Floyd Mayweather back in full training...

[CGM]

If Hatton beats and looks good against Paulie.

Then Hatton v Mayweather at 140 would appeal certainly.

We know from previous experience Hatton was out of his league at 147.

I've never understood this argument. It may have been relevant when Hatton fought Collazo, but it doesn't make sense when applied to the Mayweather fight. PBF started at a much lower class than Hatton, and he has never been a true welter in terms of his weight. Even when he fought at 154, he came into the ring weighing 150, less than Hatton weighs (on fight night) for many of his fights which take place at 140.

Hatton lost to Floyd, and always will lose to Floyd, because Mayweather is superior in every single aspect of the game, including (as was demonstrated) fighting dirty.

The ref is also inconsequencial, Hatton was being dominated on the inside and was beat conclusively at his own game. They could fight at any weight and PBF would win.

OK, I'll try to explain. This "argument" is kinda like an excuse. It's a way to downplay his struggles. He didn't dominate when he moved up half a division? Well gee, it must be because it's not his division. A fight at 140 would be a different story? Easy to say, cause it's a story that will never be told.

The rest of your comments are spot on, particularly about Hatton being dominated on the inside.

When you look at the big names at welter right now.. williams/clottey/margarito/cotto/mosley

even if floyd beat one of those guys, something will be said.. so for everyone who is saying that he's afraid of these guys, if he won, this is what will be said:

Mosley: he was past his best as Cotto showed us

Margarito: he wasn't nearly as skilled to beat mayweather and floyd outclassed him like he "should have"

Clottey: overrated and lost to Margarito, big deal


That leaves us with Williams and Cotto.. clearly you can say, williams lost to quintana, and cotto lost to margarito so big deal that floyd beat them, but these are the two guys who are just about in their prime and are his best contenders right now.. So if he came back, that's who i'd like him to fight..

You can relate hindsight excuses to nearly any big fight if you split hairs enough.We see it alot after big fights.Personally,If Mayweather (Their I go with the if's) came back and mopped the deck With Margarito,Williams etc.I'd have nothing but much deserved praise for him.But to get into the ring with some of the ones mentioned would certainly be a step in the right direction for over all career Imo...insted of going backwards and squaring off with a guy in Hatton who he has already KO'd.

-If Floyd fights Hatton or Oscar again I would be 100% frustrated at him.
-Hatton can't beat Floyd, IN ANY WEIGHT! Having Mayweather Sr. in his corner will not make a difference.
-If Floyd beat Williams, Cotto, or Margarito I would give him FULL credit. If he beats Oscar or Hatton again, IT MEANS NOTHING! I just want him fighting welterweights not big names in other weight classes.
