[McNulty]

you're making the UK sound likee a bunch of ignorant hoodlims....anyways...this is good news..i cant wait for PBF to beat up on the Hugging Hatton.

MILLWALL!!

Mayweather called Hatton out 3 times in the past. Guess how many times Hatton took the fight?

This is the 4th time. If Hatton doesn't respond now, it's beyond cowardice if there is such a thing.

You see the number of times a fighter calls another fighter out is completely irrelevant if they refuse to get down to brass tacks. Floyd rather tastelessly made public knowledge of Team Hatton's initial pay demands, but Floyd's team completely failed to negotiate. If Floyd wanted the fight there would have been a negotiation, not an "outing" of Hatton pricing himself out.

OH. Delahoya said it? That seals it then.

Floyd was on the ropes and Delahoya slapped ineffectively at Floyd's waist. Rounds and rounds were going by without Oscar landing any effective bodyshots. And I would respectfully challenge you to tell me which two rounds were Oscar's BEST bodypunching rounds and we can count up the punches.

Oscar landed a total -TOTAL - of 122 punches in the fight. But at least he did what everyone else failed to do: land 10 punches a round on Floyd.

I don't have a good enough memory of the fight to give you such precise information off hand but I have it taped and have been planning to watch it again anyway so I will get back to you on that. What I will say is that my impression of the fight watching it live was that when De La Hoya was landing body shots Floyd didn't like it and I think that as one of the three men in the ring at the time De La Hoya would be perfectly placed to know how his shots were affecting Floyd and to me the fact that Mayweather smiled when Floyd was hitting him more or less gave the game away.

Mozza,

Be careful.

I think PBF was , on some level, still concerned early about Gatti landing that ONE punch. Up to that point, gatti was probably the most dangerous puncher PBF faced.

But after eating punches from Judah and Delahoya, PBF knows that his chin is WAY good enough for anything that Hatton may land.

Ricky is in trouble. Seriously. This is a fight that Ricky should have (or still shouldn't) taken. Ricky is too small, too limited, too slow... just "too".

Hatton landing a body shot? When's the last time you saw PBF take body shots?

I saw PBF take heaps of body shots from de la hoya in their last fight. heck i saw pbf take lik 6 consecutive body shots from de la hoya.

in sayin dat, i dont think hatton is gona hurt him with the body shots, cause pbf took some good body shots from de la hoya n it didnt seem to affect him much.

hope this fight goes through, it should b a great fight, irrespective of who wins.

[heavy hands]

pbf wins this one easliy

Maybe you should do thorough research before spouting nonsense then. As a fan and a avid forum poster you owe it to us.

Are you at the wind up? It's ****ing ludicrous to expect people to recollect that kind of specific information from a fight they watched once, almost two months ago. What I have spouted is not nonsense at all, I have discussed an aspect of the fight and have stated a belief that Floyd was vulnerable to that attack.

I've posted this before & I'll post it again: What keeps popping up in my memory is the Hatton vs. Collazo fight. Midway through that fight Hatton seemed befuddled when Collazo started to keep a jab in his face. Hatton looked discouraged & confused because he couldn't adjust to the jab & the straight left that would follow. We all know Mayweather is a technician & will use his jab to offset Hatton from bullying in followed by straight rights & counter uppercuts to keep Hatton at bay. Collazo who isn't as skilled or fast as Mayweather was actually able to win a good amount of rounds back to back by keeping Hatton on the end of his jab. Hatton seems to be able to fight oly one way where Mayweather can adjust on the fly to beat his opponent. I can see Mayweather stopping Hatton because his face will be busted up if the jab is a factor.

If you feel so strongly about something @ least be passionate enough to be thorough. I always watch fights more than once so I know what I'm talking about.
