    You have Arguello being several levels above Hatton?

    You have Arguello as a B and Hatton as a C? Because I KNOW you are not saying that Arguello is on the level of a SRL, FMJ, TH, Duran, etc.

      I think Mayweather will win by decision. But it wont be a clinic. I would count on Mayweather eating quite a few right-handers from the great Arguello.

        Different tactics tho if it was a 15 round fight. You don't hear me saying ricky hatton was tought as nails but it took mayweather 10 rounds to knock him out.

          If Hatton didn't hold as much it would have been sooner. If the fight was at 140 it would have been much sooner.

            The only guys who would/could/might beat FMJ are the upper-echelon fighters: SRL, Pernell, etc. That is the only level fighter we should discuss beating Floyd.

            Arguello is more of that B+ guy....like a Hatton.
            man some people cant even get PBF **** out of their mouth even after his ***** way out to retirement.

            Arguello was a legend and would destroy gayweather - besides hes ****in done and will never be remembered as a great in a year or two.

            Arguello B+ haha Hatton couldnt hold Alexis's jock strap some of you guys make me laugh

                  Arguello is a top 30-40 ALL TIME guy. Hatton might not even be a hall of famer. Hell Hatton is not even "great". He's just good. Arguello was a legend. Even at 140 where he was shop worn and old, he would handle Hatton.

                  Not to say Floyd doesnt handle him. I think he does. Just saying, Arguello is not Ricky Hatton.

                    Ricky Hatton is naturally bigger than rguello bigger than FMJ?

                      Why do you think floyd will know hatton out sonner at 140? Hatton is the best 140 fighter in the world. Floyd has a massive weight advatage at 147.
