    Is not only his jab, is that everybody can land a lefthook on hatton, he always rushes with no defense, and when he throws body shots he always leave himself open to get hit, and Mayweather is a great counterpuncher. I think if he uses a jab he will probably improves his chances. But he already is acustom to fight like that. And is hard for a fighter to try and a chage his style after a entire career fighting like he does, plus he have not showned signs of improvement in his last 4 fights.

      Really,

      I haven't seen any kind of improvements in Hatton. He's still the same fighter who fought Lazcano, the only difference is that they picked an opponent with zero punching power. Malignaggi makes Manuel Medina look like Julian Jackson.

      If you put pressure and get physical with a guy with no punching power, it makes it easy to look great. But Hatton was walking in without jabs, squared up, getting hit whenever Malignaggi let his hands go.

      I really am not buying this new and improved Hatton business.

        There's no way Hatton is beating Floyd, unless Floyd hasn't trained a day since retirement. With or without Mayweather Sr. in his corner, Ricky still can't take Floyd.

        Ricky hasn't even improved much under Sr's guidance. People just buy the hype and everybody says he has. But the only thing he's doing different is boxing his way in, and moving his head more. And he was doing that long before Mayweather Sr. came into the picture, just look at the first 6 rounds of the Juan Urango fight.

        Ricky was sticking and moving, landing clean shots, moving his head effectively, etc.... Ricky has always had a solid boxing background but people tend to forget that and give Sr. the credit for it, because they haven't seen it in a while.
