      just because floyd boxes doesnt mean its running, he's going to be careful for this fight.

        I must ask this question. What is ya'll definition of running? because if you think Floyd does then you're wrong. Floyd sticks and moves. Now Andre Dirrel is different. That dude runs. Go back and watch his fight Stevens. Now when has Mayweather ever ran like that. Some of you guys say the dumbest **** ever about Floyd. Its cool to dislike him but be real and give him credit when it is due instead of hating all the time.

          Floyd has never "run", and he has definately never run from any 140 lber. He boxed very cautiously against Baldomir and De La Hoya, two men who had at least 20-30lbs on him on the night of their fights. Hatton will be no bigger than PBF, but he will be shorter with a shorter reach, you do the math.

            That the point I was trying to make.

              floyd does what gives him longevity. Its not pretty to watch but at the same time im waiting for him to get caught.

              Hatton leads with his face too much for my liking. I can`t see him winning on points. It will be a KO body punch for Hatton or a TKO cuts win for mayweather.

                Incorrect.

                Down against Carlos Hernandez when he hurt his hand, no punch was thrown to knock him down though.

                Judah knocked him down, but it was ruled no knockdown by Richard Steele. His glove clearly touched though. He was just off balance when he was coming in, he wasn't hurt at all.

                Even so, he has never been hurt by a punch that knocked him down.

                  Floyd stick 30 punches per round. Hugs about the same number.

                  AND THE REST IS RUNNING.

                  Sorry but get a dictionary.

                  That's called running.

                  Like a chicken.

                    No, Forrest at the end of round 8 against Baldomir is running. What Floyd does is box and move. Hit and get out of there before you can be hit. It's the best possible strategy for maximizing your offense to punishment taken ratio. It's called being smart in the ring.

                    You haters seriously would outlaw strategy if you had the choice I think.

                      Hatton will weigh more that Floyd come the bell, Hatton is by far superior to Mitchell or gatti
