Floyd will win this decisively. I know Rick is a good boxer and has good footwork and quick hands, but Floyd is better in all those departments. Hatton has heart, but so does Floyd or he wouldn't have moved up so many weight classes.
Floyd will let Rick get him to the ropes and open up uppercuts and body shots to Ricky. Rick leaves himself open right up the middle when he is trying to move opponents arms around to sink that hook to the body. No way Floyd lets Ricky get away with that without shooting up the middle and making Ricky tie up. Quick footwork will only get Hatton to punishment faster. Maybe Floyd will have too much respect for Hatton's body attack and make Ricky chase him all night; Floyd will just pot shot him all night. Ricky hasn't been cut for a while, but he hasn't fought Floyd yet either, and unless Ricky can do to Floyd what he did to Castillo, his face will be ruined. He barely squeaked by Collazo, and we all know Collazo ain't no Floyd. Floyd will win by UD at the least, though I think he'll stop Hatton, or the ref will have to stop it because his face will be a mess. Likely Floyd will tap that body alot to, so don't be surprised to see Hatton go to the canvas a couple of times. Everyone talks about how tireless Rick is and what good shape he comes in. Newsflash: Floyd trains harder than anyone, and is a superb athlete, and while Rick is chasing Foyd all night, getting more tired the longer it goes, Floyd will hardly be breathing hard and picking every shot without wasting anything. Rick should have stayed at 140. I'm rooting for Hatton, but I just don't see it. Hopefully he just makes it to the last round. Of course, I thought without a doubt Mosley would stop Cotto, so don't put much stock in what I say
