    i guess u got a hit of that bubonic chronic too?...
    You right that didn't come out right... I didn't mean Taylor punches non-stop.

    I meant it would be like fighting Taylor - Size wise.. but add non-stop punches to that.

    Buttom line, just not a good fight for Mayweather.

    The fight I would like to see most is Mayweather / Mosley.. both slick, fast fighters..

    A Mosley fight will make Mayweather look his best, while a fight with Hatton or Cotto would be a repeat of Baldy... (Not saying it will be the same outcome, just that it will be a one-punch and run Mayweather type of fight)

      ahh i see now. my bad. sorry to wmute too for bein a sarcastic ****...

      anyway, it may not be the best fight for floyd style wise, but no doubt he still wins a D, cant deny that. i think the best fight for mayweather right now is mosley, the most dangerous one is cotto. mosley will make floyd fight his hardest cuz of his speed and power, but floyd will do to him what he did to zab, break him down, round by round...

        I used to love Mitchell, still do. But I meant what you said, after the losses to Tsyzu, Mayweather and Cruz I just didn't think he was up to Paul's level anymore. And to argue that Williams beat a game Mitchell, would be like arguing that Gomez beat a game Gatti (who oddly enough, even when he was game, wasn't worth much).

          This fight doesn't seem very interesting too me, mayweather is a great fighter, but i don't like too watch him anymore since his two last performance. and ricky hatton is a good fighter, but his grabbing and holding and hitting is annoying. Anyway a slick boxer like floyd would give him problems. So floyd with a UD

            Yea Paul did 1000+ punches against antonio but what was his CONNECT %? You would have to lower that even more against Mayweather. He might have a problem with Paul's jab. Mayweather is a master at what he does, he would find a way to win regardless of the reach advantage. To be honest though; they both throw A LOT of pitty pat punches. I still like them both though.

              Landing is not the problem in this case...

              When you're have someone double your size in front of you who throws non-stop.. you will have a problem getting to him.

              Williams throws in combos.. something Mayweather abandoned fights ago...

              This "get one punch in and run away" will NOT work against Williams.

              Wake up people.

                A Hatton-Cotto fight would be great. I can only envision a total slug fest.

                  I see Hatton, I see Williams, and Hatton is faster than Williams. I dont understand how one could not see that.

                  I said prejudice because lots of ppl seem to dislike hatton.

                  but anyway really hatton is about 10x fast on his feet and notably faster with his hands (which is also normal since he is half of Williams size)

                    when has hatton displayed foot speed to say he is faster than anyone, he WALKS in and wrestles his opponent. his hands may be just as fast, fine, but overall, paul is a WAY quicker fighter.

                    dislikin hatton aint prejudice. i dont exactly really dislike him, i think he is not an elite fighter, but a good guy for those who wanna see a brawl.

                      I meant prejudice in the sense that many dislike hatton and dont acknowledge any quality he has.

                      he is not fast on his feet??????

                      are you kidding me? footwork is not only moving in and out, you know? ask Zoo if he was not fast on his feet. Hatton closes the distance faster than anyone, and that coupled with his handspeed is why he will make Mayweather throw a lot of punches.
