    Mayweather - Hatton

    In June we've seen Mayweather completely outclass Gatti (as expected) and Hatton gave Kostya a good ole' roughin' up. So, how do you see Hatton-PBF shaping up? May definitely will not cross the pond, but probably doesn't matter since Ricky says he'll gladly go stateside. Very interested to see if Hatton's team actively seeks May, like he said they "might".

    1. How do you see this match up? Is Mayweather-Hatton simply a longer version of Gatti, say 9 or 10 rounds? Or, does Hatton have what it takes to actually connect on May and make it competitive?

    2. Are you interested in seeing this fight, based on how you see it going?

    I doubt anyone at 140 can be competitive with Floyd...thats just the honest truth.

      With a referee, with balls big enough to correct fighters that you dirty tactics (Hatton). I see this fight getting stopped around the 8th or 9th , with another PBF win.

      To much speed and power , and basically overall skill for the
      brawler Hatton .

        Hatton could be alittle competitive because of his strength and his style. It depends on the ref actually

            Yeah, you need someone that will stop all those elbows in the back of the neck from PBF and the holding down and hitting

            Seriously though, Hatton's quick enough across the ground to get to Floyd and test him out. It'd be more like the Castillo fight than the Gatti one. Hatton's extra strength and power stopping Floyd around the 9th. PBF's more open to the left hook than any other shot which plays to Hatton's strength.

                so do you think PBF got away w/ all these elbows plus the hitting at the break?

                    Yeah he got away with them but they had no effect on the fight, except maybe for leading to the cheap shot when Gatti was complaining to the ref. That kd seemed to strip the last bit of belief from Gatti.
