Well it worked for Oscar, Ndou, Castillo rematch didn't it ??
None of those guys are Hatton.

I thought it was an interesting comment because watching that fight again just made me realise Ricky has a MUCH better chance than I thought. And Ive been giving Hatton NO chance at all.
Read my comment again i edited it
Yeah and?

I couldn't give a S*** about Larry Merchant. I used his comment about Chavez success against Mayweather because watching that fight it was a good one where Hatton is concerned. I was thinking along the same lines.

Hatton is bigger and better than Chavez. Hatton will attempt to win in a similar manner. Hatton just might do a lot better than i thought.
Chavez was missing alot of his punches he was throwing about 90+ and 100+ punches a round and was landing very little percentage Mayweather broke up Chavez badly and the question is Hatton as effective as Welterweight ?? in his last fight at Welterweight against Collazo who was not really known fighter at that time Hatton was made to look average his punches didn't seem to have the power like they have at Lightwelterweight and he wasn't able to bully Collazo and also this was the first fast fighter Hatton had fought and Hatton didn't seem to deal with Collazo's speed that well and kept getting caught over and over i think Hatton will win some rounds against Mayweather based on workrate but overall Mayweather will break up Hatton and win UD imo.
I was looking for positives for Hatton from the Chavez fight. And they are there. You keep saying that fight is a guide to the upcoming fight but I can see Hatton watching it and seeing the positives. That's all.

As for Collazo, Hatton had some good excuses for his poor performance, I wouldn't put too much stock in that fight.

And I believe Floyd will win too - by KO/TKO.
