    Hatton is the first opponent that isn`t handpicked since Castillo

    Floyd finally made an error of judgement in his cherry picking of opponents.

    He let Hattons comments about his 'boring' career get to him. As a result he is fighting someone who isn't handpicked to make him look good and add an alphabet title to the list...big mistake Floyd

    Floyd is fighting someone who can beat him.

    Floyd loses this by TKO or UD.

    Who agrees?

    Hatton IS hand picked. Floyd heard Hatton talking **** on HBO so Floyd chose him to be his next opponent.

      mayweather would not dare fight hatton at 140 so i think hatton is handpicked. everyone knows hatton is a beast at 140. he has a chance at 147 but at 140 mayweather would have no chance against hatton.

        handpicked for the wrong reasons. Usually its because they are bums. He let Hattons comments get to him

            good point, but i get the feeling that Floyd lets alot of that slide because people like Mosley's comments don`t get to him.

            I think the comment made after the Castillo fight got to him more than anything else

              i think its an accumulation of everything. the comment, the big name, and the most money out there now.

                You really do think like a Mexican.

                At 140, Ricky is the bigger man. At 147, Ricky is the bigger man.

                Stop making excuses. When they offered Ricky the fight at 140, they said they were not ready.

                  Floyd saw those 10K Brits. Cha-Ching.

                  Margarito or Cintron could have called Floyd's mother a w*hore and they wouldn't have gotten a fight.

                  PBF had offered hatton multiple fights already. This just happens to be the one Team Hatton took. They saw both Oscar and Floyd going away.

                    floyd always fights dudes that dont have much speed. i think judah being the only one that could match him, but even then he chose that fight when zab was coming off a lose.
