    Floyd was fully confident that he would be able to punish and wear Hatton out throughout the course of the fight, eventually knocking him out, and that's exactly what he did.

    Sure, he must of had a few butterflies in the stomach moments before the fight, and for the first couple rounds, but I'd be worried for any fighter that didn't have butterflies before a fight. Fighters use the adrenaline from nervousness and transform it into energy.
    Definetely, I agree.

    I don't think Hatton is a great, but he has an iron will and when Mayweather fought him- he was at his mental peak. He was a dangerous opponent. Great fighters don't treat world class fighters like Ricky with contempt, otherwise he would wreck their day.

    We've seen guys overlook guys before and look awful.

        PBF never hurt DLH. He held back cuz exchangin woulda given DLH his only chance to win. He fought smart and wore hatton down before he startin goin all out. And the shot that finished Hattin was a counter as Hatton was steppin in.

            If you look at Floyd's body language he was very relaxed the whole fight. He consistently landed at will but he never followed up, I think because he was cooking Ricky Hatton so he could knock him out like the way he did. I think he also coasted in the De la Hoya fight too, to an extent because look how many times he hurt DLH bad but stayed back. If you look at other fights he always follows up and knows when to follow up on his shots....like for example, Mitchell, Gatti, Corrales, etc...
            Uh, Mitchell, Gatti and Corrales ain't exactly on De La Chicken's or Fatton's level. Floyd Jr. obviously had respect for Fatton and the guy that recently got his @ss kicked.

                He buckled Oscar, whether Oscar was hurt from the punch or not, his body responded to that right hand when Floyd was against the ropes.

                    PBF knew he had to be patient, take away Hattons game and wait for him to start making mistakes, once he did PBF punished him.

                    PBF could do that to any fighter, thats why he's the best.
