Mayweather can fight Hatton just as well on the inside as on the outside as his reflexes help him block and slip punches and then quickly counter with the right hand lead. If you watch the first Castillo fight round 10 i think it was where Floyd lost a couple of rounds prior and he decided to stand his ground and was fairly effective.
I wouldnt be at all suprised if Floyd stood in the centre of the ring and traded with Hatton. Now i cant see Floyd KO'ing Hatton as he doesnt have that kind of power but i can see him knocking Hatton donw a few times with quick counters catching Hatton off balance.
As for all this 'Hatton has too much heart, pride ect' that dont count for shyte its not gonna stop Floyd from slipping and countering punches. Arturo Gatti had heart and pride but his a** has been whooped on more than one occasion i would be suprised if any fighter out there didnt have heart and pride (im seriously doubting Jermain Taylor has it tho conidering his recent performances)
