton by stoppage or ud. i cant believe so many people are writin hatton off. hatton is gonna swarm mayweather none stop for every round mayweather is not gonna have the time or space to work. hatton dont just come forward and throw shots hes a smarter fighter than people give him credit for. and all this talk about well mayweathers fought pressure fighters before. yeah maybe but he aint faced no ricky hatton this man is another kettle of fish. i could swear my life on nothing but a hatton win
i see leonard duran 1 all over again
Mayweather 8-9 round TKO ala Gatti style, Billy Graham will be hugging Hatton while on his stool with tears in his eyes as Ricky gets demolished :-\
I seriously hope this isn't the case as I really like Hatton.... But in don't see this as out of the question... In fact the same scenario has gone through my head.Quote:

Hatton SD or late KO.
Did you all see the last 24/7 where Floyd's talking about all his hand, wrist, elbow and back injuries? I found that a fascinating bit of info. And the guy hurting in RICKY's camp is the Graham, the poor bastard holding the mitts....
I hope this is the end of Floyd's run.
Hatton SD
116-112 Mayweather, 115-113 X2 for Hatton ;D
Hatton by TKO within the first 5 rounds.
I'll go with Floyd by UD - just because I'm usually wrong, and I hope I curse him.
Go Ricky!!!
Yeah, uh-huh ::** Try these numbers:Quote:
