Why do people STILL think hatton can fight with PBF?

[deliveryman]

Whoa, whoa, Floyd's win over Judah was unimpressive because he lost what? 3 rounds against a faster, slicker, more talented, harder throwing south paw that Collazo can ever dream to be?

The Judah fight only showed that Floyd is a master boxer who can adapt to his opponents, and litteraly embarrass them. Like he did to Judah.

Zab/Floyd could of easily been a draw or gone to Zab. Calling it a blow out, is just wrong.

If you scored that fight closer than 116-112, there's something seriously wrong with you.

Round 1: Zab (nothing really happened here, Zab was the agressor, though)
Round 2: Zab (landed the harder shots)
Round 3: Floyd (Clearly won this round clean snappy punches, Zab didn't land anything effective)
Round 4: Zab (the round with the controversial knockdown)
Round 5-11: Floyd (he embarrasses Zab)
Round 12: Zab (because Floyd did nothing but taunt Zab the entire round, because he knew he won)

Are you serious? You must have eyes like a bat.

Well, you counted 4 rounds for Zab, and Zab had a knockdown, so, it'd be like 5 rounds to 7 or something, right there. I dont really remenber how I scored it, but I think I scored the 1st 5 rounds to Zab, or the rounds were that close.

The Collazo fight enhanced my belief in Hatton's chances against Mayweather. I personally didn't think Hatton stood a chance against Collazo. Collazo's style was designed to give him problems. He was a slick southpaw with quick hands, fast combos, and who was mentally strong. When picking between a clash of styles like this, I measure both mens mental strength. Collazo stood up to the pressure Rivera and Gonzalez put on him and I knew he had it in him to pull off this kind of upset.

Hatton showed in the Collazo fight that he could hang in there and impose his physical strength on fighters who have better technical skill. He has a chance to beat Mayweather, but wouldnt be the favorite.

PBF has looked noticeable slower at 147 as well. Judah lost to Baldomir, so stop hyping that win. Judah is a career underachiever. Hatton poses a threat for the same reason Castillo did. Styles make fights.

And no Fbzm, Hous wasn't wrong. Mitchell is a natural 140 guy all his career, and therefore Floyd's first fight at 147 was not against a naturally framed 147 guy. Hatton's was against Collazo. A big southpaw giving Hatton trouble does not mean little Floyd is gonna beat down Hatton.

That's not to say it can't happen, 'Hatton has no chance' bsaed of the Collazo fight is a thoughtless remark made by people who haven't watched very much boxing.

Well he's not going to follow the Mcguigan suite and fight in the open heat, when he should have fought indoors, so that's good.

THANK YOU!!!!!!

People always say styles make fights but somehow the same people overlook the style disadvantage Hatton was at.
