Mayweather & Hatton: Will 147 Be A Factor?

[FISTIC ART]

...................

mayweather has very quick feet also but if he cant hurt hatton and keep hatton from swarming him then he is just going to get outworked in a very ugly, boring fight filled with lots of holding and elbows. if you think mayweather can stick and move all night...you are crazy. hatton will be on his chest not allowing him to leave. the only way to beat hatton is to punch and brawl with him or dictate ring center and outbox him with sharper punches. Something Mayweather can do...but does he throw with enough volume to keep Hatton off him?? I dont know....because Mayweather is very economical and does not waste any punches.

I think mayweather will hurt hatton...and enough leather will put any guy down.... both fighters get their knock outs by attrition...hatton wont hit mayweather enough to get a knockout by attrition...mayweather however will land more than enough to stretch hatton............

Do you guys understand weights?

Floyd will never ever have a power advantage over Hatton. Its a moot point.

I keep saying this over and over. It's kinda frustrating that some of you experienced boxing fans have not grasped it yet.

Hatton likes to be "around 11 stone" (154) on fight night. So he said. He was 151 on fight night vs. castillo.

147 IS AN ADVANTAGE FOR HATTON. ALL IT MEANS IS THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE TO DRY OUT AS MUCH ON FIGHT WEEK.
When you are fighting a (naturally) lighter guy, getting the weight limit set higher is to your advantage. PBF will still be 148 on fight night. Hatton will be slightly bigger. Even if the fight was at 140.

140 vs. 147 is a NON-ISSUE, or a slight advantage for Ricky. If Hatton wants to trick his body and weigh in at 140, he is still welcome to do that. It would be ****** because all it means is that he drained himself when he did not need to. But 147 is a "limit". There is no "minimum" . Ricky can weigh in at whatever he wants to. 138. 141. 145. 147. It doesn't matter.

Why can't you understand this??

[EMPOROAR]

Yeah I agree with that.

[MJ406]

Dios you are right .. cuz Hatton by fight time is over 147 anyway. like vs Castillo ... are you picking a kayo also?

"enough leather will put any guy down"

yeah thats true. im just surprised you expect Hatton to get dropped 5 times or something.

thats a bold statement.

You so called boxing analyst in here are ****** and know nothing about boxing if you think weight is the deciding factoe on who's gonna win this bout. Weight means nothing. Smarts and overall ability is the key. Dumb asses!!!!

[SUGA_RAY_]

because we know from experience that ricky is faster at 140. Its his best weight. Just because he walks around heavy doesnt mean that he is in his best shape at his walk-around non-training weight.

The weight you are at at weigh in is your strength and speed decider on fightnight.

Mj i was trying to be funny..... its gonna depend on floyd ....if lfoyd opens up on ahtton he will knock him out...but hatton may go down 2 or 3 times before he stays down..... now if mayweather stciks and moves ...he might get a late round knockout....but i think itll be more of a unanimous decision if he sticks and moves.....

.................

because we know from experience that ricky is faster at 140.

So what if hatton is faster at 140.... mayweathers speed is light years ahead of hattons no matter what hattons speed is..... hattons speed will not be enough even if mayweather fights at half speed....lmaooooooooooooo

I agree about the weight thing......they could fight from 98lbs to 220lbs and mayweather is still gonna put a whoop azz on hatton....lmaoooooooooooo
