Until someone can beat Floyd, he is my pick. No one in that group is as skilled as Mayweather. Only one way to find out...

Hatton is. Hatton beat Tzyu the man who ruled the 140 lbs division for a decade. It does not matter what potentential or anything else Mayweather or Cotto have. Tzyu was the man in this weight class for a decade. Former undisputed champion, went through all contenders like Mitchell Judah etc... Hatton beat him, that makes him for sure the king of 140 lbs until somebody beats him.

Until somebody beats Hatton he is number I at 140 pounds. Hatton is the linear Champion. Everybody else in the division that has belts has them because Tzyu vacated them.

Skill wise, Mayweather is on a different level than Hatton. As many openings as Hatton leaves vulnerable I just don't see him being able to be as effective with his aggression as he was with Tszyu. Easy way to answer this is to check the pound for pound rankings. Everyone has Floyd in the Top 3 while Hatton just entered the Top 10. Only way to truly solve this is for them to step in the ring.

You can say Gatti or Mayweather can beat Hatton in fantasy matchup all you like. It does not change the fact that Hatton is the true Champion of 140 since he is the one who beat Tzyu, The Linear Champion and former undisputed Champion until he vacated several of the belts. If Mayweather or Cotto or Judah beat Tzyu then they would be the true champion but they did not, Hatton did. When did the rule that if you beat the Champion you become Champion become nullified?

I agree, Hatton is the King of 140lbs. in terms of accomplishments. He beat the man. Mayweather only beat DeMarcus Corley and Henry Bruseles at that weight division so he can't be considered the king in terms of accomplishments. Skills and pound for pound ranking, I'd say Mayweather, though.

HAHA certainly not Floyd. UR NOT the 140 king by beating Corely and Brussels. If anybody its Hatton by default, but i think there is none right now. Hatton has to beat the winner of Gatti/Mayweather or Vivian Harris depending on who good Harris looks June 25th. AND it is certainly not that Cotto fool.

An elim fight they have now still wouldn't decided it.
I think a Gatti and zoo fight would be awesome

Gatti can beat maywether if Gatti slugs it out like Hatton did to Zoo.
Mayweather likes a slow paced fight so he can use the left shoulder and leave his right hand high. He'll get exposed in a slugfest with his style. In a slugfest Roger has to drop the right hand to throw punches and that is leaves open his biggest weakness in his style, an exposed rightside jaw.

If Hatton rematches Tszyu, Tszyu will be the king again.

Until then, the one and only KING is Hatton.

We all know that Floyd is skillful, Gatti has a huge heart, and that Vivian Harris is young and powerful, but that is not enough.

Mayweather hasn't achieved much thus far in the 140lbs division and therefore can not be considered a king yet.

So fellas, you can't take the status away from Ricky Hatton.......he definitely deserves to be as he beat the man who dominated the division for a decade.....

Zoo would not easily beat Mayweather. Also Mayweather will never get exposed because he fights only one style of fighta nd has the skills to take other fighters out of their game. The dismantling of Gatti will be a little preview of what Hatton has to look foward too.

Mayweather will also Ko Hatton after a few tough rounds. He is to fast and is to accurate for someone who walks straight in.

I have to say Hatton is the linear champ and therefore he is king even if he is still relatively unproven. I think he needs to beat the Mayweather/Gatti winner and Cotto to put it beyond any doubt.

PS. I didn't leave Harris out by accident.

I don't think it'll be a toss up between the two. Floyd beating Gatti doesn't come close to Hatton beating Tszyu.

I know Gatti has a lot of fans and he is an exciting fighter, but he looks shot these days. He won't beat Floyd Mayweather.

If Floyd wants to be the king at 140lbs Then he has to dethrone the king at 140lbs, and that means taking on Ricky Hatton.

What has made you think Gatti looks shot these days. All these early round KO's he has been coming up with lately? Is that it?

If I could see any fight at 140 it is Gatti vs Hatton. I think Gatti and Hatton are the best in the division. I think Gatti will beat Gayweather. Hatton vs Gatti would be a total brawl. Both Hatton and Gatti though have underrated boxing skills.

Gatti's level of competition is terrible for a WBC champion...

I've seen Gianluca Branco fight a few times on Eurosport and he's not really a very good fighter... yet he took Gatti to a close points descion.

James Leija is OLD OLD and tired... As is Leonard Dorin...

As soon as Gatti steps in the ring with someone under 35yrs of age and a bit more talented, (i.e. Mayweather) he's gonna look extremely old and shot. You'll see when the two fight.

Gatti is gonna whoop Gayweather. Gatti is a more dangerous puncher than Hatton has ever faced. And Gatti will stand and FIGHT with Hatton which In my opinion the best way to go about beating him if you are fighting him in Manchester. You cant let yourself get bullied around and look to counterpunch like Tzyu did. You have to stand and FIGHT this guy.

at first i thought it would be nice to have pfb and KT fight each other. now i think hatton proved to be worthy in place of tszyu to fight mayweather to settle this issue.

although floyd is cosidered very excellent as a boxer, let us not forget that sluggers are best at creating problems to boxers

How can anybody be against Gatti. The guy is a true class act, and a carries all the honor of a Gladiator from the Colleseum in Rome to the modern day. Every single fight he leaves it all out there, he never quits, he fights to his death or to his opponents like in the old days.

I dissagree with you... Gatti is there for the taking.

I'd rate him about 7th or 8th in the division.

Mayweather maybe a little feather fisted, but he'll just toy with Gatti. (I don't like Mayweather).

I don't wanna sound big-headed, but I'm very rarely wrong with my boxing predictions.

I think Hatton would take Gatti out in 3 rounds. Hatton is 3 times the speed and half the "boxing" age.

Like I said, Gatti is there for the taking and has been for a while.

YOu are so wrong. So very wrong. Nobody is going to defeat Gatti without knocking his ass out cold or from the gift stoppage from the ref. Gayweather is gonna get knocked out and finally Gatti will get some respect. Nobody ever gives this guy any repect. He has beaten alot of high quality fighters. You say he is past his prime but lately he looks better than ever. Now he has a good jab and other assets.

Well I don't wanna pick holes... But you were telling me last week that if Tyson can get down to 220lbs he would rule the heavyweight division.

I tried to tell you that weight isn't gonna help Mike, he's a shot fighter.

I've been involved with boxing for many years, and if there's one thing I can see most clearly, it's when a fighter becomes shot.

Gatti has been involved in some GREAT fights over the years, and I love watching the guy fight... But he will not beat Mayweather. (Hey I don't like Mayweather either and it would be a fantastic end to Gatti's career to go out beating a guy like Mayweather, but it ain't gonna happen).

My Tyson weight logic is compeltely valid.

Tyson record below 220 pounds undefeated

Tyson record above 230 1-3

Why do you think Gayweather is so invinciable? He already lost to Castillo and got a gift descision. And in my opinion Gatti is better than Castillo.

Leija just won a hard fought decision against Bojado who was a very good prospect. Had he been as old as you say, Bojado would have ripped him apart. Tszyu broke his eardrum, Gatti knocked him out.

As for Dorin, this guy had plenty plenty of fight left in him. You don't get old cuz of your age, more of how much punishment you've taken in the ring and he's only had 22 fights. Unefeated who drawed with Spaddy where most saw him win then gets knocked out in two rounds.

Gatti ain't p4p king but the guy ain't as unskilled as everyone makes him out to be.

Dont you ever put Roy Jones Jr and GAtti in the same sentence. He is fighting Mayweather is he not. He fought De La Hoya he fought Rodriguez, Ward and a bunch of others at the top of the game.

Outside of Tzyu I would say with full confidence that Gatti has fought better opposition than Hatton.

Gatti's level of competition is terrible for a WBC champion...

I've seen Gianluca Branco fight a few times on Eurosport and he's not really a very good fighter... yet he took Gatti to a close points descion.

James Leija is OLD OLD and tired... As is Leonard Dorin...



Martin let me remind you that Gatti injured his hand in the 5th round of the Branco, he didnt quite break it but 6 months before Gatti did break his hand in the 3rd Ward fight and he reinjured his right hand against branco. So that would mean Gatti won 2 consecutive fights w/ only his left. Very Courageous and impressive.

And as a side note - with the past2 weeks in boxing w/ Kosysta quitting, Tyson quitting and Abdulleve quitting against Cotto. I guarantee the is no quit in Gatti come June 25th. And for that reason alone a might feel sorry sorry for floyd........

I agree... Mayweather is very beatable, but I don't think Gatti will be the one to do it.

And anyways I'm in a win win situation. If Mayweather wins, I get 13 million points... If Gatti wins, then I'll be happy that Gatti knocked out Mayweather, and I won't feel so bad about losing 13 million points.

Skill wise, Mayweather is on a different level than Hatton.


Thats just not true, skill is someone's ability to do something very well. Mayweather has a very tactical style(which is often called skill) but that doesnt mean his style is more effective than Hattons. Hattons defensive ability often gets overlooked because he's such an agressive fighter, in the same way the young Mike Tysons did.

IMO Mayweather is the P4P king but naturally Mayweather shouldnt even be fighting at 140, so until he has a meaningful fight at the weight he cant be considered for the top spot in the divison. If he beat Gatti then its up for debate but Hatton is currently number 1 at 140.

shemmue
06-13-2005, 12:34 PM
Gatti can beat maywether if Gatti slugs it out like Hatton did to Zoo.
Mayweather likes a slow paced fight so he can use the left shoulder and leave his right hand high. He'll get exposed in a slugfest with his style. In a slugfest Roger has to drop the right hand to throw punches and that is leaves open his biggest weakness in his style, an exposed rightside jaw.


mayweather is one of the top p4p fighters in the world and its for a reason he knows that a slugfest is the only chance gatti has to beat him and he is not stupid enough to get into that type of fight mayweather's speed and boxing skills is what will win him the fight with gatti , although gatti always has a punchers chance i just don't see mayweather getting close enough to get caught with anything ..

Faded Tszyu?? :confused: he was considered unbeatable until Hatton got in the ring with him.

Hatton's the only champion who won the belt by beating a champ, all the other fighters are paper champs because they faced hand picked opponents in a title match. Hurtardo, Branco and Pinto are B level opponents, i'd go as far as to say Branco isnt even B level. Winning a belt that way is OK as long as you defend it against an elite fighter and the only person who's going to do that in the near future is Gatti.

Hatton is the king at 140, there's no doubt about that, the only question is can he successfully defend against the all the other brilliant fighters at the weight.

Hatton is. Hatton beat Tzyu the man who ruled the 140 lbs division for a decade. It does not matter what potentential or anything else Mayweather or Cotto have. Tzyu was the man in this weight class for a decade. Former undisputed champion, went through all contenders like Mitchell Judah etc... Hatton beat him, that makes him for sure the king of 140 lbs until somebody beats him.

Until somebody beats Hatton he is number I at 140 pounds. Hatton is the linear Champion. Everybody else in the division that has belts has them because Tzyu vacated them.

I have to agree, to be the man, you have to beat the man. Hatton beat Tzyu, he is now the man.

Gattin beat Dorin easily and Dorin wasn't shot. If anything Dorin was rusty, but well rusted and not shot. Basically, if Gatti was shot, he would have looked it already, and he has not. He's past his prime, but not shot. No evidence to support that. If he loses to Floyd it's cuz Floyd is better, not cuz he's shot.

Anyway, Hatton is the king of 140 until he is beaten, plain and simple. Hatton would tear Cotto a new ******* in my opinion, but it would be a great fight until Cotto is TKO'd.

Why do you think Gayweather is so invinciable? He already lost to Castillo and got a gift descision. And in my opinion Gatti is better than Castillo.


Gatti is better than Jose Luis Castillo ?

That is some bull**** right there. Arturo Gatti has spent his career avoiding guys like Castillo !
His fight with Floyd is the only time ( except for the Oscar fight....& my mother would fight Oscar- knowing the $$$ to be made)Arturo Gatti has ever stepped up.

I dunno if he will be... I think he's too small for 140lbs and he's playing with the big boys now.

If Hatton was able to walk through Tszyu's best shots, then there is no doubt at all he'll walk through anything Mayweather can throw at him.

He'll get close to Mayweather and Hammer the body! And Hatton will throw Mayweather around the ring like a rag doll in a clinch.

I just can't see Mayweather winning a fight against Hatton.

Don't get me wrong, I think Mayweather is probably the most skillfull boxer out there at the moment... But he's not gonna be able to handle a young, hungry, strong, fully loaded 140lber the way he's dealt with 130lbs/135lbs fighters before.

Beating an shop worn fighter like Gatti is one thing... But beating a 26yr old Champion like Hatton is quite another.
