Mayweather Hatton: Toe to Toe Battle?

[moofo]

C'mon Hatton's chin is not outstanding but it's not Corrales-level either. On a ten-point scale Hatton's maybe a 7-8 in terms of beard, Corrales is what, a 3?

On topic: I believe this. Floyd is nothing if not sensible to marketing. He knows he needs to fight this one in the pocket.

Hatton has been down once to a flash knockdown in his whole career.
I'd say his beard is fine.
Floyd hasn't really been tested on his beard since moving up to 140+147.
Judah glanced hm down I suppose but he hasn't taken a flush shot that I can recall yet.

After watching JT go down in a glorious blaze of fists and fighting like a warrior, the poon-tang Mayweather better step up to the plate and make for a good fight. I myself, promised to never, evvvveerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr buy another Mayweater PPV instead (it's like throwing my money away) so I will catch this one at the bar.

Will Floyd come out more aggressively against Hatton whose coming up from 140? Will he use ALL THAT TALENT in an exciting way and actually entertain with some freaking balls? Or will Floyd do what he's done for the last 2 years and pot-shot and run his way to another boring-ass UD?

But who am I ****ing kidding here? Floyd ain't going to do none of this ****. Floyd says all this ****, but he's gonna go in there and prance his way around the ring like a ballerina and basically dance away with all you fools' money. I'd bet my left testes satchel that he is going to sucker all of you once again. Not even the game's premier brawler in Hatton will entice Floyd to be a man.

Floyd, be like JT....he took his beating like a man and even in defeat, people respect him more than you who has never lost yet. Fight the good fight Floyd, or you will always be remembered as a *****/businessman fighter like Roy Jones.

Didn't Hatton say he will be the bigger man? Does it matter who's coming up when FMJ has been fighting two divisions higher than he should be?

ALSO.... I see the pot-shotting....but where's the "running"?

He had ONE FIGHT against an old man who didn't start his career at light middle and tip tapped a decision.
Unfortunately the old man didn't have a high enough work rate to win.

Thats another thing that is nonsense this 154 champ nonsense.
Get a grip please.

I know that this may be shocking news to Hatton. But fighters DO move up. Yes. I said it. Fighters DO move up in weight.

Oscar had been fighting at 154 and above for six years. The fact that you would dispute that Oscar is a fully-developed 154er is disappointing, but not surprising.




If it is so easy, I would challenge Hatton to go fight ANY decent 154er. Sechew Powell awaits.

Oscar is like a giant to mayweather isn't he?

Mayweather has made it clear. It'll be a toe to toe battle. We know we've heard this before, but (Oscar was the much Bigger fighter and puncher). Understand this my fellow boxing "CRITICS". For the style of fight Hatton brings, mayweather will stay in the pocket and punish him. Hatton fans will be banking on his relentless pressure. One thing for sure Hatton is no De La Hoya (He lacks the offensive tools to keep floyd on the defensive) and they are pretty even, as far as weight (Hatton usually comes in at 147, and Mayweather 148).

WRONG! hatton comes 150++ and Mayweather 147-148.

I'm new to this boxing thing. I heard that they try to evenly match guys on size. What is the "weight classes" thing I keep hearing about?

Hatton has repeatedly said that he comes in at 154 (eleven stone) on fight night.
