Both men have fault's but both men have learned to overcome them and use them to their advantage...
Hatton--His biggest fault may be the fact Hatton seems to be a one way or the other fighter...Either Ricky is the body attacking punching machine that leaves little room for an opponent to breath or he is the get off and hold Hatton that has brought him a lot of criticizm in the WW division. Even though it is a smart and fairly effective style for him....Hatton needs to combine the two more and learn to use the hit and hold in the earlier parts of his fight and wear guys down then open up with his all out assult....other then his being cut prone that is really Hattons biggest weakness....Because each style can be fiigured out by superior boxers...Ricky has yet to meet up with one....and stamina has been a good friend to Hatton...so all in all diversity in his style is Hattons biggest downfall and game hole
Mayweather Yes he is P4P the best in the world but everyone has holes in their game and Floyd is not the exception....Many are fooled between the fact he has the physical ability to compensate for them...Floyd has intimidation factor on his behalf...not power intimidation but the fact guys are so worried about making sure they can get to his level and not be outclassed when they fight him many throw away their whole game plan had coming into the fight....
Despite 24 KO's out of 38 wins Floyd is not really a strong fighter...his KO's come mostly from accumulation of punches and wearing his opponent s down with superior stamina....It is no secret Floyd is not a big fan of mixing it up rough...he is also a big fan of the ropes the place to beat him.....In the middle of the ring he is too fast and slick but on the ropes a guy can be rough with Floyd lean on him get off shots close....will they get off a lot of shots? no because he will find a way out but if a fighter is willing to push with arms tie him up push off get in a 1,2 hold wait for the ref to brteak up the mix and dig in the body until so Mayweather will wear down and get frustrated.....A perfect example of a style to beat floyd crazy as it sounds would be Hopkins...Hit anywhere get dirty...We have seen in the past how Floyd reacts to being bullied....and to beat a fighter do to him what he hates most...Mayweather is not the exception
