Another factor to remember is that Mayweather superb defense is based upon lateral movement and hand movement rather than foot work. (Although i acknowledge the pretty boy has exceptional footwork too) However his primary defensive manoeuvers are the movements from the waist, his "Mayweather shell," and pivoting a spin to the right before moving away. This sees Mayweather often being located on the ropes, usually dazzling us with his movement and mesmerising blocking and parrying. However, on the ropes Ricky will be for one area body and chest, and the pretty boys style will actually allow hatton to set himself. Granted Mayweather will adapt, but the initial point is that with the correct volume and approach, Hatton can land.
