    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.

    lunging in head first with no grace or technique and wrestling ur opponent isnt exactly what i would call super fast..

    i aint sayin hes not fast, but it is my opinion, OPINION, that paul is the quicker over all fighter.

    mayweather would box circles around him, ricky's got no D, he's a brawler, kinda like an upgraded version of gatti, and he will get an upgraded gatti-like beating if he steps in there with floyd. dont mean to dis ur boy, but it is what it is, sorry.

      I, also, would like to see Mayweather fight Williams, but not until Williams beats Cotto and Mayweather beats Hatton. These undefeated fighters have to start going at it while they're still in their primes. Otherwise, we may never know what could have been.

        hatton has little D but he comes in with angles, and no one else in the sport gets on your ass as fast.

        it would be cool if your opinion matched what your eyes saw

        you know what's funny? that if any active boxer is my boy, that's Mayweather. Different from others, I am objective.

        "Hatton an upgraded version of Gatti" is horse****... did you see the first rounds of the Urango fight? Do you see how Hatton uses angles? Did you notice he has side movement? did you notice that his wrestling takes skills (although its f-++-n' ugly to see, it's still takes skills)

        It is completely possible that Hatton is in for a beating, but it would be a Chavez-type beating not a Gatti-type beating. Hatton will not come out jabbing (and he is Flash compared to Gatti), he will pretty much try to enter Mayweather trunks and leave them in round 12.

        It so happens that the Chavez fight was my favorite Floyd fight, so I look forward to Mayweather-Hatton.
