    Does Hatton deserve a shot at PBF the man who is coming out of retirement...there needs to be a little perspective here...

    Ricky would have beaten p4p and arguably would take over as p4p in many boxing fans eyes...

    The question should be after such a lay off would he deserve a shot at Hatton....Maybe he could take on old Plaster of Paris hands in Mexico instead

    Erm ... what? Nevermind. There's not much in your "arguably" and the notion that Mayweather is somehow auto-diminished because he is coming out of retirement ... very strange assumption.

    All that aside, I'd like to see Floyd fight Hatton at 140. There would be no excuses. A decisive Floyd victory would leave little room for interpretation or spin. And posts like mofo's here would know what "perspective" is.

    I like Ricky but when it comes to Floyd, I am a believer. Not a nuthahugga, just a believah.

    There is nothing strange about the assumption that the man who arguably takes over as p4p and then has the cards in is hand,should decide who he would fight!!

    Thats common sense..

    I am in no way diminishing PBF's achievement..but he went..might come back..but is no longer in control of who he faces to the fullest extent!

    I agree a fight at 140 would be good..but to transfer Believer for Floyd nutthugger did'nt work

    Sorry ... Much as I like Ricky, Floyd's emeritus status as an ATG and the possibility that he might have GOAT position (something that he has come close to demonstrating but perhaps not quite absolutely proving) ... I think that is an objective perspective on Floyd.

    In contrast ... how many conversations are there about whether or not Ricky might be the GOAT, or what he must achieve to prove that he is?

    Floyd may not be GOAT but he is in any converstation about GOAT. Ricky isn't even a contender for the appellation.

    All Floyd has to do is step into the ring, and anybody within reasonable weightclass range is instantly assigned a very different title. Underdog.

    There is a reason for this, and it has nothing to do with my opinion of the matter.

    As far as nuthugging ... I believe that Mayweather did lose one fight, but was unfairly given the W.
