Ricky Hatton said : “I think Amir stands a good chance of getting Floyd now.
I don’t think Amir would have scared Mayweather with his last performance and that might help him get the fight".
“Amir was always on the move against Devon Alexander and Luis Collazo in his two fights before Algieri – and that might have put Floyd off.
“Styles make fights and Floyd really loves fighting big punchers because he can sit back on the ropes, roll his shoulders and slip the punches.
“But someone who might trouble him is someone who can match him for speed, someone like Amir.
“Amir against Alexander and Collazo might have put Floyd off but in Amir’s last fight I don’t think he looked quite as good and that may have helped his chances of getting Floyd.
“I hope Amir gets it. He deserves it. He’s taken a slagging and been KO’d a couple times but he always comes back and he’s never shy of a challenge. He deserves to fight Mayweather.”
He added: “The Mayweather fight was probably my favourite moment even though it was a defeat. That is because of the atmosphere in the week, at the fight and at the weigh-in.
“There were 30,000 fans who went across to watch me and it just seemed that Great Britain took over the whole of Las Vegas that week.
“The best pound-for-pound fighter in the world, who lives in Las Vegas, was like the away fighter that week. Some of the people coming in the changing rooms were crazy during my fights in Vegas".
