    He can think in there and has always been an amazing talent.
    And what would you call PBF?he is one of the most skillful,pure boxers ever seen so far.........Hatton is good and feisty but he is not nearly the BOXER which was the question that PBF is.

          P4P #1 means best in the game when it comes to skills (if weight is not an issue).
          That being said. Mayweather.

            I say Mayweather's the better BOXER... but I actually think Richard Hatton will beat him.

                A "boxer" actually "boxes". Hatton is a fighter, who has demonstrated some good but limited "boxing" skills. Hatton's success comes because his "fighter" skills, including his high-out move-forward style, have overwhelmed the combined "boxing" and" fighting" skills of his opponents.

                  Well, you haven't seen much of Hatton then.

                  In the amateurs and his early pro career (before he started using weights) he had faster hands than Mayweather has now, always bouncing on his feet and alert.. picked his shots well, always remaining calm and composed. Hatton is a good thinker who can use effective 'in and out' tactics against counter-punchers, it's impressive how he moves his head on the way in and throws a little jab on the way out. He can punch from angles you didn't know existed, and uses a large variety of punches that you won't find in any textbook. His skill level is phenonimal.

                    Do you think Richard Hatton will do him like he did Tszyu or do you think it'll play out a little different?

                      Whatever the amatuers were a long time ago read above what other people have said they seem to agree with me.....you act like I am taking something away from Hatton and I am not I am simply saying Floyd is a much more skilled BOXER than Hatton thats all.
