Hatton: "Winky Wright came in to my dressing room after the fight - after Russel Crowe - and told me that this time next year we'd be rated as the top two fighters in the world providing that Mayweather and Hopkins fight us. He's a good lad."

Ricky on the biggest night of his life still acted like a fan by asking and despertly seeking for someone in his dressing room to take a picture of him with russel crowe, he was like 'russel take a picture'.

That's what I was thinking. Pretty Boy would probably be too much for him. He's definitely better than Tsyzu is. I think so, anyhow. He hits pretty hard, and he's super fast. That'd be a good fight to see, though.

I dont know fix, Castillo is the same type fighter as Hatton.
Without a doubt Castillo won their first fight and the second was close, Hatton might surprise PBF but its unlikley.

not to mention maybe the best defense in all of boxing right now. PBF by late stoppage

PBF is my favorite boxer going these days, but even I have to admit that Ricky would give Floyd serious problems. He could be to Floyd what Duran was to Leonard.

Ricky is tenacious and I do believe he'd rough Floyd up. At the end of the day though, I'd still put my loot on PBF.

He's so damn skilled. It'd be a good fight, for sure, because Ricky has a lot of heart, but I think Floyd would win by stoppage, or a large UD. His hands are fast, too, so he might be able to cut Ricky up early with a flurry.

Winky shouldn't get Hatton's hopes up like that.

Damn, now Mitchell has a damn good chance to get the IBF title if he jumps back down to 140.

Floyd wants to be undisputed and said after Gatti he wanted Zoo. Since Zoo lost he well most likely go after Hatton.

Castillo won, period. Everyone knows it. There would have been no rematch if everyone didn't feel that way. Mexican crown had nothing to do with it. There were plenty of Mexicans the 2nd go-round and ppl knew Floyd won that legit. Floyd was not landing 4 to 1 in ANY round vs Castillo in the first fight, at least if you use compubox, or any other home-method. Floyd ran the first fight, like a *****, although he may have had a hurt shoulder. In the rematch he won fair and square, so congrats on that.

hatton would be a bad style matchup for mayweather (pressure and bodywork good way to put a boxer in trouble), but this pbf's combination of skills and natural abilities is mind blowing so it is an open fight
