Floyd's opposition

[Parody]

Baldy and Gatti were punchbags, Corley was a journeyman, Sharmba years past his best, Zab and Oscar (despite being years past their best) clearly leading after six rounds

Don't get me wrong, Floyd takes Ricky with a bodyshot (trust me), but it's interesting

Are you kidding? Hatton will Knockout Mayweather in the first second of the first round with a bodyshot.

Mayweather is far out of his prime.


(Notice the sarcasm used, copying JUY's predictions on Lacy KO'ing Calzaghe and Kessler destroying Calzaghe.)

Floyd is 39-0 with victories over

Hernandez -top 130lb at only 17-0 in his first year as a pro.

Corrales - undefeated and rated #5 p4p

Castillo 2x - Top guy at 135 at that time

This is a welterweight fight against a junior-welterweight

[TyrantT316]

Leonard - Hearns x2, Duran x2, Hagler, Benitez and most in a short period of time too.

as big a fan of Mayweather as I am, Mayweather would have to complete, Hatton and Cotto to add onto Castillo, Corrales, Hernandez, and DLH.

Castillo, Corrales and Hernandez was a great first part of his career. Now he has the opportunity to finish it with a stretch of DLH, Hatton and Cotto. Castillo and Hernandez could possibly make the HOF one day. Heck it wouldn't surprise me for Corrales to make the HOF one day. DLH will definitely make the HOF. Hatton and Cotto would/could be wins vs two young threats in their primes for linear championships who both have the tools to be future HOFers. So they would help seal a legacy for Floyd.

Because of Cotto's popularity and how well he has done, Floyd would get a lot more props to beat the undefeated Puerto Rican in a big MSG or Las Vegas battle for the Welterweight Championship. Meaning assuming he beats Hatton, Cotto would do more money wise and career wise than a Margarito or Williams.

This is a welterweight fight against a junior-welterweight

and Hagler fought closely with a lightweight Duran...Hagler lost to a welterweight and retired Leonard

Hearns knocked out a lightweight Duran

Hagler knocked out a weltweight Hearns


my point being that modern boxing isn't the birth of great fighters fighting smaller guys...this has been going on for years

plus Floyd was a former super featherweight and even 140/147 has been pushing it for him...some of you talk as if Floyd is a natural Middleweight fighting a lightweight...Hatton walks around at 180, is young and physically very strong...part of his trouble with Collazo was Collazo's style and skill...not just size

at least Hopkins beat his weltweights who moved up...one of them being in his prime...fans would have blasted Hopkins had he avoided Trinidad who at the time looked destructive at welterweight, jr middleweight AND middleweight...

Floyd has a longer reach and a couple of inches...however he is no natural cruiserweight or anything...

Hatton only walks round so heavy because he abuses himself by eating **** food and drinking Guinness which is loaded with calories.
If he ate properly he would never be so heavy.
He is actually obese when he abuses himself that way.

Trinidad was NOT in his prime and definitely NOT at his most effective weight when he fought Hopkins.

Yeah, you can tell by looking at his face when he's out of fight shape. I mean he didn't get the nickname "Fatton" out of nowhere.

[Slotff]

If floyd lost to castillo the first time then why did he decimate him in the enxt fight.

He didn't decimate him, he controlled the pace of the fight and won 7 rounds. no more no less.

[RHETOЯIC]

If Hatton had fought 43 Mayweathers, he'd be 0-43.
Do you agree?

[Orange Sneakers]

If Hatton had fought 43 Mayweathers, he'd be 0-43.
Do you agree?

No I don't.

One of the best one liners in 24/7 history.
