I know Hatton isn't going to be able to pick off shots coming forward like De La Hoya did so well, and I know he doesn't have the jab of De La Hoya but he won't relent and he'll make Mayweather pay if Mayweather leans against the ropes with his elbows up.
Hatton has been made look bad before at 147, but honestly, Hatton didn't take Collazo seriously. He'll take Mayweather seriously, and he won't be getting flatfooted like he did versus Collazo.
I take Mayweather to win in a very good fight. I think Hatton has a better shot then De La Hoya though.
i give him no shot. mayweather is to good...
and Graham is a S*** trainer... it was claer after the collazo fight hatton seriously lacks certain thing, one of them ebing able to move his head to slip a jab to get into a fighter... it's to late now, to NOW try and teach hatton to be able to slip mayweathers punches to get into him wont work nto enough time... he is goign to get hit to hell and will have no idea what to do when he cant walk in and hold onto mayweather to work the body... floyd will stop him, ricky will be finished... i'll wager closer tot he fight that hatton wont win so much as one round...
i used to be a very big hatton fan, i still like him, i do... don't change the fact floyd is the best in the world and as long as he takes this serious enough and trains it he will do to a fella p4p fighter that no one else has ever done before... there will be no past their prime excuses nothing, both p4p the weight is irelevent, both will weigh in roughly on the night at their best weights, the extra 7 pounds wont favour floyd, the weight etc for floyds style will be meaningless...
This is boxing i know, anything can happen.. it doesnt change the fact that i give hatton no chance at all, the lucky punch that can change fights wont happen, floyds to pro to let hatton get such a punch off...
