Easton, were you the one that said that if you were Hatton, you would retire after this win?
After Floyd wins, I need you to sign on within 12 hours so I can belittle you and gloat prior to your banishment from Heaven.
You can be like Lucifer and go create an alternative where you can rule.Comment

Ali's legacy in pure boxing terms is much less than his legacy in terms of what he has achieved throughout his whole life. Frazier only lost to 2 men. His last fight with Ali could have gone either way, it could easily have been 2-1 to Frazier. Foreman had Fraziers number obviously.
Besides, my point was that walk forward fighters can be very successful. The analogy used in your sig about Ali is truely terrible.Comment

Lol. i never mentioned Hatton retireing. And just so you know Dios, it was lucifer who thought he ruled heaven.
I bet he never saw his banishment comming either. I will not berate you when i win our bet Dios, as nothing i could say would equal everything you have already incriminated yourself with.
You, Isis, Skills, Dweins and a few other are gonne be eating so much crow you wont have time to babbel anymore bull****.

I just hope that this fight lives up to expectations.
Lets be honest here, the sport needs these sort of fights.
As for slagging a fighter or discrediting his ability when we are talking about two multi weight world champions well that just not me.
Most of us on here either take part in this sport, have aspirations of taking part or follow it happily from ringside. Whatever the participation we probably will never be judged along side either of these two boxers so.......
As for the fight, Floyd is a master tactician with amazing skills, hand and foot speed and ring craft. Ricky is an all action brawler with great determination, heart and will power.
Floyds game plan will be to pepper Ricky with quick arm punches make him miss, keep him off balance, cut him up and drive his confidence into the ground to then comfortably win on a late stoppage or decision.
Rick's game plan will be to keep within Floyds range, bully him, work his flanks and draw him into a toe to toe battle or war of attrition.
Various factors will play a huge part - ring size, the referee and Ricky's wafer thin skin.
If the ring is at the limit size wise this fight could become a catch me if you can and will play into Floyds hands, if the referee jumps onto Ricky for his 'style' then this will play into Floyds hands and if Ricky cuts early then he will become anxious and make mistakes. However the opposite can apply, smaller ring, lenient ref and no cuts etc.
I see it going like this:
Floyd will attempt to stop Ricky in his tracks with a series of heavy handed straight punches as Hatton comes in, Hatton will clinch and Floyd will lean on and push off and move out.
Hatton will chase and will lose the first three rounds until Floyd slows down slightly and Hatton's body shots start to land. I see round 4 - 8 being slower and almost even with Floyd winning a couple or three and Ricky winning the same but putting a dent into the usually undentable Mayweather.
Rounds 9 -12 I see being messy but exciting with Ricky wearing down Mayweather with body work, head work and rough housing and Mayweather landing one two's. Ricky will lose a point I feel in these rounds and the fight will go to the cards.
I see Mayweather winning by three (I hope I am wrong) but then there being calls for a rematch.
If I am right hopefully both fighters will receive recognition which I feel they both deserve.
(alternatively this will be a bore fest, although I cannot see it)Comment
