Mayweather Hatton: Toe to Toe Battle?

[sonofisis]

Well he stood toe to toe with Gatti and no one thought that would happen!!! I think this will be a repeat of that fight!!! Floyd will win!!!

Hatton isn't as durable as Gatti either so if Floyd does the same thing, it is definitely curtains..

Comparing Gatti to Hatton...Is plain ******ed...
You talk as they are similar fighters...they are quite clearly very different in style and ability..

Gatti was a walking punch bag...

The bold is true but so is Hatton the difference being that Hatton is better than Gatti but the point is both take a lot of punishment to dish out they're own.

Gatti changed up his fighting style and actually tried to box with Floyd. Bad move on Gatti's part. Hatton knows he cant outbox Floyd, so he's gonna go in there, and do what has been working for him. Pressure, relentlesness, rough house tactics, etc. Not to mention, Floyd fought an extremely shop-worn Gatti. Hatton is a hungry young fighter who is in his prime, and conditioned to go 12rnds with Floyd. This definitely will be interesting to watch.

It should be interesting to watch but you never know. I personally see a one sided fight in favor of PBF. You can say all fighters are conditioned to go 12 rounds but once they start getting hit combined with moving about the ring more than they have ever had to conditioning that was thought to be great all of a sudden isn't as good as they thought it was. I say this because PBF has been rough housed and pressured in fights before and still won. Hatton has never been hit probably as much as he is going to be hit in this fight. I feel accumulation of consistent solid punches over the course of a fight takes more out of a fighter than the occasional hard punch every now and then.

Only 2 out of 10 Hatton followers are willing to make that bet.

Cool then we have a bet. Lets both it in our sigs. I will have the 10k in points by the time the fight comes around. Glad I finally found a Hatton fan will to make a bet on their fighter.

I see Hatton's chances growing day by day in this fight. It seems to me and alot of other people, that Floyd isnt taking this fight THAT serious. Floyd is currently high off of his success against Oscar, and all that money is getting to his head. I dont care what anybody says. There is absolutely now way that you can properly train, for maybe the biggest fight of your life, while competing in a major televised dancing competion at the same time. Impossible! I dont care how much of a gym rat Floyd is, because at the end of the day, he's only human. The human body and mind can only take so much. His focus should be 100% on Hatton right now, because right now, Hatton eats, sleeps, and breaths Floyd. Anyone who says that Dancing With The Stars wont be a distraction, is clearly delusional!

What alot of you don't understand is that even if PBF made it to the finals of Dancing with the Stars he would still have a little under a month to train. The reality of it is longer training camps are to get rust off, timing down and to get into shape (losing weight). PBF stays in great shape so he doesn't have ring rust or have to worry about getting his timing down by sparring a bunch of rounds. Really all PBF has to do work on his game plan for the Hatton fight.
