If Floyd beats Hatton then Hatton lost to the number one pound-for-pound guy. Hatton has literally nothing to lose by taking this fight. He isn't expected to win.
What I will think of him depends on what he does next. He may retire or take on a couple of fights against nobodies then quit. More likely is that he will take on Malignaggi, maybe Witter, clean up at 140 and maybe take on Cotto in a big money battle then call it quits.
If Hatton loses to Mayweather how would you all think of him? I'm just curious.
I wouldn't be surprised lolz. Hatton is a slow and doesnt jab. Hatton will try to hug but will get hit with 2-3 punch combinations. So PBF by U.D or K.O. I am 100% sure hatton will get beat up as bad as gatti did. Since he is much slower.
If Hatton beats PBF,,,,
Hes P4P the best....
With Costa Tzyu, PBF, Castillo blow out, undefeated, 2 weight world Champion..
Got to be.....
Who else you gonna pick...
There will still be hate, guaranteed! And the usual 'past his best' line will be thrown in.
If PBF wins he can retire with one if not the greatest records in modern times.

It depend on if and how PBF will beats Hatton. If PBF makes Hatton look like Gatti or if PBF beats Hatton like the PBF-Castillo I fight. I would give Hatton a lot more credit for the latter.
on the flip side though what if floyd loses??
does hatton become #1 p4p lol?
and floyd retires?
I believe that he should. To be the best you gotta beat the best. I want hatton to win but I got a feeling that floyd is gonna win cause of his boxing skills. Hes not gonna let Hatton get away with that hug shit. Whenever he comes in he's gonna hit ricky with 2-3 punches and then gonna move out the way. Hatton has got the style to beat floyd but I don't think that he would be able to use it against him. But at the same if he wins man that shit is gonna be crazy.
If floyd wins his fans will give him the respect he deserves, and all the haters will make up some excuse, thats why I hope this fight is at 140. If hatton wins he should be number p4p 1, unless winky beats hopkins, I think hatton should be number 2 if that were to happen.
he is losing to the #1 p4p if he loses..... cant think to bad of him really bernard hopkins lost to RJJ we still thought great of him (atleast i did/do)
