What if hatton lands a hard bodyshot on Floyd?

[Moon]

you guys say its impossible for hatton to win but what happens if hatton lands a bodyshot like he did against castillo?

This is a desparate thread.

Sure it might happen. Hatton has a puncher's chance, just like every other puncher.

Regarding a good, clean, levered body shot. It ain't gonna happen. And, every time he goes looking for Floyd's body, he's very likely gonna get tagged cleanly. Ricky won't be so wiloling to keep his hands swinging low and wide, when he's got Floyd's hands ripping flesh off his bony face, really.

I like Ricky's work ethic, but not much else. He's facing a guy who's fast in bunches and has proven lately not to have the light hands that people talk about. Think about that for sec. A guy with decent power landing in combos on Hatton, from every angle, for twelve rounds.

I reckon Hatton meets a decent combo for every hug he gives PBF, then gets frustrated and starts throwing intentional low shots to gain any possible edge, but only finds that inspires PBF to really open up on him and that'll be the end of the show. Book it.

its not IF its when hatton lands, and floyd will do wat he always does, move on and win hopefully

[SkillspayBills]

Floyd will feel it, IF that is going to happen is the real question.

from what ive seen, Floyd can weather body punches fairly well. he gets caught sometimes, but never really seems to even care too much.

Im sure if Hatton digs shots to the body it will take its toll on Floyd in the fight and wear him down. so maybe thats your answer.

Well, Floyd isn't exactly a shot-to-a-zillion-pieces fighter like Castillo.

So I imagine that Floyd would have the same reaction as Collazo and Urango had when ricky landed those body shots.

Agreed. Please keep in mind that Castillo's money punch was the left hook to the body, which he landed numerous times on Floyd in their first fight. Not much effect.

However, if the perfect body shot gets through, it could be ballgame for anyone.

He couldnt land it on 99% of his opponets so far and Floyd is the hardest fighter in the game to land clean on ,,, what happens if Floyd lands flush all night with the same right hands that wobbled ODH ,,,, what happens to that Castillo punch if Floyd not being stuck in mud like an old Castillo just turns enough to take 60% of the power off it like he does with everything else thats caught him ,,,, the latest threads on the board are getting a bit much with all the what ifs !

If Hatton had landed that shot on Collazo ot Urango they would both have crumbled as well.

I don't see Hatton landing that type of shot against Mayweather, but you never know in Boxing. However, Mayweather is an exceptional defensive fighter, therefore, shots like the one Hatton landed on Castillo won't be easy to find against Mayweather. I give Hatton immense credit for taking the fight with Mayweather, but it was a logical step. Many on this site claimed that Hatton was ducking Mayweather, but i never thought that was the case. However, Hatton realises that Mayweather will most definitely be the biggest test he will have in his career, and although i think Hatton can win the fight, in the back of my mind i can see Mayweather making him look bad, and picking his shots... I hope not.
