    Let's talk tactics..

    It's pretty easy to figure out what Hatton's plan to do. Pressure, pressure, pressure.

    Even with the mini clips we have seen we can tell what Ricky is planning on doing. The clips all show Billy Graham with the mitts, backpedalling and Ricky going full steam ahead.

    Now, judging from Hatton's fight with Tszyu, which is the tactic I think he will most likely employ the guy is there to be hit. He took some clean shots from Tszyu and pretty much shrugged them off.

    I'm not sure about Mayweather's pop at 147, really. I know it is not that great but does he have the sting to keep Hatton off him.

    I know it is just a rumour that his hands are injured...but if they are he is in some serious trouble.

    If he thinks he can keep a bull of a fighter off him with a broken hand, he is clueless.

    a fight of this magnitude...neither Ricky/Floyd would EVER call it off. These rumours are dissapointing, but if true, I feel sorry for both combatants. I seriously hope for the sport that both fighters are at 100%

    Too much money on the line...that's the bottome line.

    I think you will be surprised how much power Floyd has at 147... meaning that I think he will be able to keep Ricky off without having to 100% commit to his punches.

    I'm definately not saying that Floyd could win as a ****er at 147 with his power, but the fact that he fought Baldomir and a huge De La Hoya in his last two fights have definately hurt the image of how much power Floyd has.

    He hurt Judah a few times, and had him ****** up at the end of the fight, and he destroyed Mitchell (but who at 147 hasn't?)

    I guess we'll see come Saturday.
