Today I started thinking that Floyd & Roger may switch up and come after Hatton at the jump. Remember that in Floyd's previous 6 fights before Baldy & Oscar he was very offensive and even walked guys down. Hatton is bigger then those 6 guys but he's also smaller then Baldy & Oscar. I honestly dont believe that Floyd fears his size like that of the big WW's. I dont personaly believe nor do I think Floyd believes that a righty can hit him clean anymore. I think thats how much he has mastered his D. Its impossible for a righty to get a very clean shot on him unless he catches Floyd while he's swinging. I also think that Floyd doesnt believe that Hatton can hurt him at all so he will take more risk.
If one thing was clear about the Collazo fight, it was that like most brawlers, they cant fight going backwards. Everytime Collazo got him on his heels and got off 1st he hit Hatton very easily and had him flustered. Everyone believes that Floyd will be running or moving alot but I think that he could come out on the attack and pressuring Hatton. I think that would throw him off alot. As fast as Hatton is, Floyd's speed is still far superior and if he comes out to the center of the ring on the attack then I think he could land a bunch of blistering shots early that would hurt Hatton's confidence. I could see him coming out like he did against Chop Chop with his hands up high and in front of him in a very aggressive manner and looking to score early. Either way I think Floyd will go toe to toe with him alot. I think his height & arm length will offset Hatton's weight & strength. The uppercuts will work like in the Chaves fight. The best part of this fight will still be when Floyd goes in the pocket and there right in the trenches with eachother. Hatton throwing blistering combos & body shots while Floyd blocking & countering
