Why do people STILL think hatton can fight with PBF?

[Hous]

seriously, I keep reading on t his site about people thinking hatton vs PBF will be a good match.

You have too be kidding me. He was almost KTFO by Luis Collazo who is not even know for his power. I saw a hatton who had no defense and couldn't keep up with collazo's hand speed. He didn't even have much power at 147. Simply put, Hatton would get WORKED at 147 vs PBF. I mean PBF would pick him apart. If collazo tore his face up, imagine what PBF what do to that face.


Get off the guys nuts, he couldn't handle a mediocore fighter at 147 so what makes you think he'll put up a fight against PBF?

He can't get away with his holding in the US and nows he's getting exposed.

Discuss.

First I would place my bets on PBF.

Why wouldn't they think he would give a good fight against PBF? Look at the facts buddy.
-Floyds first fight at 147 was against a natural Super Lightweight.
-Hattons was against a natural Superwelterweight that recently went down to welter. Hatton put on seven pounds of muscle in 6 weeks, noone can adapt to that weight in six weeks.

-Floyds victory over Judah was unimpressive.
-Hattons victory over Collazo was unimpressive.

-Hatton fought a man that carried all of the qualities that give him trouble:
--Height.
--Southpaw.
-Mayweather doesn't carry these qualities.

I dont expect this to change your mind but these are the unbiased facts like it or not.

Most people say if Hatton wants a shot in hell at beating Mayweather he has to do it at 140, I disagree. I strongly feel that Hatton would be better off fighting Mayweather at 147 for two reasons:
-Mayweather doesnt have the build to fight at welterweight, Hatton does.
-Hatton will have plenty of time to adapt to 147, instead of six weeks.

Wrong, PBF first fight at 147 was mitchell and I would say that was a beatdown.

-Hattons was against a natural Superwelterweight that recently went down to welter. Hatton put on seven pounds of muscle in 6 weeks, noone can adapt to that weight in six weeks.

If hatton can't reach the weight at 147, why even move up?

-Floyds victory over Judah was unimpressive.

LOL! After reading this, i can't take you seriously. Why do you say this? because mayweather didn't KO him? PBF systematically broke judah down..up to a point where judah was looking for a way out of the fight. Mayweather got hit with 1 clean shot and thats about it.
-Hattons victory over Collazo was unimpressive.

-Hatton fought a man that carried all of the qualities that give him trouble:
--Height.
--Southpaw.
-Mayweather doesn't carry these qualities.

Well, height and being a southpaw will give anyone problems. I'd say mayweather fought someone who would give him trouble because judah has faster hands and is a southpaw...and i'd say mayweather handld him pretty easily.

-Mayweather doesnt have the build to fight at welterweight, Hatton does.
-Hatton will have plenty of time to adapt to 147, instead of six weeks.

wrong wrong wrong. Hatton has a very small frame and is small at 147. He also lacked power at 147 and his defense is terrible. PBF would pick him apart and any boxing fan would knows this.

I may be getting a bit carried away here but Hatton has about as much chance as Arturo Gatti did with PBF. The outcome will be the same. Hatton is a small Welter and his style is taylor made for PBF. Floyd will just break him down. Seriously though , He beats Kostya Tszyu and all of a sudden he's a frikin superstar ?He's one dimensional and if Collazo didn't fight in spurts he could have probably kept his title.

You only proved me wrong with the mitchel thing, he did fight mitchell at 147. Mitchell was also a Super lightweight in his prime, you would know this if you did your homework. He only moved up to Welterweight as he was getting older and had fought only once at welter prior to his bout with Mayweather at the age of 35!

I never said Hatton couldn't make 147, he makes it quit easily.

Floyd has problems making weight at 147, he came into the Judah fight at 146, he is a smaller welterweight and some say he is going to 154! The people who fight in welterweight walk around with an extra 15 pounds that Mayweather is unable to do. I think even Hatton walks with something like 20lbs more than Mayweather, he just has a larger FRAME!

It was unimpressive because Judah troubled Mayweather.

Yes but it is abnormally difficult for Ricky Hatton, he handles very talented Orthodox fighters so much easier than anyone else does, but is troubled so much more by just above average Southpaws.

wrong wrong wrong. Hatton has a very small frame and is small at 147. He also lacked power at 147 and his defense is terrible. PBF would pick him apart and any boxing fan would knows this.

Hatton has a extremely large frame at his height, saying he doesn't is just ******ed. He has massive shoulders, do you know what fram means? Its not height moron!

Its funny because you were so confident repeating wrong three times. Noone in their right mind will tell you Hatton has a small frame at his height.

I do beleive you are one of the dumbest members of the forums! Im not voicing my opinions here, Im voicing what everyone said post Judah fight and post Collazo fight on both sides. Why are you stuping to even argue with this?

Of course I think Mayweather will beat Hatton, Im just able to look at things from other angles. He does stand a better chance than most of the options open to Mayweather. Thats how we differ, your too stuborn to give credit where its due if you dont like what the FACTS are. And thats what they are... Facts.

Hey bro , that dude in your AVATAR is from Vancouver B.C. , he use to train at my gym. I forgot his name but he fights overseas in Japan I think.

Your post is wrong in many levels but I'm about to go to sleep now. What really gets me is this : "It was unimpressive because Judah troubled Mayweather."
That actually made me chuckle.

And yes, hatton has a very small frame at 147. We'll discuss that later you clueless ****.

Styles make fights, and it blows me away that some people right him off because he struggled with a guy who's completey different from Floyd Stylisticly.

I think Floyd would beat him, but suggesting Hatton can't fight with Floyd is petty imo.

[Cereal]

this is the same guy that said calzaghe posed no threat to lacy. and showed a picture of him running away up the beach. so pardon me if i don't take your statements as infallible.

[AllEyesOpen]

I hate the fact that people downplay the Judah win, when Judah is primed he's hands down on of the best WW out there, and he came prepared to face the p4p champ and got his ass beat, once PBF adjusted the fight was his(i guess that's why it was unimpressive), you'd appreciate Floyd's victories of you're a lover of the sweet science. I'd say the Mitchell gave him a very small amount of trouble becuase he was a southpaw, but he still knocked him out. Hatton doesn't have speed to be effective at 147 against a boxer like Collazo and he was real flatfooted compare to Mayweather. Floyd would beat him at 147 or 140, he owns the ring and his punches are so percise and constantly effective that it would end sooner or later with a TKO or UD

[Manager]

Count me in as one who believes that Hatton would be way overmatched against PBF. I doubt this fight will ever happen. If Hatton’s team allows this to happen then they obviously do not give a **** about their fighter. Ricky needs to go back down in weight where he has the abilities to dominate for a long time, just as Bernard did at middle.
