Who do you think would win? I dont think shane has the stamina at 36, going on 37 in september, to be able to handle the non stop pressure that floyd was able to handle from ricky...
Cotto has fought at 147:
Carlos Quintana - 23-0
Oktay Urkal - 38-3
Zab Judah - 34-4
Shane Mosley 44-4
Floyd Has Fought:
Sharmba Mitchell - 56-4
Zab Judah - 34-3
Carlos Baldomir - 43-9
Ricky Hatton - 43-0
Cottos best win was shane, and floyd best was Ricky
I think beating ricky hatton was the best win out of floyd and cotto AT welterweight...
Im saying AT Welterweight
I think Floyds resume at WW is better than cotto's with the ricky hatton win... regardless if ricky is better at 140.... floyd started out at SFW... and floyds the smallest WW out there...
7 pounds doesnt win a fight IMO
@147??? Mosley takes it either late knock out or tko on cuts...
Mosleys speed and power would prove too much for hatton, and to be honest I can't see Hatton being able to rough up mosley around the ring how he likes to do with his other opponents which would further frustrate hatton just leading to another defeat for him.
But it would be a good fight for us to watch...
hey maybe im wrong... im not afraid to admit it... im not saying shane CANT beat hatton.... im just saying its definitely possible for hatton to beat shane...
SOLELY BASED ON > hattons pressure and shanes age... nobody can at least "see" what im saying here?
Hatton couldn't handle Mosley's combos or power. I've always said Shane is one tough motherfucker. At his age he still looks great, he just fought a younger boxer coming into his prime in Cotto.
And yea weight does make a significant difference, especially the way Hatton takes care of himself when he's not fighting.
Hatton would have trouble with any of the WW out now. He's better off at Jr WW.
Wait wait, is this about Shane vs Ricky or who has the best resume at WW?
Basically it all boils down to who faced the better comp at 147. Floyd or Cotto. The question stems from a disagreement that me and Reedickyaluss had in another thread.
Hatton would eventually KO Mosley in the later rounds. Mosley would get fatigued by the constant pressure and he would be KO'ed
yeah, no.
at 147 hatton has only shown to have no presence.

you say that as if floyd is nothing compared to mosley?
speed and accuracy has a lot to do with the effectiveness of a punch...
and stamina has a lot to do with holding up against the pressure of a hatton...
if mosley beats hatton... it wouldnt be as good as floyd did...
no, of course floyd isn't nothing compared to anybody
my point is shane is stronger, and still fast. not only that he has a higher activity rate than floyd, so id think hed hurt hatton more, if not sooner
baya your from DC huh?
im goin down there end of the month... my buddys throwing a "leap year" party LOL.. havent heard of that shit have you lol

U said "if mosley beats hatton... it wouldnt be as good as floyd did"
Opinion? U wrote it as if you had no doubt in your mind.
i dont have any doubt in my mind... just like i know floyd would make mosley look like a grandfather.... but ITS STILL AN OPINION
nobody can... its obviously an opinion???????????? :wtf:
U said "if mosley beats hatton... it wouldnt be as good as floyd did"
Opinion? U wrote it as if you had no doubt in your mind.
Now how can u accurately predict how good a win Shane would have over Hatton, if they were to fight? Who says Shane doesnt finish Hatton off within the first 4 rounds.
