The fight will be stopped prematurely

[SpeedKillz]

I won't be using any excuses as long as the fight is allowed to progress until its natural end without any bull**** point deductions or bad refereeing or bad judging.
And I mean that either way.
I would hate to see Hatton win by a bad decision or a premature stoppage.
Hopefully the fight will leave NO QUESTION MARKS either way.
So no there will be no excuses as long as the fight is allowed to play out.
May the best man win on the night.
Until Dec 8th NOBODY knows what will happen.
No matter how much you think about it.
The 2 men in the ring will decide.
NOT THE FANS.

co-sign! good post moofo...

From the comment mayweather made I believe he will focus on opening him up with sharp accurate punches. We all know how accurate his punches can be. And anyone who bets ALL of his points on Hatton is NUTZ.

Actually anyone who bets all their points on Hatton has balls and is a true fan.

It's the only way Hatton can lose without going 12 rounds. It's definitely the main factor in why I'm picking Mayweather to beat him aside from overall better skills. I see Hatton giving the bravest performance of his life in this fight, walking into the windmill of Mayweather counters in an attempt to break Mayweather's body.

The question is can Hatton break Mayweather's body down before Mayweather breaks Hatton's face open? The answer to that question for me is a resounding "no". But Hatton has proven me wrong before.

I've thought about this as well. This is the only reason I live the door open for a Mayweather TKO. Somewhere in the Championship rounds. This is going to be the most Hatton has ever been hit flush. It could pose a problem.

The ****ed up part is that Hatton has some decent head movement. If you watch the first 6 rounds of the Urango fight (before he was hurt by the body shots) you can see Hatton boxing and moving his head in a way I never thought he was capable of before. He needs to have that kind of movement against Mayweather to avoid taking so many flush shots, but even still with that scar tissue, I say his head movement can only prolong it for so long.

How good of a body puncher is Urango? If he is average or so... that is going to be trouble for Hatton, because Floyd goes to the body himself occasionally.

I don't think Hatton has enough to bother Floyd. Castillo had success going to the body but Floyd was injured. Hatton has to disrupt the usual pace of a Floyd fight. He has to throw many punches and they have to be landing and effective. De La Hoya threw a lot, but he got tired. Floyd makes everyone fight his pace and stays in his comfort zone. His opponents say they're gonna do this and that but Floyd does what he wants to do fight night and wins.

Urango was a big boy for 140.
I'm sure his hooks to the body have decent power.

That's what I figured... I heard he isn't that quick, nor is he super skillful, so I figured that it was probably his body punching that kept his record without a loss up to that point.

Hatton better not try and box with Floyd. He'll be in trouble. He needs to try and cut off the ring and swarm him from round until the end. If Hatton is losing the early rounds I think he'll be finished.

Floyd is probably gonna have to throw more punches than he did with Baldomir or Oscar. He's fighting a young hungry opponent, he's gonna have to break a sweat.
