Mayweather & Hatton: Will 147 Be A Factor?

[Fox McCloud]

Oscar's garbage. Look at who hes fought lately for the past few years. He would get beat the same by Spinks.

And even at this point, yes I am saying, that Collazo would beat DLH. My opinion of DLH isn't even that high unless he actually does something OF NOTE.

So it changes from, "I never said that" to "Collazo is better than Oscar?"

If so, that's cool, that's your opinion, and we are probably going to just have to agree to disagree, because I haven't seen a wide body of Collazo's work.

Never seen Floyd tire. His conditioning is great, but his punch output is very low. One of the reasons why he doesn't tire and appears superhuman. Hatton will make him work for his money,...mark my words.

I didn't really think of the connection earlier. I think DLH sucks.

I mean look at his body of work the past few years.

Losses to Mosley
Loss to Sturm
Loss to Hopkins
Beating Mayorga at his unnatural weight (wow, something to really hang your head about)
Loss to Mayweather

..........Yeah.

Chavez threw a lot more punches than I expect Hatton too, Floyd didn't tire against him. His secret is accuracy. He didn't throw a lot more punches than he does in any other fight against Chavez, he merely made sure a lot of them landed, so he didn't have to keep up in punches thrown, he just made sure he was ahead in punches landed.

If Hatton can make him work, it will be a great, great fight, because we will have to see what Floyd does in that situation. He has never had to increase his punch output to keep up in a fight, and that will probably be Hatton's best chance to win the fight.

I agree with you that Oscar is overrated as well, but the same is true with Collazo... he's had 2 big fights, and he lost them both. One to Hatton and a near shutout against Mosley.

Oscar beat Vargas, which is something he can be proud of.

It is a different story with Collazo though, because he is still young enough that he could be an elite at some point and move on to the next level.

Yeah you should look more closely at Hatton's footwork. It's ****ing good. He is very quick and he cuts the ring much better then Chavez. He is the way better technical fighter...and the fight is two divisions north of when he fought Chavez.

Oscar's fight with Vargas was sick. That was the first time in a while he actually showed real killer instinct and JUMPED on a guy and finished him. I give him props for that win because Vargas was a REAL GOOD fighter when he was young. Real good.

And yeah, I take your point about Collazo. I heard he broke his hand in the 2nd round against Mosley. That could of been why he put on a shady performance. But then again it is just rumour. Can anyone confirm for me?

1. Hatton isn't gonna K.D PBF
2. Hatton isn't gonna K.O PBF
3. NO WAY IN HELL IS Hatton gonna out-point PBF.
4. ODLH who was 20 pounds heavier then PBF FIGHT NIGHT couldn't even hurt PBF. What makes you people think Hatton 140-147 will be able to??

I seriously don't know why many people are making a big deal out of Hatton Once this dude gets F'd up he better go back to 140 and fight in England. These words came from Paulie Malignaggi. MARK MY WORDS When PBF beats Hatton! He still won't get any credit!!!

Well said. I could not have stated it better. The only question I have about this fight is in which round will Larry Merchant start whining and criticizing Mayweather after Mayweather starts to make it a one--sided fight (I would say round three since I believe Mayweather will ko him in five). Hopefully, Max Kellerman will get this assignment instead of Merchant and we will actually here unbiased commentary.

This statement either means you never watched Floyd fight so you just talk out of your ass or your just ****ing ****** I let you pick because when have you ever seen Floyd tire?

I can think of plenty of eloquent retorts in this situation, but instead i'll elect to go with "Blow Me" as it seems more appropriate!

Suck ye olde !!!

Mayweather KO'ing any legit guy at this point sounds rediculous! Yeah, Max would be great until Hatton starts working Mayweather arse into a bloody pulp, then we have to listen to jarhead ramble on about how Hattons cheating!
