Floyd is about a 3:1 favourite in this fight. The reality is that he should be about a 7:1 favourite. This fight is a very bad mismatch.
If Floyd decides to win an easy decision, he will. If Floyd decides to administer an ungodly battering to Ricky, he can do that and stop Ricky in about 8 rounds.
If it's a decision, and Ricky just looks outclassed, then he will have some options. No shame in losing to the best. Perhaps Delahoya, perhaps Malignaggi, or Judah or some other "name". The winner of Witter/Harris would be available.
If Floyd does what he can/should, then Hatton's career will be in jeopardy and RH will have to go fight some overblown lightweights or gatekeepers back in MEN arena for a couple of tune-ups to reclaim his confidence. Delahoya is out of the question. Why would Oscar go face a smaller guy who had just been blown out badly? Ricky's career is in Floyd's hands. It all depends on HOW Floyd decides to beat him. But on 12/9, Hatton is likely waking up in a local Vegas hospital. With his first loss.
You mean Like Floyd Fighting Sharmba Mitchell or even Zab Judah????
