    If Hatton changed his style

    what do you think would have happened if hatton had changed his fighting style, stepped back, tried to box, make Floyd chase him, similar to the way Barrera did to out smart scumbag Hamed.
    Could he have done it, could Floyd change his style and chase someone down.

      Wouldn't have worked. Mayweather was most effective when they were at a distance.

        This is floyd were talking about, hatton changes his style then he would have no chance in hell of beating mayweather. Hatton fought the perfect fight, he just got caught.

                No. PBF is too smart. He would have adapted to his style just like with any other boxer he faced.

                  Wow. Don't act like that punch came out of no where.

                  Floyd nearly knocked him down with it earlier in the fight, and landed it multiple times throughout the duration. Hatton charges in wide open, right in to Floyd's punch.

                  Hatton claimed he wasn't 1-dimensional, but he didn't do much to dispel that. I was expecting a lot more out of him, based on what he said.

                    I'm just trying to offer something else for poor Ricky, they could fight evry week and the result would be the same I guess.
