Honestly, my mind says Mayweather will win but my heart says Hatton will knock Mayweather out.

How do u see Hatton landing a ko punch on Floyd? If De La Hoya, Castillo, Corrales, Judah etc couldnt, how could Ricky?Originally Posted by brucelee
Have you seen how Hatton knock Castillo? De la hoya hasn't knock out Mosley, how could he knock Mayweather?My point, against a slick fighter, DLH is known to be ineffective in his punches.I need not reason out about Corrales and Judah.It's apparent.Originally Posted by eagle

So thats your argument that Hatton knocked out past his prime Castillo and Oscar couldn't knock out Mosley how would he knock out MayweatherOriginally Posted by brucelee
Aren't most boxers known to be ineffective with there punches against slick fighters isn't that why there called slick fighters.
point, against a slick fighter, DLH is known to be ineffective in his punches.
So is Hatton ever seen Collazo fight ??
If web forums would have been around in the 50's and 60's you could have said the same thing about Ray Robinson...and they would have written the same thing about Robinson fighting Carmen Basilio....yet he lost to LaMotta, Fulmer, and Basilio. Yes, Ray was past his prime, in that fight, but Basilio wasn't as good as Hatton. Swarmers can steal decisions. PBF can give away rounds...I don't think Ricky WILL win, but I think he MIGHT win, and if he does, it will be close and debatable, and I promise Ricky will lose the rematch.Originally Posted by DaxxKahn
Good point,We Do Not Relize How Good we Have It With Technology and Instant Info at our hands.as I said ,I see hatton Gameplan MUST be To get In Floyds Chest,Mug every part Of His Torso and Must sustain a Fast Boby attack .Floyd Will Look To Step aside & back ,The Most Dangerous Time For Hatton Will Be here As Floyd can also dig to the Body,followed by L.hks to hattons head.IMO,I Think The Head Should Be an after Thought For Hatton.
Every Man can be beat..en'up.Its Not about One punch power,who hurt who so therefore A+B =C.It Is So Important to have reflextion and to look at history and have an understanding of what was said,seen,and learned from past boxers.with respect,I'll Hold Off On calling Hatton Better Than Basilio(IMO,hatton has a loooong way to go)as he has not yet even faced his "all time great fighter" (maywither) let alone beat Him(Which he willYou Know,This Is Really Going To a great fight.
The main question begging to be asked for me is not whether Hatton has the skills to beat Mayweather, but rather does our forum really need to rely on postings from that shitty 'other' forum to stimulate us and give us topics for discussion?![]()

We just took it and made it worthy of REAL discussion.Hey,the fights still going to happen.
If Callazo gave Hatton problems, Mayweather will score a knock out.

Collazo fights nothing like Mayweather so I dont understand your logic. Hattons biggist problem with Collazo seemed to be that he was a southpaw and had a good reach and a good gameplan. Floyd will give HAtton many problems but I dont see Hatton getting KOd assuming PBF is as cautious as hes been lately which I think he will be.Originally Posted by TheDukeof74

I completely disagree with this writer's statement.Originally Posted by ICE COLD BOXING
In fact, I would argue that Ricky Hatton is the exact OPPOSITE of the type of fighter who can beat Floyd.
There's this old idea that a smothering body attack is what neutralizes speed, and I've always disagreed with it. A jab and reach is what neutralizes speed. And this is why Hatton has very little chance of winning, because he's a short fighter with short arms and no jab.
Hatton will have to chase Mayweather and try to smother him, which leaves Floyd with the opportunity to just back up and counter. That's what Floyd does well, and he'll do it all night.
This guy's argument is all wrong. The style that can beat Floyd is a tall rangy fighter with a strong jab. Ricky Hatton is not a tall rangy fighter with a strong jab.
like castillio in 1st fight?Hatton will have to employ what it is that got him here.The first 4 rnd s of fight with judah support your belief as floyd was on the end of zabs snap & speed.I think hatton will bring the most pressure floyd has ever seen and will suprise alot of people with his hand speed (no,he can't match floyd here)but in company with power he will have success in making floyd set down in his counters and clip the wings from his feet.Originally Posted by SweetPea
Both guys here will be taken to hellish spots.hatton,early on will have to absorb some sharp shots(I think floyd will bring some nasty uppercuts)and be the toughest mentally he has ever been as getting popped in the face gets old quick.I really see him cutting floyd down taking his legs by taking his body(and hips) and floyd will have to set down & open up.short pressure fighters can have success against speed and here hatton will,IMO.In this specific case,I'd feel pretty confident about what it will take to beat maywither if infact he has been beaten before.so we look at what has given him problems in the past and this solidifies your case of speed & range beats speed &range.I just think floyd will be caught in between styles and his ribs and ego will be there for the BEATING.Hey,as long as theres no fight ending headbutts and cuts![]()
As has been argued here many, many, many times, the first Castillo fight has little or no relevance to anything. That fight was a long long time ago, and the Mayweather of 2007 is a different and better fighter than he was in 2002.Originally Posted by Jeff Spicoli Surfs In 'Nawlins
Ricky Hatton would be able to give the 2002 version of Floyd Mayweather some problems. Unfortunately for Ricky, he is not signed up to fight the 2002 version of Floyd Mayweather.
Hatton has problems with slick fighters(Callazo) Mayweather is a hell of a lot slicker than Callazo, Hatton could possibly be stopped via TKO or cuts.Originally Posted by BoomBoom
