Does Ricky really think he can beat Mayweather?

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

I thought you were a fan of Floyd Mayweather like me or others, who are not blind in front of logic.

But this post qualifies you as a nuthugger. Hatton is unbeaten, younger, has one of the best chances to beat Mayweather among active fighters and you think that he KNOWS he is going to get beaten... you just posted garbage.

wmute,

I'm the most reasonable cat you know.

Hatton was offered the Mayweatehr fight a couple of years ago. They said that, "style-wise", they knew they weren't ready for that fight. OK, Fine.

Hatton was offered the Mayweather fight early last year. They said that they felt that they needed tune-ups before taking a Mayweather fight. OK, Fine.

YOU TELL ME: What has Hatton done, who has he fought, what activities have prepared him in the past year for a Mayweather fight?

I was being dramatic and hyperbolic in my post, but the essence of it is true. If Hatton wasn't prepared last year, how has 12 rounds with Urango and four rounds with castillo prepared him?

Last year, he knew he wasn't ready. But after beating Juan Urango (a virtual Mayweather clone, right?) RH is suddenly sure that he can beat The Floyd? I'm not buying it. At all.

Keeping in mind that the singular advantage that Hatton was bringing into the fight was possibly a strength advantage...and now that is gone.

Hatton's people wanted the fight because the economics were right, and NOT getting PBF into the ring would mean millions lost.

Do you think PBF would make a "winner take all" purse? Would Hatton?

side note: You say "younger" like there's a meaningful age difference.

Hatton's pressure and hit and grab style might make it "interesting" but I think Mayweather knocks his ass out. Hatton knows he's never been in with a guy who is close to as slick as Mayweather and even though he's very strong Hatton's no bigger than Mayweather.

I think Hatton's main objective will be to cash the hell in on the 10 million dollar payday and try not to look like a fool.

Mega - effin - ditto.


The bets that I have been making are not for FMJ to just win. I'm betting that Hatton doesn't see the final bell.

we will see

about the only sensible thing you said.

I am positive that Hatton is not sure he can beat PBF, he even said that.

However he thinks it is in his possibility, and he has one of the best chances out there, because he has a few stylistics pluses compared to others. He has to know that and, being a boxer, he has a boxer ego (although he is a humble fella). The combination of this gives him some sort of confidence. Being never really hurt, unbeaten and spectacular in important occasions also helps his confidence.

I am sure Gatti did not feel that way.

can we have a serious discussion ...

explain to me , how ricky is going to win this fight ...


of course is going to crowd mayweather a lot but ricky is also going to take a severely deadly beating , Baldy tried to crowd mayweather and he got embarrassed ... ricky is all hype ...


Collazo gave him a lot of trouble and u think floyd cant beat him ??? lol we will see

i believe he does think he can beat PBF by pressuring him... just as anybody who thinks he just runs... that's gonna be hatton's mistake... cause he's got no technique to give floyd angles and hit him at all... i just hope that floyd doesn't fight with no hunger as he's done lately

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

people only say tszyu and castillo were past their best because they were so comprehensively dismantled by someone who'd never fought at that level before

No. People say they were past their best because Tszyu was 36 and inactive. And Castillo had failed to make weight in previous fights, suffered badly in a war, and looked crappy in his set-up fight with Ndougodojudogu...

Dispute that.

[damian5000]

.If it's a done deal.......I recon you lot must be putting some big dollars on the PBF victory then.....
Nah ....second thoughts.....your probably not...

As long as the odds are -300 or better I'll have AT LEAST 5k cash on Mayweather. I hope all the Europeans already here, and the 10,000 coming from overseas bank hard on their boy.

Man, your tilte says it all. NO, Ricky is putting his lagacy,record,and standing in his chosen profession because he DOESN'T think he has a chance. Get the **** outta here man. Only Nutlickin groupies see Mayweather as an invincible superhero.

I watched this kinda **** with Jones nuthuggers, Then Hopkins nuthuggers and just like those two, Floyd will fall when he finaly faces world class competition. Call, DLH,JUDAH,CORELY BALDY, world class all u want, truth is everyone of em would get smoked by the current crop of prime fighters! Hatton is the best fighter Mayweather will have faced since leaving 135, and he is not even the best out there!

get real with the nutlickin floyd stroke job posts!

If Hatton was only looking for a payday he would fight De La Hoya. If he expected to lose against Mayweather then why wouldn't he clean up at 140? He could win four fights and make the money he would make for fighting Mayweather, without having as tough a time.

Hatton was afraid of Mayweather according to some of the chumps on here, now he's taken the fight he's convinced he can't win and just looking for a payday? Straws. At. Clutching.
