Berto: "Hatton Will Beat Mayweather"

[MindBat]

Mr. Berto doesn't sound too cinvinced, himself.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

I think Berto sucks, so I don't give a **** about his opinion. Now, everyone is favoring the underdog hatton. This is bull****, floyd boxes while hattons first instinct is to try and ko his opponent.

Of the 20 experts to make selections, only 4 of 20 picked Hatton. The other 3 experts besides Andre Berto to pick Ricky Hatton were all journalists. Each work for British Boxing News, Manchester Evening news, and a freelance British boxing writer, respectively


Elite,

It was Berto and three British journalists out of 20 people. Please put that into perspective.

I like Hatton by KO.
But I have a feeling Floyd wins with his
usual defensive game, ala Mayweather-dela Hoya

Manila,

Hatton did not KO Urango, Collazo, Eamonn Magee, Oliveira, Vilches, etc. Is it reasonable to predict that he is going to KO Floyd Mayweather at 147? A Floyd who hasn't been badly hurt his whole career?

I dunno about that. Hatton can win this fight. But he needs to do it in a systematic, wear-down-Floyd kinda way. And try to sweep the late rounds.

Hatton is not a killer. Especially not at 147.

I disagree with Berto but I do respect his opinion. We will see come the 8th.

Floyd is just gonna pick-pocket punches all night long againt him. That fat ass has no chance against Mayweather.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Hatton is to small and has the wrong style to beat the elite welterweights. When he fought Collazo he won the decision but took a beating. Collazo is no Mayweather. Hatton's claim to fame was beating an old Kosta Tzyzu who was washed up before that fight and wasn't a welterweight anyway. I like Hatton and am glad he's getting a good payday but while you can never say a fighter has no chance I would say that this would be a big upset if Hatton wins. Matador against the bull and in this case the matador is bigger and faster than the bull. Mayweather by lopsided decision

I have seen that analogy used a few times and while I think it is a good one, the comparison I prefer is dog vs cat.

This is a dog vs cat fight. Ricky is a tough dog, and Floyd is a wildcat.

Have you ever seen a fight between a dog and a cat of roughly same size?

I've seen that fight Dios. Chuck Norris always wins.
