hatton vs mayweather 2

[Spicoli]

No thanks.Just watch a tape of 1st fight.Going on the premise.....maybe unfair but "your only as good as your last fight"....Lazcano was finding a home for those left hooks a little too easily.

Ok Floyd's biggest strenght IMO is his adaptability. Ricky gave him some problems in the first couple of rounds, Floyd made the adjustments and took over. What is Ricky going to do differently? He's fought the same way his whole career. Floyds only going to be better in the rematch, and this time I think Ricky's only going to take more leather to he face and hit more air.

PLUS, he should be worried about getting past Malignaggi, who IMO stands to give Ricky all he can handle.

that seems to be the main question with everyone i talk to about it. what if the 1st fight had been at 140 and hatton had been allowed to fight on the inside?

What difference would the weight make in Hatton's favor? What difference would would it make whether FLoyd weighed in at 140 or 147. People say "oh well Hatton isn't a real WW." Well hell, neither is Floyd. Look how many weight classes he's jumped in his career. He can win at WW because he's insanely talented. Ricky was less than stellar at WW because he is extremely tough but limited.

mayweather would win i reckon same as last time, you cant blame ricky for wanting the fight tho no one likes losing especially after such a good career unbeaten

[Hoggmeister]

i see what you mean, i suppose people just assume hatton wouldve performed better in his own right at 140 where hes comfortable.

Mayweather is retired.

Watch the Jesus Chavez fight and your see what happens with a swarmer who fights on the inside against Floyd Mayweather.

I don't think Hatton could of done any better against Mayweather at 140.

Hard question and depends on what you class as a swarmer, but the first fighter that comes to mind is ODLH.

Ricardo Mayorga
Felix Trinidad
Julio Cesar Chavez x2
John John Molina
Miguel Angel Gonzalez
Arturo Gatti
Yuri Boy Campas

ETC.

140 wouldn't have made a bit of difference, PBF started at a way lower weight than Hatton so it wouldn't have mattered at all.

Floyd was also dominating Hatton on the inside, so that wouldn't matter either.
