While I understand the people saying his job is to just win, to heck with being exciting. Look at it this way, if every guy fought like Mayweather or guys like Andre Dirrell, boxing won't be around long or at least the big paydays won't.

The sport would be just fine.. It would be a better sport because we would get rid of the unknowleageable "fan" ("floyd is a running ***** boy, etc") ..
How many wars has Oscar Delahoya been in? Take All of Oscar's biggest fights. Tito... Shane 2... Hopkins... How exciting were those fights?

PBF practices the sweet science like no other - to hit and not BE hit. No-one does this better -this is Floyds style, and fair enough, he has every right to "run" if he so wishes. Considering he pulled in the ppv's and the cash for the DLH fight and the fact he's gonna make a bundle from the Hatton fight is also prove that people are not bored by PBF. So thats the end of that argument.
Now for the main topic at hand - Yes. PBF should really be training hard, but its not as if dancing is an easy thing to do. Its still physical exercise, still strenuous and hard cardio-work. I think aslong as PBF keeps a couple of hours away for technique and tactical work he would be near enough just as prepared. Instead of skipping for several rounds, PBF has danced for and hour or 2. etc.
What im trying to say is - PBF will get his stamina training and his fitness up through dancing. His technique will also be honed at the same time.
It is a risky idea tho... i hope it doesn't pay off and Ricky knocks his arrogant "thug-life" head off. Up Rick Hatton!

Mayweather just wants to be a star. haha. Im not a huge fan of him either, but he's still gonna beat hatton in a boring fight. Mark my words. Hatton will clinche and mayweather will just outbox him boringly. Dancing with the stars may be more exciting. haha

Still even with this distraction i still believe he'll beat hatton with ease and then beat cotto or shane. thus retireing the best of our generation and a legend.
