What does HATTON bring to the table DE LA HOYA dosent?

[dino]

other then holding, being realistic what does hatton bring to the table de la hoya dosent? i had de la hoya/mayweather a draw, being that mayweather laid on the ropes half the fight, but lets compare de la hoya and hatton shall we?

de la hoya is bigger, stronger, hits harder, better boxer, and not to mention de la hoya/ hatton wouldnt go 6 rounds, de la hoya would give him a brutal savage beating ala julio chavez.

only thing hatton brings to the table is quicker feet and rough house tactics.

SO PUT YOUR EMOTIONS ASIDE AND LETS DEAL WITH FACT! WHAT DOES HATTON BRING TO THE TABLE THAT DE LA HOYA, JUDAH, BALDOMIR, GATTI, DOSENT?

Stamina to smother someone for 12 rounds straight instead of losing steam in the alter rounds, if it lasts that long.

[The Noose]

Each fighter is dfferent. And Hatton and De La Hoya are very different. U didnt mention Castillo, which is the fighter most mentioned when discussing PBF-Hatton.

As a Hatton fan the hope is that his intense pressure and constant physical game can wear down and spoil PBF's usual fight.


Also it could be a Leonard-Duran type fight in the sense that if PBF fights Hattons fight he may just be drawn into a losing battle. Not that i think that will happen.
With DLH PBF played it safe, and took control from a distance. PBF likes his space and time, Hatton hopefully wont give him that.

Different style of fighting.

stamina
speed
pressure (de la hoya just couldnt keep up the pace the whole 12 rounds)
foot speed
hand speed.

power will belong to de la hoya easily.

hatton is also a better body puncher than de la hoya.

de la hoya didnt put too much into going to the body with mayweather but hatton will...and if cotto beats mosley and fights mayweather next he will do that as well.

when a fighter is quick and fast you go to the body to slow him down and if hatton (and his trainers are smart) they will figure that out and go in with that game plan.

as i said in another thread...

look for hatton to feint a lead right hand (to catch mayweather off guard since he keeps his hand low) and then look for hatton to **** a huge left hooks to the body.

he will do this to slow down mayweather and get him very cautious about leaving it open to punishment...thats when hatton can focus on mayweather's chin.

hatton (in my opinion) will use his youth to his advantage and keep the pressure on mayweather for the whole 12 rounds...always coming forwards stalking him...going to the body (to slow down mayweather) and then (in the late rounds) will work on his chin. thats how i see hatton fighting.

Better Stamina and a better body attack

[2120]

de la hoya is not a infighter
and his body doesnt complement that style of fighting tall and long arm
he doesnt have the stomach to fight a tought fight at this stage of his career
doesnt sound like someone that would be effective on the inside

all those thing i listed above is exactly what hatton does bring to the match against mayweather

de la hoya is bigger, stronger, hits harder, better boxer, and not to mention de la hoya/ hatton wouldnt go 6 rounds, de la hoya would give him a brutal savage beating ala julio chavez.

the only way that happens if the oscar of 1996 shows up and fights hatton

....Hatton should step up the rough tactics in this fight and not worry about a points win. He's a much better body puncher than Oscar and he will just keep coming. I think he should tap Pretty boy in the nuts a few times, catch him with an elbow or two and just plain rough his ass up. I would do whatever it takes short of a disqualification. I think Floyd could fold under the pressure of a rough rough fight and semi dirty tactics. It's the only chance Ricky has IMO.

o shut up *******, de la hoya hasnt lost a step sense 96, he's just gotten bigger, gained weight, and is slower, which is natural for anybody who gains weight and gets stornger, de la hoya now could beat de la hoya of 96. hatton's style is tailor made to take brutal punishment from de la hoya

ACTUALLY hatton had a better chance at beating mayweather a couple of years ago, when mayweather was a frail, bad hand 140 pounder, now that he's a little stronger, i dont think hatton has much of a chance.

hatton would look like this after a de la hoya encounter
