What kind of reply is that ?
" PBF being on the attack can really be counted on by Hatton at all."
And what the fcuk is ^ that meant to mean ?Comment

What I meant to say was: PBF being on the attack CAN'T really be counted on by Hatton at all so what is Hatton going to do when PBF isn't attacking?Comment

With all that said how do yall expect Hatton to get inside on PBF? Hatton is going to take so much punishment to get inside. If Hatton can't jab his way in then how does he do it. Because his feet are not faster than PBF's nor are his hands. This why I don't see how PBF can't win this by KO or TKO. A UD is basically a given if it goes the distance. That leaping in **** he does is not going to work.
Everybody has talked about Hatton's body attack but nobody has stated how he is going to get inside. Its one thing to say Hatton has quick feet to close the distance but what punch is he going to throw to move those quick feet to get inside.
Hatton fans please explain?Comment

Neither of those sound like good options but I at least feel like he should try and use his jab. Trying to walk through PBF's punches this fight gets ended very early to due to swelling and cuts.Comment

I think Hatton could surprise a few people with his boxing skills if he tried to use the jab but ultimately I think it would be doomed to failure and given how he walked through Tszyu's punches I believe that is what he will try to do again.Comment

Even if the jab isn't effective its better than just walking in. PBF is not Tszyu in any way shape or form. PBF will hit Hatton and step to the side as to where Tszyu was basically stationary which is why it worked so well against Tszyu. I don't think that will work very well at all against PBF. Also PBF is way more accurate with punch placement than Tszyu and he also doesn't need as much space to get his punches off either.Comment

I agree. For someone whose game plan was to fight on the outside, Tszyu's lack of movement was amateurish at times. However, Tszyu's counter punching was top class at times throughout his fight with Hatton and there is an argument which says Tszyu is a stronger puncher than Floyd. Many people expected Hatton to use the jab in that fight but for some reason he didn't.Comment

Now at a lower weight, Floyd has more pop and that could hurt Hatton if he tries to walk through his right crosses and uppercuts.Comment
