    From the opinion of a floyd mayweather fan not some punk like DIOS DOMINICANO, i feel that floyd will relax the first couple of rounds and get warmed up. He has really good defense and will use his jab a lot, no way will he put pressure on hatton give me a ****ing break as if that will ever happen, hatton will be bringing the pressure 200mph each round it could be dangerous for floyd but i think he will still pull through.

      Hatton starts fast and Floyd doesn't. I anticipate a decision for Hatton as Hatton sweeps the first four, Floyd takes the next four and then hatton takes it down the stretch as Floyd begins to realise that Ricky isn't slowing down.

          That would be believeable if i had ever seen floyd have a look of discouragement or frustration on his face, or if floyd was the type to gas out in the later rounds, but to say that floyd would be amazed that ricky isnt tired etc is kind of a stretch especially since in both the collazo and urango fight, ricky definately slowed down toward the end, maybe if we were talking about judah i could see that happening, but the idea of floyd being befuddled in that manner is a stretch.

          One thing i can say is that if mayweather feels he is down like in the judah and in the castillo fight, he does rise to the occasion, some people felt he lost against castillo but the 11th round in that fight showed me that when he feels he is down he doesnt just stand there and hope for the best.

          Another thing is that there is no garuntee by the later rounds that Hattons easily swollen face will be in any condition to continue taking punishment, he had better hope that a good body assault will tire floyd.

            I think we're going to see a very good and very close fight. But that's how I see it going down. If Hatton wins and the rematch takes place it would go down differently, as Floyd is way more cautious throughout the fight.

              Hatton fading in the Urango and Collazo fights is precisely why I think Mayweather will be surprised. Mayweather has fought this sort of fight before against Chavez and he got stronger as the fight wore on. Hatton is stronger and will start to increase the pace as the fight moves on, and that's why I think Floyd's superior skill and speed bosses the middle rounds but Hatton's body attack starts to tell by the end of the eighth.

                This is very true, floyd is a bit a slow starter of late but ive always said if hatton doesnt do anything big in the 1st 2/3 rounds, i dont like his chances.

                  I just have to comment after reading 4 pages of boxer bashing

                  Too funny!

                  First of all I honestly was never a Mayweather fan BUT I respected the mans talent to the fullest. Over the past year I have watched his entire career and come to realize I am a BIG fan now. Best lb 4 lb on the planet!

                  I look at it like this..

                  Everyone thought Baldomir was going to level Mayweather and look what happened. The guy hit Maywether a handful of times in 12 rounds! He looked like a complete fool! I dont bet but i would bet on Baldomir over Hatton.

                  Yes Hatton has heart and he is a slugger but Mayweather is a boxer

                  Either way i am pumped for HBO 24/7 and I wish tomorrow was December 5th.

                  Everyone enjoy the fight!

                    I wonder what kind of entrance/trunks mayweather will come in to disrespect his opponent this time.
