Ricky Hatton vs. Floyd Mayweather (public poll)

[MindBat]

man .... how the **** is hatton winning this poll? i hope the fight gets made so a lid to this blatant ridiculousness can be applied.

hatton gets carved in NASTY fashion, in the same way that baldomir, ODLH and gatti were served up.

mayweather could be the biggest little ***** outside of the ring that he'd like to, classless and all; but in that ring he IS a virtuoso (in the same mold of a mozart, yah, laugh bitches but its an accurate analogy) and the likes of ricky (salieri), CAN NOT hang with floyd.

this is another one-sided affair.

oh - just in case there was any confusion, i voted mayweather

I have to agree on this. Hatton is a good fighter in his own division. And at his level, he can certainly last the whole 12 rounds in his barroom brawl style.

To me, the fight won't come down to just heart, because Floyd and Hatton both got it, but it's gonna come down to who's more intelligent in that ring.

I see Hatton getting off to a quick start and accumulating points in the early rounds. That's if Floyd chooses to sit back until the right moment.

My questions are:

For how long can Ricky sustain the punching barrage he plans to dish out on Floyd? And...

What will happen if Ricky gets cut and swells up early in the fight?

I Dont Know If Its Me Or What But I Just Dont See Floyd Being Anywhere Near As Skilled As James Toney... I DONT SEE THIS INVINCABLE MASTER. He Tries To Do The Things Toney Does But Toney Is On A Whole Nother Level.. Toney Dont Do **** .. Dont Run ,dont Hit The Heavy Bag Dont Eat Right.. All He Does Is Spar And Hit Pads... I Dont Think Skills Are Whats Getting Mayweather By I Think Its The 8 Miles Per Day At 6 Minutes Per Mile And His Conditioning...

Floyd Mayweather has also never been outboxed quite like Toney has. Floyd Mayweather has more skills all around than Toney and thats why he will be higher lb/lb in the end.

While I'll be rooting for Hatton I think PBF will stop him around the 9th or 10th.

Somebody's got ta say it.

Though, Judah was successful for a short moment.

Yes I agree, short moment, but he adapted and won the fight. Toney isnt as adaptable.

90% of the board will now be betting on Hatton voodoo man

**** off.......I have been an excellent fight picker over the years but yes....I've ****** lately.

Right. Not very many fighters can adjust their strategy on the go effectively.

Most stick to their fight plan drawn up in the gym, and run into trouble when things don't turn out quite as planned.

The corners are usually clueless as well
