If Mayweather Wins....

[me2007]

By "exposed as a fraud", do you mean "on the P4P list for ten years and on top of the list for three years"?

That kind of "exposed"?

He's not top of any of my lists...apart from the one labelled 'dim witted midget who likes hitting women''

[Fox McCloud]

IT depends on how Mayweather beats him. If its another Rocky Balboa trying to catch the chicken fight decision, then Floyd still has a ways to go to live up to the hype. If, on the other hand, Floyd throws down and defeats Hatton, then alot of questions will be answered.

You never answered this:

Floyd wins his fights... he causes more damage to his opponents than they cause to him. I don't know why people criticize Floyd because he doesn't get hit... it seems to be an overall good strategy to employ.

Have you ever noticed that the exciting fighters are rarely P4P #1? That's because the exciting fighters get hit a lot, shortening their career, or causing them to lose.

I made the baseball analogy in another thread. Just because a team with a lead going into the 9th doesn't purposely put the tying run on base, does that hurt the game of baseball? No. Does it make the game a little more boring? Yes. But why the **** would anyone, in any kind of competition give away their advantages against their opponent? I can't think of a good answer, can you?

Point.........Game...........Match.

Of course floyd will get credit no matter what anybody thinks of Hattons in ring abilities. What matters here the most is Hatton's Identity.

The identity he will bring into that ring when he faces floys is that he is 43-0, that he is The Ring Magazine Jr. Welterweight Champion of the world and that he is recognized by the majority of credible people as a top 10 p4p fighter in the world. And of course Hatton is younger then floyd and is also in his prime.

Whether that prime will help him win this fight is a completely different issue.
Floyd will dominate this fight and retire Hatton Tito Trinidad style and add another Top fighter to his Resume. Case Closed........Bring on the Cotto vs Mosley winner

[EliteSoldier]

If Calzaghe wins, will everyone stop bad mouthing a guy who has beat younger opponents then himself? And he is still faster then the younger guys he fights, thats got to say alot about his heart and will. And his stamina is probably one of the best in the game.

Hatton is a good boxer, even though believe he will lose to Mayweather. Yes, it will be probably a tough fight for Mayweather and he deserves credit for beating the younger guy.

Dorian is avoiding me like the plague. He doesn't want to respond to what I have said, because he can't imagine his precious Kessler losing to Calzaghe.

No. They won't . Because even the Hattonettes know in their hearts that Ricky will lose.

Ricky knows it, too.

And the sad part is that Floyd will beat Ricky's ass without even focusing on the fight.

Thank you for being consistent.

[elgaringo]

I dont know. I just cannot wait till the fight! Rickys training like a dog. \he is gonna get inside and make opportunitys count and he does realize the task in hand and will he be up for it? OH YES, he will. Hes a winner he'll give every inch of himself and bare his very soul in pursuit of victory.

Ricky at his very best against Mayweather is Duran to Leanard. I believe this to be so due to the charactors, heart and abilities. A little premature? Yes!

All said, Rick at his peak phissically and rellentles mentalty will give Floyd hell! And I will be routing for my fellow brit all the way. Though I fear it will still wont quite be enough against Floyds skills ( which I admire SOO much) Leanard Is my favorite out of the Fab 4 in the 80s!!!!!

Come on Ricky. You have to want it sooo bad oooo sooo bad. You'll do us proud and be humble till the bitter end. Excited and emotional incresingly, I am about this fight!!!! Just a shame We have to wait till 8.12.07

Thank you for being consistent.

Good pwnage.

Dios: "Floyd's not getting any credit, but Hatton sucks and even his fans know it."

[-EX-]

Of course he won't. Some of the fools on here think he isn't pound for pound #1 as crazy as that sounds. Pacquiao #1 please...
