    The "Mayorga approach" I like to call it. Althuogh Mayorga IS one hell of a brawler.

        I seriously doubt it. They wont acknowledge his win. They will constanly downplay him saying he is to ****y or some other lame bull****.

        Watch and see once the fight is over.

          the reason why floyd doesnt get the credit some think he deserves,is because some think he cehrrypicks his fights.

          others call it good business, and smart thinking.

          personally im caught in between.. he is without a doubt p4p numero uno, but he could have had a tad better resume. im not saying its bad, far from actually. but could have been better.

          let me ask the thread starter a question, why should he recieve more credit for beating hatton. hatton best wins are against ageing tzsuy and castillo.. dlh is much bigger the hatton.. you tell me, what does hatton bring to the table, that dlh doesnt..??

          dlh had ringsize, glovesize, his mommy as judge and tried to gain every advantage possible, hatton aint gettting **** in those departments, this will be on floyds terms..

          if floyd crushes hatton, i will be impressed, but if he again rollercoasts his way to a victory, then the credit he gets, wil be average, and rightly so.

                Castillo and Corrales weren't in their prime when floyd fought them, floyd's a bum who never moves up weight and fights class fighters,

                Hatton is a real man, which is why he defended his WBU about 40 times against proper fighters like Ben Tackie and Mike 'no joke' stewart.

                  I like what ficksy said.

                  end of thread really.

                    This is the sort of nonsense that negates any point you may have had.

                      imo hatton would have ko'd both castillio and corrales at any point in their careers. Hattons the best Floyd has fought imo
                      Floyd is a class act, theres no arguing about that
