Floyd promises the fans a toe-toe battle!

[PeROxiDE]

So Mayweather decides to go toe toe with a smaller fighter instead of running, I'm not impressed. If he went toe to toe with the other top welterweights then I would be.

In words of Ricky himself:

"Floyd doesn't want to stand toe to toe with me because he knows he'll get eaten"

Couldnt have put it better myself.

Ricky Hatton doesn't want to box Floyd because he knows he'll get his ass crushed that way. Instead he wants PBF to come on into this territory where skill is obsolete and power is everything. If floyd does this, he's an idiot.

This is a battle of styles. To see who's style is better, more refined. What kind of style is better and so on.


$500 on floyd.

that's all the money in my bank right now... i'm a very poor college student.. and if he looses i'll be a very sad college student haha.

this is gonna be a chance for hatton to do another gatti
pot shot with prices boomin counters and avoid the slower "harder" shots
i sure hope he takes advantage of the situation and does so
he doesnt need to box and run from hatton
hes taken on better
he can easily do what he did to gatti with ricky
he may have to take a lil more since hatton is younger and more resiliant
but i can see floyd taken it by landin more
it may be to his advantage to stay close and roll rickys shots
while comin back with 3 or 4 of his own

"On the pads in training last week, Mayweather asked his uncle and trainer Roger Mayweather to slow down his punches and make them wider and more ponderous in order to imitate Hatton's style."

Ricky is in dreamland.

Collazo stood toe-to-toe. Eaten?

Urango stood toe-to-toe. Eaten?

Is 'ponderous' in 'ol Rog's vocabulary?

Roger: That motha****a throws that ol' ponderous bull****.

He has gone toe to toe with several fighters. Its not his fault that he can ****en beat his opponent on sheer skill nothing else. If i was floyd i would duck and counter duck and counter cirlcle and counter faint and counter and at the same time be laughing at hatton just to show how much better he is at this sport. He dont need to go toe to toe thats for people that cant out skill their opponent. the only chance they have is to rush and throw whatever.

That's not my point, what I'm saying is that he can go toe to toe with Ricky Hatton since he's the "smaller fighter", but he can't go toe to toe with any of the top welters, or at least put up a fight. I mean I understand he's a small welterweight, but he could at least throw more punches in his recent bouts against Baldomir and Delhoya.

why does mayweather lie to the boxing fans. the only time he even went toe to toe was on dancing with the stars.
