Mayweather went up 5 weight category's and became champ in all of them! And made history along the way.
Hatton went up to face Collazo and got humiliated and ran back to 140 and now after beating an old,shot Castillo everyone thinks he's all this.....shame
shows the hatred u guys have for Mayweather.
If they fight Mayweather would win a wide decision.... if Collazo gave him problems Mayweather would make him look silly....If Oscar couldn't beat Floyd....what makes u think Ricky can?!
thanks-bye
If Callazo's speed gave Hatton a spanking... Mayweather would humiliate Hatton!
Yes guys Hatton makes exciting fights and whatever but i cannot believe so m,any of u are picking hatton to beat Mayweather
just like how all of u said Tyson will ko Lewis in round 1 lmao
Styles are the difference here.
Mayweather is an excellent boxer. His style allows him to move up in weight without to much trouble because he doesnt depend on his strength or his power.
Hatton does. If he doesnt have enought strength to bully a bigger guy around, and his power in ineffective, then he isnt going to be succesful.
Hes almost to small to be succesful at JR WELTERWEIGHT, but WELTERWEIGHT is to much and you could tell by the way Collazo TOWERED over him

man this is a dumb ass thread. its too many of these. i have mayweather beating hatton by wide ud. hatton defense style? what defense style. he wont catch mayweather to hold him all damn night. that shit will not happen. furthermore mayweather see this dude hold and will definitely make contractual stipulations to prevent this ***** from holding him. that is not fighting. *****s talk about floyds style. this is worse. floyd may evade and move to keep from being hit and he may even not be aggressive but he will not get his ass beat by hatton. his pride wont let him if anything. but dude has skills. we will all see

So are you saying.. THAT being a Hatton Fan.. instantly qualifies you as a Mayweather hater?????
That is pretty presumputious dont you think??
And I think it shows who REALLY is the hater here..
Why do people persist in making such stupid threads phrased in such a stupid way.
Nothing PROVES that Mayweather is better than Hatton. PBF's accomplishments demonstrate that he has had a better career than Hatton SO FAR. The only thing that proves that HE himself, personally IS better than Hatton is beating him in the ring. Which he hasnt done yet, thus...no proof either way.
Did they?
I sure didn't..
I had Floyd to win that fight.
Ricky Hatton is the only active fighter who has a defense as good as Mayweather. The thing is, what he does IS NOT legal. lol. It is a good defense no kidding really, he doesn't get hit alot. But makes for horrible shows and anyone who says the castillo fight was a good show was high imo. Mayweather would beat all fighters in WW and up to 147 today, in his prime. To beat Mayweather they would have to bring another Roy Jones or something even then it's not sure. Sluggers can't do much although Ricky's style has a very good defense, only illegal and won't happen to often if he keeps fighting in the US.
Hey how about a little k1 rules in? Like yellow card (10% purse OFF) for "no action"/holding penalities" (and i don't mean the stick and move thing)
Hatton has power and fast hands. It's a shame he does what he does.. He never been tested to the limit (always had his opponents tailor-made for him) so we can't really say he's bad. Maybe a Cotto Hatton? Should already have happened (no Zab, no Castillo). Notice good fighters only fight good figthers when they are done with the sport (can risk losing/want last big paycheck) which is a shame. Only happens in boxing and it sucks. We never get the fights we wanna see cept for once a year or so... This year i like the Hoya Mayweather fight, was balanced. Oscar was older 4 years but he was fighting an opponent new to the division and had gloves/ring made for an inside fighting. Although it could have happened sooner (Oscar shouldnt have retired at all in 03 i think). Cotto Judah was clearly a fight for Cotto. Hatton Castillo was even worse of a matchup and the Kitschko - Brewster is clearly a fight for Klitschko, although the revenge factor weights here and maybe this is worth seeing. I wish boxing were about the championship and all the money were around the belts. This would end corruption. No give away titles to "interins" N'dous and other shot fighters so Cottos and Hattons can easly be "champions" and sell bigger. WTF?

Mayweather was never champ at 140, just like Hatton was never the 147lb champion.

I also agree bro
Thankfully real boxing fans know Ricky is nothing to floyd!!!
i think most hatton fans would agree mayweather is the superior boxer, but i cant think of anyone that can match him for sheer talent...but hatton can be underestimated technically, it wouldnt be boxer versus brawler, id definately pick mayweather to win that, id kind of see hatton boxing a bit like DLH did...
There is no comparison Hatton is a very good fighter but PBF is not very good PBF is a great fighter. His defensive skills are sick, he can do it all in the ring. I didnt think he could beat DLH but he did, he is the most skilled fighter out there hands down.
I couldn't care how many divisions Floyd went up. He's a ten stone fighter at best and this is his peak weight. So winning at other weights and looking very ordinary is no indicator as to why he beats Hatton. At 140/147 Hatton has the tools to beat Floyd. He has the stamina, chin, body attack and relentless pressure to give Floyd big problems. If Castillo almsot beat Floyd, then Hatton I feel wears him down, closes the gap and smothers Floyd all night while breaking him up on the inside. Does anyone believe Hatton will allow Floyd to lay back on the ropes and mess like Oscar allowed him?
From the looks of your first post in this thread you have Floyd to win if he meets up with Hatton, but you say Hatton has a solid chance.
Well, I'm extremely uncomfortable with Hatton and this issue surrounding 147.. I think it's a dark cloud to put over a fighter, and his people made a mistake by invoking it..
The flip side is; that puts even more fire under Hatton, and the kid seems to thrive on pressure, bright lights, and big opportunity.
Not to say that Mayweather doesn't.. But I think a saw a few stitches in his seams when he fought De La Hoya.. The big stage got to him a little..
So, I have Hatton to win.
Sometimes it's a physical angle, sometimes it's a tactical one.
(.......I started off cookey on this so I might as well stick with it..)
In this case I think Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather are both men with incredibly great spiritual power - men with super spirit. :firedevil
It would be a Leonard Hearns type of struggle, spritually.
Possibly physically.
Here, I think the metaphysical stuff will be the key. :fing02:
They are both powerful like I said.. But Ricky Hatton is more the natural predator, and Floyd Mayweather is more the natural prey.
Not that prey isn't dangerous.. In the animal world, like in the Boxing world, a creature is never more dangerous than when it is wounded, or on the defensive. (I.E. Mayweather vs. Corrales)
And Floyd could win... He should win!
But I don't think he will.. For some reason..
Ultimately, these two could bring out the very best in each other.
Floyd is in his zone when he's being attacked, or falls into it..
And Hatton goes ape shit when he reaches the pearly gates.
Mayweather went up 5 weight divisions because he has the style and physical attributes to do so. Not to mention he cherry picked his way from 140 upwards.
Hatton is more capable of beating Mayweather than anybody. I've been saying it for years. He has better footwork than De La Hoya, throws more punches and sustains more attacks. This combined with educated pressure and aggression and the pro-Hatton crowd... Mayweather is in for the hardest night of his career.

I personally, wouldn't dispute the fact that Mayweather is the superior..
Although I do think Hatton has an excellent chance to beat Floyd.
Styles do make fights after all, and Hatton has the right style.
Maybe the perfect one.
