Floyd mentions a Hatton fight, "likely to take place next year".

[EXIGE]

I think Hatton will fight Floyd if the fight takes place n Manchester...and no where else.


I think Floyd will fight Hatton if the fight takes place in the states...and no where else.

AKA-This fight aint happening.

Not at all. Hatton has said, he's gonna finish his career in the states. He has also said he is willing to go over there....

I heard that Hattons new promoter likes to get fights in the US for his boys...Maybe we will see him in the States after this fight with Maussa.

IMO I would like to see Cotto-Hatton first and then the winner go against Floyd at 140 or 147.

[borikua]

get it thru ur thick skill kids, Hatton is the real deal and he is the only 140 lber that has a shot at beating Floyd. Watch another fight other then Tszyu and you will see, Hatton has the goods. That shoulder roll bull**** ain't gonna work on Hatton and the non-stop pressure is going to get to Floyd. We still don't know how much heart Floyd has, but he seems pretty soft.

lol...Cotto is the real deal at 140, He has a better shot against Floyd than Hatton..

They're both great fighters, and it will be a great fight if they get it on.

We shouldn't question Floyd's heart though, he's prove time and time again no weaknesses in that department despite his hands problems in the past and going toe-to-toe with a lot of guys he never needed to. He's fought of top-class pressure fighters already. Hatton like Castillo will give him plenty of trouble though.

Floyd Mayeather - "A showdown with Britain's IBF light welterweight champion Ricky Hatton looks likely to take place next year".

Do you think this is just bull**** talk because it's the day before his fight, and 8 days before Hatton's fight?

problem is i dont knwo which weight considering floyd jus went up

[Alpha Male]

The main reason I would give Floyd the advantage over Hatton is just the pure fact that Floyd has faced boxers who pressure and are good inside fighters like Hatton. In other words he has faced guys who have similar styles to Hatton and although those guys did compete with Mayweather the fact still remains that Mayweather beat them and has faced that type of fighter before.

Hatton on the other hand has never faced a guy with as much speed as Mayweather, as much stamina as Mayweather or a person with as well rounded of a defensive technique as Mayweather has. Basically Hatton may have thrived against the perfect style for him in Tszyu but who's to say he will be able to thrive against a smooth counterpuncher with lightning speed who's also evasive??

And thats what puts him in a disadvantage in my opinion.

Who would you be going for?

[SugaShane]

The only two styles that are going to beat Mayweather is a super-slick even better boxer then him (hes p4p king in that department) so other then that the only other style that will have success is non-stop pressure. Castillo beat him the first fight and the second fight wasn't a total blowout like everyone said, most were close rounds. Now Hatton...bigger, stronnger, faster, younger version of Castillo with an extreme work rate. I see Hatton pulling this out in a very close fight testing the heart of both fighters.

Kind of like how Oscar beat your boy in the second fight?
