The feeling down in england is that hatton will win, thats from what i have read/seen, mind you some of these people dont really know how to judge a fight. I still think hatton fans base their picks on feeling rather than actual tangibles of the fight.
But mayweather will have to win clearly, if its close, hatton will get the nod in my eyes, with either rematch or a de la hoya fight next up,
The judging in the de la hoya fight was shocking especially that guy that had it 115-113 de la hoya, if mayweather goes 12 rounds, he better win clear, or else....Comment

Heart vs Head....I respect that.
I had created a Heart vs Head thread, but it fizzled after 200-ish posts. I wish more people would separate their left brain from their right brain.
Like last night: my heart wanted Tarver to get Ko'd brutally...but I knew he would win.Comment

And I think that FMJ knows this, which is why i really believe that he will put his foot on the gas to stop Hatton.
Floyd and Roger are still mentioning the judging in that fight. Plus, PBF wants another Corrales-esque/Gatti-esque signature performance. A "did you see that" kinda bout.
Both fighters seem very motivated.Comment

I was just reading ESB, and one of the guys kinda summed up what i think.And I think that FMJ knows this, which is why i really believe that he will put his foot on the gas to stop Hatton.

Is mayweather the one who is being underestimated?
All this talk of him taking hatton lightly (when they havent even seen mayweather train)
Talk of Leonard vs duran 1
And Hatton has been convincing people who have been watching 24/7 that he cant lose.
Quite a few people are now picking hatton, which is interesting,
I think he has a chance, but every boxer has a chance in any fight.Comment

I don't know what the hype is about Floyd at 147. He was a great fighter at Light weight and Featherweight but I haven`t been impressed with him since his second fight with Castillo.
This fight will prove whether Floyd has untapped resources that he can draw on, or whether fighting an undefeated genuine LWW champion in his prime is a bridge too far.
This is the first fight where Floyd has been goaded into fighting someone and not hand picking them because he thinks he can exploit them, like Baldomir, Gatti or DLH who's record for his past 5 fights wasn't great.
I'm picking Hatton to hand Floyd his first loss.Comment
