    If Hatton can match floyd's speed then he's got him. If he doesn't have the speed then he doesn't have the win.

    Not many people can match Floyd for speed! and floyd is alot faster than Hatton.

    If he's TO dominant, then Hatton just wasn't a good opponent.

    I don't think he will outclass him by some 12 rounds but there is that potential and that is what would be said.

    For his purposes, he needs Hatton to come out and look really good but still manage to pull away with it by a few rounds.

    So, therefore, Floyd doesn't just have to win, he needs to be convincing. Against Oscar, Floyd definitely won, but the fact that it was a competitive fight left some people saying that Floyd wasn't as dominant as he should have been.

    So... how dominant does Floyd have to be for it to be considered a successful performance?

    Does he need to KO/TKO Hatton? Does he have to win 9 rounds to 3? 10 rounds to 2?
    Mayweather's fight with Oscar was competitive in that he doens't have the power to dominate like Roy JOnes jr. or guys liek that. It was every bit the boxing lesson Whitaker gave Chavez. Being able to dodge almost every punch a fighter like Oscar throws while landing half your punches is amazing, and a sign of dominance IMO if the guy is a defensive fighter like Mayweather. He did what he wanted to in that fight except maybe finish it before the 12th round ended while Oscar did get him to the ropes, which Floyd allowed, he didn't land even close to as much as he wanted to.

    Mayweather has been impressive most of his career, the nay-sayers will still be around no matter what. He could knock hattons head completly off his shoulders in the first and the credit won't go to floyd for being good, it will go to hatton being not so good. It's just the way things are for floyd which makes me wonder how long he will really continue to fight, there is really nothing else he can prove to raise his stock. There will always be the "sure floyd beat him, but to prove he's really good he should fight blah blah blah. Just my opinion guys.

    All he has to do is win and it need not to be a dhady desicion

    The crazy thing is that Floyd can do his usual thing and beat Hatton. Ricky would have to have a once and a lifetime performance to beat Mayweather

    If Ricky can't hurt him early on there is only one hope left , by going all out for the kill at 110% and maybe wearing him down, Hatton trains up for 30 hard rounds, so he can and will do that ;Question is can Floyd win going backwards and sidways for most of a fight, I think he's smart and smooth enough unless he gets caught hard.
    Worth a few $ bet on HAtton for a ko however you look at it.

    I have seen Ricky Hatton fading late in multiple fights. I have never seen Floyd fading late in a fight. Have you?

    There really is no reason for us to believe that Hatton's conditioning and stamina are superior to Floyd's.

    Well I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Hatton to match Floyd's speed. There's really no comparison between the two in terms of speed.

    Sweet Pea. Loving the avy. I had used the other Pernell S.I. cover ("The Best") as my avy on another site.

    I think if Floyd wins by a couple of rounds it will be dominant enough! As long as theres no controversy in the scoring & the win ain't disputed it'll be enough for me.

    True ,
    I think HAtton goes harder ,tries harder when something big is in front of him.

    Floyd is smarter so he doesnt tire becuase of it.

    We gunna get better odds from the US bookies, than doing tatts each week!
    Ill still have a couple $ on a ko from HAtton just for he!l of it.

    HAtton cant win a close desicion in the states against the states/worlds, best, hahaha he has to ko him or he will loose; even if he is ahead on the rest of the worlds cards.
    You forget its all $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and futures.

    If this is true, then Luis Collazo would have won a decision against Ricky Hatton.
