Ok, I'm not convinced.
When the fight was first made, I gave hatton no chance on winning but after considering what hatton fans and floyds obvious handpicked oppenents. I have made my decision to choose hatton to win. yes i know i've more often gone against floyd cause I haven't like his oppenents since chico and castillo. I've kinda grown on hatton after spending a night with a hatton career videos my buddy gave me.
If floyd wins it won't be easy, i think hatton has his number though.

Re: Ok, I'm not convinced.
Floyd has to be favoured but Ricky has more than a fair chance

Mayweather has fought some very good opposition i think its unfair to say he handpicks opponents some of his fights at Jr Welterweight were handpicked i agree but other than that his opposition has been pretty good. And forget if Hatton has grown on you this is not what boxing is about you watch both fighters you see who has stylistic advantage thats Mayweather you compare there opponents. And Mayweather has fought plenty of swarmer's before where as Hatton only fought one fast fighter and struggled badly so is Hatton really prepared for Mayweather's speed ??

Re: Ok, I'm not convinced.
It is too tough of a fight to call for me. If the referee is restrictive to Ricky, he will lose. If the ref gives Ricky a get out of jail free card, he has a shot of fighting dirty enough to throw Floyd off his game plan.
I have a feeling the "Third Man" is going to dictate who wins this one.

its not just becuase i've grown to like hatton, its how his going into this fight. he looks mean and ready to do everything he can to beat floyd. Like I said I spent a night watching hatton, and he can be a very nasty or dirty fighter. Floyd has his own dirty tactics too but i believe hatton is a physical little devil. I know your a floyd fan, i once was too but don't take it that bad for floyds past few fights i've gone against him and yet his still undefeated. Don't worry Ice, floyd won't probubly dissapoint you ;D

Re: Ok, I'm not convinced.
I did watch quite alot of Hatton's fights but i could never get into his fights because i don't like the clinching and the messy fighting.

There's always a chance...& I always stay open to the possibilities...but I would honestly be shocked if Hatton manhandles Floyd the way that his fans believe he will.
That being said...I think that Floyd could lose the fight if he lays back on his normal "figure ya out in 5 plan".

Really? I think that Floyd's faced better or as good as Hatton has...before or after Kostya.

I totally agree here.
I say that it's a messy ass night & a buncha work for Floyd.
Leads me to agree with ICE's statement below.

I hope that the ref scratches the clinching.

Heh heh heh.
I wouldn't be either.
Hatton's a likeable enough fellar & he's a hell of a fighter...but it just depends on what you like in your fighters.
I like a more technical savy & tactical boxer while most people like gutty pressure/power fighters.
It's all in what you like a two rights don't make it wrong. ;D

Re: Ok, I'm not convinced.
Even if Mayweather loses which he won't, i won't stop being a fan alot of people can't understand why im a fan of Mayweather but when he is at his best he is a pleasure to watch. Its like poetry motion to watch but that little speech i just done won't matter because Mayweather is going to win anyway.

Re: Ok, I'm not convinced.
JULIUS & ICE!!!
You are both on this thread...so this is the only way that I could getcha's.
Have you had any trouble recieving PM's lately?
I've tried PMing you both & either something's wrong with me box or the fact that you both have quotations in the middle of your names is botching up the process.
Just trying to figure out what's what & where?

:coolclick: in another 24 hours.
Totally agree. He is something else when he's on point. Rarely have I see Floyd out of his game...& if I have...it aint been for long.

Done.

Re: Ok, I'm not convinced.
I wish I could share your view, Julius, but with a 2" height disadvantage and more worse, 7" reach disadvantage, I think Hatton needs all the luck in the world to beat Pretty Boy. It's Pretty Boy's opponents who'll need all the advantages, not the other way around. But it'll be really freakin' if he did win. Who knows, right?

Ice, all of his fights at 140 were hand picked. Corley, Brussels and Gatti; the weakest champ (in hindsight or not), with NO attempt at unification?
Boo man. Just plain boo like.
His fights at 147 are pretty selective too. I mean, no tall guys, no guys with reach, weak champions (again)...
Even Hatton, no matter how much it pleases me that this fight was made, you can’t deny that it was made at a time when a) the demand for it had simmered down and b) the opinion that Hatton will crush Mayweather has pretty much all but been eradicated.
Maybe an overstatement but you see my point.
Floyd has had a much guided career of late, i've not doubt of that.
-
Re: Ok, I'm not convinced.
Well your certainly entitled to your opinion, hell that makes this place what it is. Hatton is an exciting fighter when he is allowed to get away with some of his tactics not to mention a hell of a nice fella. I think Floyd is on a whole other stratosphere in terms of ability and skill though.
I guess I sum it all up in my signature line ;)
