Floyd didn't back up De La Hoya, not once.

He definitely didn't back up Oscar, but floyd definitely landed bombs that kept Oscar off of floyd.

That's not true. Oscar backed off after some rights hands several times. Including the one that buckled him at 1:20 of the 5th, and several other times in the middle rounds.

Yeah, and in spite of Oscar being completely gassed the last few rounds of the fight, Floyd elected to play it safe, much to the chagrin of the crowd who booed their asses off.

One thing is for sure, Floyd will train hard, he is a very dedicated fighter, and He will win a one-sided decision or late TKO. I really Like Hatton but he will not beat Floyd, The only guy that can beat floyd is someone Tall with a good jab, Hatton has'nt got that....

If Floyd potshots and lands some of those right hands on Ricky then he did on Oscar it could be over quick.
Landed 3-4 bombs on Oscar than I dont think Hatton would be able to take.

The crowd booed only in the first round when Floyd went on his toes and started dancing. Once he heard the booing he stopped and the crowd hasn't booed since.

In fact they cheered in the 12th round and Floyd actually tried to trade punches with oscar the last few seconds. ****** thing to do but it was the end of the fight.

The only thing afterwards that they booed was the decision. They heard "And the neeeeeeeew!!!" and they thought Oscar won something when in fact Floyd won the WBC 154lb title. Alot of casual boxing fans were in the building that night.

he may very well lose a one sided decision but he wont take a bad beating. mayweather isnt a puncher and hatton is no gatti. floyd will probably slap him around though and win a comfy ud

Ricky Hatton is a great guy
