Prior to the Baldomir bout, Floyd said that Baldo had two ways to go out. On his ass, or on his face, and what does Floyd do? pity pat and potshot his way to a safe points victory. And please dont start with the "well Baldo outweighed Floyd by such and such pounds". Floyd new that was gonna happen come fight night.
Floyd claims that he will go toe-toe with Hatton.

If you say that the punches were pitty-pat, I question whether you actually saw the fight. Here... you can watch some of it for the first time:

Did anybody quite know about Baldomir's chin? That guy has a titanium dome. So Floyd took his shutout and kept it moving. Just like Forrest did. Zab and Gatti would have been smart to fight that same way.

Mayweather WILL NEVER GO TOE-TO-TOE if he feels threatened.
If he feels he is in full control of the fight and can slip and duck those punches thrown at him.. yes, he will stand there and fight...
But as long as he is challenged.. off he goes running again.
Mayweather is just not a fighter to take risks, period. Can you blame him?? That's a matter of personal preference. Some fighters go out there to entertain (ala Gatti) others make sure they secure that "W"Comment

there are times when he did go toe to toe with oscar...but floyd is a fighter that picks his shots..so yea, he will go toe to toe vs. Hatton. The question is when during the fight will he choose to...
*edit
plus u have to look at the fact that Hatton is the smaller man, we seen what Floyd does with fighters smaller than him right?Last edited by RisAri0; 09-18-2007, 11:08 AM.Comment
