What?!? Hatton vs. May weather? Cotto vs. Mosley?

[PL]

Mayweather whoops Hatton easily. Mosley beats Cotto in 12 rounds. Low blows definately had an effects on the Judah fight. Williams won't have another meaningful opponent for awhile unless De la Hoya decides to fight him to prove a point. My 2 cents.

[PL]

Also. Wiliams could fight Cintron but they both seem more interested in Shane Mosley.

What?!? Hatton vs. May weather? Cotto vs. Mosley?

Man where do I start off on this, I haft to say these match up’s will not impress me. I love boxing but woo, there are way better matches they can come up with. I see why Mayweather Jr. vs. Hatton is being made up. The little jabs Hatton throws in Mayweather’s face. Look I would draw up the reasons why they should not fight but as I was writing a friend of mine on You tube, I had to send it in parts since I wrote to much to even send it in one Pm to my friend. Look but here take a look at this

WHY THESE FIGHTS SHOLD NOT BE MADE

Hatton-Mayweather- Okay we know who is going to win this fight right? Especially at 147 right? Now I know people will disagree with me and say Hatton has a great chance. Sorry no that’s incorrect. I know he has a nation on his back as his fan base is just huge, but that wont help and it was proved by Mayweather when he fought Oscar De La Hoya. De La Hoya had a better chance then Hatton, they fought at 154, a big weight class for the smaller Mayweather, still won and took the victory home. I wish De La Hoya would of knocked the turd out of Mayweather but that was not the result. Mayweather went up and beat a bigger guy, now Mayweather naturally is around 140 or even lower. Now he is going to fight a guy who is really naturally smaller then 140. Hatton looks like a great man and I take nothing away from him but what can he do that can actually beat May weathers Defense and speed? I don’t know maybe if he does the clinching thing that he did against Castillo but I am sure they will warn Hatton for clinching this time aggressively. Mayweather wins easily

Mosley vs. Cotto- To me Cotto is not the real deal to me, I mean he has some great wins but he has fought fighters that are in the B & C level. When Cotto fought Zab Judah the first rounds, I had Judah winning. I was rooting for Cotto for the fact Judah was talking real big thrash before the fight, but what I saw was Judah was going to knock him out I say around the 6 or 7th round. Though the low blows helped a injured Cotto, then the elbow which ultimately lead Judah to his destruction. Now the way the fight was going before the low blows & Elbow. Judah looked like he was about to show this match was just money in the bank. Not taking away from Cotto cuss anything can happened in the squared circle. Cotto did not impress me against Judah, I feel a rematch should be done immediately.

THE FIGHTS THAT SHOULD BE MADE

Mosley vs. Mayweather- Mayweather is one of the few people who can actually beat Mayweather in my mind. Yes him and Winky Wright but Winky is in a whole different picture now. Mosley has been basically calling Mayweather a coward before he fought De La Hoya, with whatever results Mosley wanted Mayweather. Sadly we saw Mayweather beat De La Hoya. Now Mayweather wanted to go to retirement. Sadly he is supposedly coming out of retirement but still against Hatton? Hatton has taken a few jabs at Mayweather but what has Mosley done? He’s even went far as saying Mayweather is growing feathers now.

De La Hoya vs. Hatton- Nation against Nation, two giant fan bases against one another. It would be a great payday for Hatton, A great win for De La Hoya. I see De La Hoya winning but either way Hatton has a way better chance to beat De La Hoya then Mayweather.

Where does this leave Cotto?

Cotto vs. Paul Williams- Paul Williams impressed me more with the victory over Antonio Margarito then Cotto did over Judah. I see Paul Williams winning this fight.

There you have it what you guys think? I’m so sorry if you can not understand anything I just typed. I typed it up real fast. I don’t mean to sound like a hater or anything it’s just I don’t want to see those match up’s being made.

Why should De la Hoya vs Hatton happen in last 4 years Oscar has losing record Oscar doesn't deserve to fight Hatton these are great match ups and i can't believe you think there not.

[boozeboxer]

No way that Mosely beats Cotto. I love Mosely and he is one of my favourite fighters but I honestly don't see anyone, including Mayweather defeating Cotto. Cotto is a fighting machine. I give Mosely mad props for taking this fight but see it as ultimately his retirement party.

Mayweather will probably beat Hatton but hey, we can always have wishful thinking.

Personally I don't want to see ODLH fight again. With his inactivity, hobbies (GBP), and age; I don't think he is that relevant of a fighter anymore. He should stick to getting matchups made.

[Hairdoo]

Mayweather v Hatton in my eyes is just tying up loose ends. If PBF wins then he has finally proven himself to be the best at 140.

147 is a different animal.

When Mayweather beat Baldomir he won the lineal championship and by popular consensus is considered the number 1 Welterweight at present but... I believe Mosley, Cotto, Williams and Mayweather are all argueably tied for the top spot.

When Baldomir beat Judah it was agreed by most that Margarito was the number 1 Welterweight and a tougher challenge than Baldomir. Now that Williams has beaten Margarito and is still undefeated, as a belt holder his claim to the spot has some substance.

Cotto's 1st fight at Welterweight was an undefeated champion and in his 2nd title defense TKO'd Judah, something Mayweather didn't accomplish. As an undefeated belt holder his claim to the spot has some substance.

Only Forrest (who is campaigning as a Light Middleweight) has ever beaten Mosley at Welterweight or lower, before that he was undefeated and had more success against ODH than Mayweather so consequently his claim to the spot has some substance.

In my eyes the top 6 Welterweights in no particular order are:
Mayweather
Hatton
Cotto
Mosley
Williams
Margarito

With Williams beating Margarito, Mayweather v Hatton and Cotto v Mosley lined up we could safely say that in 2008 we will find out who the best Welterweight is.

If Cotto some how gets past Mosley then Oscar will jump all over a Cotto fight, it will slightly vindicate his losses to Mosley and be a massive PPV draw so that could slow down our little tourney a bit, still who would’t want to see Oscar meet any of the above names? Except Mayweather that is a fight I never want to see again.

I actually think Hatton could lose to every single one of the top Welterweights there all wrong him Margarito too big Cotto hits too hard and throws devasting body shots Mayweather too fast Mosley too fast Williams too big.

First off... I dont see why anyone talks so much trash about Cotto. He is a pitbull. Saying an elbow destroyed Zab? Cmon. Thats just rediculous. Zab always craps out halfway thru the fight. Shit happens in the ring, get over it. Saying DLH is too old? Hes 34. He is still a top contender. The fight with Gayweather was just plain stupid. It was obviously for money and nothing else. The whole fight was stupid unless you like seeing someone run for 12 rounds straight.

Anyways, to the upcoming fights... Mosley has only had trouble with people that always come forward. Hence Forest and Winky. Other than that.. he dominated. DLH fights were close. Cotto always goes forward no matter what and every body shot is a potential killer. I see Cotto coming out on top. The fight will definitly be action packed. Mosely has a shot for sure tho. I think Cotto/Williams would be nice to watch but I just dont see Williams being able to stop the body shots. Cotto/ Margarito could be a good one.

Gayweather/Hatton... What to say about this one... Gayweather is going to run like a punk ass bitch for the whole fight just like he always does. I see Gayweather winning that way tho. I really hope to see Hatton knock the shit out of him tho.

I honestly dont think we will ever see Gayweather fight Mosley or Cotto. Or anyone else that has a real shot to be honest. He is afraid of losing. His time is coming and he knows it.

Perfect example of someone not seeing enough Floyd fights.

Mosley has trouble with fighters coming forward?! And you use Winky and Forrest as examples?! Shane had trouble with fighters who are rangy...like Forrest and Wright. Cotto is a pressure fighter but he is not a fighter who likes to use his range...and he is not as technically skilled as either Forrest or Winky. Cotto is going to try and make it a rough fight, a war....and he will fighting someone who is faster, more skilled, and yes...even stronger than him. Add to that...Cotto is chinny...and it equals a bad night for him. I am not going to discount Cotto....he is young and hungry...but he is in over his head in this fight.

[inzel]

Haha, Ive seen almost all Gayweathers fights. Hes afraid to get hit. You say it all underneath your name. You are obviously a fan. No point in talking facts with you. Wright rangey? You dont know what you are talking about. They both fully pressured him the entire fight both times. Just watch em before you argue about it. Mosley has been my favorite boxer since before you even knew who he was. Im not dogging him, Im just speaking factually. Everyone counts Cotto out. Its a mistake. Im not saying that Mosley cant win. As a matter of fact I said that he has a shot for sure. I would just put money on Cotto.

[zhubin]

I have watched the fights. And yes...Wright can be rangy. Both Forrest and Wright used their range and size to frustrate Shane...Wright using his outstanding jab. Shane also likes to pressure...and neither Wright or Forrest allowed him to get comfortable or get close. I would never say Cotto has no chance. He is a young and strong fighter. But his style doesn't match up well with Shane. Cotto is going to want to trade and come forward....well....Shane is the faster fighter who also pack a punch. Cotto doesn't have a great chin nor a great defense. Does Cotto have a chance? Sure he does. I just think he has a small one in this fight.

So i can't be a fan and be unbiased ?? and you can't talk facts with me cause im a fan ?? what actual fights have you seen of his then he isn't afraid to get hit he uses great defences like Willie Pep did like Whitaker did doesn't mean your afraid to get hit it just means your smart whole point of boxing is hit and not get it and why are you doing childish comments like Gayweather ?? actually i don't think i can talk facts with you when your doing childish comments like Gayweather.

He's right, Mayweathers style isn't running, it's all about how he lets the guy invade his 'area' with his footwork, he lets hits opponent move towards him, then they throw a shot, and he covers up and leans, and using his arms and his shoulders he'll make a gap by nudging the guy, then when he see's an opening he'll throw, usually he'll land then move again and reset, its called boxing. Obviously he doesn't do it all the time, but it's certainly the blueprint recently for fighting at 147 + Oscar. Back in the day he used to do everything, watch his fights with N'dou, Chavez, Gatti, Corley and most of all Chico Corrales (R.I.P), he used to be incredible to watch, absolutely jaw dropping at times, he was much more aggressive, I hope that Floyd comes back against Hatton because that would make a very excititing match, I also feel that would give Mayweather a better chance at winning because Oscar was winning rounds with his pressure fighting (Not one of Oscar's best weapons) against Mayweather, Hatton (A much better pressure fighter) has the perfect style to win against Floyd. Castillo also showed the way.

Totally agreed you get from me couldn't of said it better myself its obvisious this guy hasn't watched alot of Mayweather's fight otherwise he wouldn't be that Mayweather runs all the time Ndou fight is perfect example he stood toe to toe with Ndou especially 5th round which was a great round one of the rounds of that year.

[slk123]

Well guys, I've seen almost ALL of (G)mayweather's (big lol to inzel) fights and I can state for a definate fact that his motto is "hit only if you know you won't get hit" and not the typical "hit and don't get hit". Mayweather will quit before taking a real challenge. Taking the DLH and Hatton fights are the only props he'll get from me. (DLH fight is only slight props though). LOVE DLH but a few years too late.
