Hatton Admits He's Afraid of Floyd Mayweather

[Boxerdog]

Floyd is something very special...no doubt about it.
But last time I checked Hatton had a big goose-egg in the loss collumn too. You never know. If the term "puncher's chance" was EVER appropriate, it is in this case.

You may be right, but you're wrong for encouraging JuyJuy

[Jarlaxle]

Holyfield said the same about Tyson. Hattons respect or fear makes him tougher. My money is still on Mayweather cuz he respects/fears Hatton too.

[Boxerdog]

Didn't know it was JuyJuy for one thing.
For another, he has never said anything rude or petty to me personally.
You probably know something that I don't about the dude.

but who says when Hatton connects Mayweather would be hurt. Mayweather has been buzzed once in his entire career and that lasted all of two seconds.

I don't care who you are, if Hatton lands his trademark left hook to the body with full momentum then any human being would be in agony.

[BLOODSHED]

Hahahha, why all the hate?

And why Fit Finley in your av?

Floyd has proven to everyone that he could take a punch. I think you need to stop hugging those nuts.

Also that's IF! Hatton lands his trademark left hook. Which i doubt he would land. Atleast with full momentum he wont with the speed of mayweather.

I don't think that the interview indicates that he is scared.

BUT THE FACT THAT HE HAS TURNED DOWN THE MAYWEATHER FIGHT OFFER THREE TIMES AND IS STILL ASKING FOR "TUNE-UPS" DOES.

An active champion asking for "tune-ups"??

Well in his last fight he was clearly not his usual self and suffering mentally from all the problems outside the ring. And it's not tune-ups as such, it's mainly to raise his profile in America but also to get experience of fighting in America. He believes he has the beating of Mayweather, so why not actually make the fight bigger (and also give himself a better chance of winning)?

He's already promised that the Mayweather fight will happen in 2006, if Mayweather wants it.
