    Hatton is full of it. When the time to fight Mayweather came, he ducked and ran. It's easy to talk **** when you're 2 weight classes away from the guy. Like Mayweather is ever going to come back down and fight him? No ****ing way.

      He fought a guy who was physically stronger, but simply wasn't in Hatton's league. I was very impressed with Hatton cuz I haven't seen that side of him since the Tackie fight, when he fought another guy who was stronger than him and made Hatton adjust. That is exactly the same way he'd fight Castillo, it won't be a war like many think. That isn't in Hatton's best interests.

You mnetion hatton as being bright well he is the dumbest bright ****er I've ever seen. how does he expect to get US fans by putting on boring mma fights. the difference between fighters like floyd and hatton is training, discipline, and skill level. in all three categories that mater hatton gets put to pasture
        You might have had a point.. Till you had to get all childish and say "wened:
        Thats just ****ing ******ed and blows your cred

          You may be right about his lifestyle. For a guy that I thought used to have incredible stamina and an iron chin he was wobbled a few times and he didnt look near the body punching machine that he was before.

            It makes me laugh how people can still say Mayweather would whipe the floor with Hatton. Hatton is all about movement, he's really herky jerky and somewhat awkward when he gets inside but he's all about movement - hand and foot. I think he would give Mayweather a hell of a fight b/c the pressure fighters that Mayweather has fought had neither the footspeed (Castillo, Baldomir, Chavez are incredibly slow on there feet) or the quickness of Hatton.

              You just said Hatton is all about movement and footspeed.
              Floyd is faster than Hatton, has better footspeed and better boxing skills.
              If Hatton tries to box with Floyd, he will get absolutly worked.
              His best chance is to try what Castillo did and bully him.

                It's a styles matchup. I never said he would try to outbox Floyd Mayweather but he has much quicker footspeed then Floyd's previous pressure opponents and that is the most important part when trying to win a fight inside. He also has very quick hands as you saw last night.

                    Yes, so, what is the point that you are getting at?

                      Your saying, hatton has great movement, hatton has great footwork, hatton has great handspeed, but Floyd dominates Hatton in every one of those aspects and Hatton in order to win will have to swarm and try to pressure effectivly, and not to box with him.
