You thought the Hatton-Floyd fight was close going into the 10th???
I said relatively close. Like he was down 3 or so rounds with 3 to go. If he wins those last 3 rounds the decision could have gotten interesting.
That's what I am anticipating, is this a good thing or a bad thing?
It appeared that fight was relatively close going into the 10th.
Hype wise, yes. Completey different outcome I expect though. That was a great fight, for the record. People like to make sport of Hatton because he was irresponsible and he got KO'd by Manny, but the man was a warrior, and a champion. I would walk with my head held high if 2 of my only 3 losses (he didnt need to try and come back) are to Manny and Floyd.
Hattons foot speed was insane, Madianas is much slower so he will not close the distance as fast..Marcos does hit harder,but his chin is much ore suspect then Hattons was at that time

Eh, I don't know. Hatton's hand and foot speed is superior to Maidiana's and I think that played a factor into how effective his pressure was early on in that fight. With Maidana being more of a slow, plodding fighter with less hand speed I honestly don't see Floyd having as much of a problem dealing with Maidana as he did Hatton. I had Floyd up 7-2 going into the 10th.
