      This is the same thing they said about Roy Jones Jr. Its hard for a fighter who is at the top of his game and beats people with ease. Floyd makes good fighters look ordinary, which in opinion is the mark of a great fighter.

      Hatton struggled with Collazo in his last time out, so that makes him a great fighter?

            While Mayweather calls himself the greatest fighter of all-time, Hatton thinks that few historians will be watching Floyd's fights in the future.

            "In 10 to 15 years' time when you're a fight historian and you look on that shelf where all the great fights are, are you going to reach for a Floyd Mayweather video? I think Floyd is a far better fighter than Arturo Gatti but I think people will be watching Arturo Gatti's fights for long after they will be watching Mayweather's. He just never gets me on the edge of my seat," Hatton said. "I'm not bothered about being remembered as the greatest of all time but I want people to watch my fights in years to come and say, there was a guy who could really fight."

            Hatton aint ******, i can't imagine any historians reachin for a "MAYWEATHER vs GATTI/BALDOMIR tape" when discussing who was great in the past. not even a "MAYWEATHER vs Oscar tape" is going to show greatness on Mayweathers part.






            but maybe, a few clips from the late part of the judah fight and second castillo fight?...would prove that Mayweather was a great..?

            LOL...yeah, maybe. if your ****in drunk on Mayweather's nuts.





            I agree with Hatton that Mayweather is over rated, but I still dont think Hatton would be able to stalk Mayweather.

                um no..

                I like watching Mayweather fight now, I don't think her won the Oscar fight but, he is a exciting fighter to watch. Speed, skills, reflexes, and over all style make him that way. He talks trash outside the ring but, in the ring is very professional. Its mind games it even works on people watching lol. Hatton on other hand seems sloppy, slow, and has poor defense. His record stands strong but, as far as someone to watch...Mayweather all the way. I don't think Hatton would stand much of a chance against Floyd's speed and straight punching ability either.

                    Because...as he says...he's the best fighter in the world. Want to be recognised as a great fighter, thats what you've got to do.

                      I agree

                      Anyone who actually watched the fight can see that it was perfectly visable that mayweather won that fight, problem is you get people who clearly havent seen the fight say he lost,

                      115-111 mayweather. He Plus he clearly won the first 5 rounds and castillo had a point deducted.

                      There's your robbery.
