Ricky tried to move up in weight but the way he boxes and his body are making it hard for him so he's done the sensible thing and moved to the weight he is good at... how is that chased exactly? Would you PBF fan boys say Floyd was 'chased' out of a weight division to heavy for his style of boxing or would you give him props for stepping up to a challenge?

As for Ricky's 'storm' not coming... I always though there where American fighters at Light Welter? or is it a rule that Americans only fight at Welter weight? The fact is that Ricky Hatton is the best light Welter in the world at the moment...

I still give Ricky a big chance of beating Floyd... Floyd is no where near as strong at the weight as Collazo because he's a natural ligh weight/light Welter like Ricky which would make Ricky's style a lot more effective.

You guys know enough about boxing to know how hard moving up weights can be don't you? You've been in a ring and understand what it can be like? Instead if using Ricky struggling to move up and Floyd's style making it easy for him to move up.... to make Ricky look bad...

How about using Ricky struggling to move up to make Floy'ds achievments look good?

(stop hating on Ricky, he deserves as much respect as Floyd)
Is it really that simple? His Style didn't fit WW or is it his skill. He moved up 1 class. Not 2 or 3. He can't handle 147 when the man walks around at 170 pounds that pathetic. Its saying that he can only beat guys smaller than him and he doesn't have the skill to compete with guys who are as big or bigger than him. I've seen great fighters move through multiple divisions but he can get through 1. Say what you want now but his plans were collazo,gatti/baldimor,and floyd. Those plans have suddenly changed. Why? Truth is collazo gave him all he can handle and he don't want no more. Hes leaving the division because that fight which leads me to say he was run out by collazo. And no he doesn't deserve the same respect as floyd. Floyd would give a rematch not run back to 140.
