The statement you made DOES NOT break down into those two questions. Answering them achieves nothing except massaging your ego into thinking you are right when you couldnt be more wrong if you tried.
And so I'm not accused of dodging the question, its Floyd, both times.Comment

The statement is half true.
Floyd is very hard to hit because he is always backpedaling and running away, his philly shell defense is impressive.
Hatton wasn't blessed with the greatest defense, but I think it is somewhat underrated, Hatton has great agility and underrated footwork that can make opponents miss, he attacks from different angles, smothers his opponents and throws vicious combinations to the head and body. Hatton has much better defense than Baldomir or Gatti.Comment

Now is there really a diffrence in landing on Baldmir-Gatti and Hatton???The statement you made DOES NOT break down into those two questions. Answering them achieves nothing except massaging your ego into thinking you are right when you couldnt be more wrong if you tried.

Yes, there is.
Baldomir and Gatti were old versions of slow fighters. Hatton is an "in his prime" fighter who is faster than both of those could even dream of being.
Add to that the fact that Hattons boxing ability outshines the pair of them and the difference becomes clear for all to see.Comment

Floyd is one of the hardest fighters to his of this generation.
Hatton is NOT one of the easiest fighters to hit.
If hatton takes into the ring what he used in training camp and can successfully use it i think floyd would have problems getting a chance to take any shots.
We seen with Mayweather/De la hoya that oscar was winning the fight using punch after punch (even if they werent all landing) the crowd's cheer and de la hoya's pressure that made the fight swayed the judges to score in this favor.
Im quite sure hatton and company are aware of this and plan to use a similar tactic with mayweather.
if hatton is coming forward and using punches in bunches over and over and over it will keep mayweather on his heels and you cant fight going backwards.
hatton's persistance in the fight will dictate whether or not he will be an easy target...its hard to hit someone who is using 4-5 punch combo's at a fast speed continiously.
you have to defend yourself and dont have much opportunity to go onto the attack.
if hatton does what he did in training camp floyd will have his hands full for 12 rounds i promise that...especially if he incorporates body punch after body punch.
if that happens this is not an easy payday for mr. mayweather.Comment

I'll agree Hatton is more active and energetic than the two....but I think Floyd will hit him just as easy as Urango did..Collao did...I can go on.Yes, there is.

Floyd said it best..."You cant miss Haton"....Comment
