    Floyd has fought by far the biggest portion of his career at Super Featherweight, 130 lbs. How can people be this misinformed or delusional?

        at 140 in 2005, floyd would have killed hatton, period. no comments needed after this. hatton would have been mangled in 2005. he was at the gatti fight, he saw floyd destroy gatti, and he said he wasn't ready for him yet. he waited to floyd slowed down some at 147 to finally call him out. he had his chance at 140 after he beat kosta and before he beat kosta, he didn't want floyd at that weight where floyd was dominating people to the core. hatton was in over his head fighting floyd at 140 which is why he didn't take the fight.

          You are right C-Drone, I was wrong.

          The breakdown:

          Floyd
          130 - 14
          135 - 16
          140 - 3
          147 - 4
          154 - 1

          That only comes out to 38 so I missed a fight in there, but you were right that I was wrong. The biggest portion of his career did not come at super feather, it came at lightweight. Of course this is still five pounds below Hatton. In fact, Mayweather has fought 75 percent of his career below Hatton in weight and this point is still as about as good reasoning as you'd expect from a Down's syndrome kid, but whatever helps you sleep at night right?

              Are you dumb.......at 147 he would be too heavy..not that he could actually weigh that in the ring..

              2 poor performances at 147 show Hatton is not able to move up ..and loses alot compared to being at 140..

              Floyd looked bigger than Hatton and carries the weight better..He's a bigger guy.fact.

              You recon Hatton could fight at 154..No way..
              Also..hasn't fought below 140 for years....

                Well, I guess you're wrong. But I meant the other people. Who would try to make, slight excuses for Hatton. I didn't mean you, lol. I just meant.. they'd make excuses because it sucks being wrong. I can understand that. Either way though, NATURALLY Mayweather has just gotten used to 147 more, he's still the naturally lighter fighter.

                    Cotto is a junior welterweight too. He doesnt have anything to do with Floyd.

                      You dont have a point. Where did Hatton fight most of his career?(hint 140) Where did Floyd fight most of his career? (hint 130 and 135) So you're grasping at straws talking about Hatton was not at his natural weight. If thats the case Floyd didnt fight at his natural weight.

                      Stop making excuses.
