    maybe a wimp but a wimp that would bring it to collazo if they ever fought. by the way i had hatton up by one point at the end of the collazo fight only beacause of that flash knockdown. and forget about being bigger he outboxed hatton during the middle to end of the fight.

      Come on Smokin, your startin to hate on Floyd too much now. Do you think he can beat anyone? Every matchup you have him losing and half of them you have him getting killed.

      Hatton is the strongest ever at 140-147? Give me a break. Dude got pushed around by a weak guy in Callazo and your going to try to tell me how strong he is.

      Hatton is just a aggressive style fighter. Its a style that most guys dont use but that doesnt mean your stronger then everyone. If everyone fought like that then alot of others would look stronger.

      You think he's stronger then Margarito? Castillo fights at 135 and he's probally stronger then Hatton at 140. Are you sure that Hatton would be stronger then Cotto? I thought you said Shane was so strong. Is Hatton stronger then him? Hatton was stronger then Mayorga? Im not buying it

        People also forget that COllazo is much, much bigger then Floyd. If you would compare the two it would be a landslide. Mayweather is a wimp compared to Luis.

        Uhhh...Mayweather is capable of boxing southpaw, and Collazo is pretty featerfisted for a WW.

          he may be able to fight at southpaw but roger urges him to revert back to orthodox for a reason

            Hatton's last three fights (against his three toughest opponents by far) tell us all that we need to know about him. His boxing skills are limited, defense is poor, and he relies heavily on roughhouse tactics to win tough fights. If a ref calls Hatton on clinching excessively, holding and hitting, and hitting on the break should he ever fight Mayweather, Ricky will be ****ed. ****, if Collazo had starting fighting Hatton's fight instead complaining to the ref about Hatton's continuos fouls and getting smacked around for his trouble a few rounds earlier, he would have won that fight.


            If the rules are enforced and Hatton isn't allowed to smother Mayweather I think he'll lose a wide UD, or a late rounds stoppage due to cuts (which he is very susceptible to) or swelling.

              Even if it isn't hiss forte, Mayweather fighting lefty is a still better than Collazo.

                lol another person who knows **** all about hatton
                if hes boxing skills are "limited" why has he got a very succesful amature background
                hes defence is poor? how
                he might not thave the tighest guard in the world but the way he moves hes head and feat makes him not need the best defence in the world.
                in the kostya tszyu fight he changed hes style to accomadate zoos power , which obviously worked cause he stopped him better than anybody would of that night.
                after the huge succes he had with the stlye he used it against maussa , even tho he had trouble early on with him he still knocked him with a torrefic punch and what i thought was a candidate for knockout of the year.
                the collazo fight was a total blip on hattons account , hes never been the best with dealing with the southpaw stance and still figured to take hes new found stlye with him , he got the knockdown and thought it was the ticket for succes. collazo used hes southpaw jab to good affect but still wilted to hattons relentles preasure

                    You just cant compare Hatton to Duran.

                    you just offically insulted Duran.

                      look this is startin to sound like a hating game and hu can hate hu the worst. Look to say that 1 wil dominate the other is an over-statement lets wait however long it takes then we will c who they cope.

                      But i must admit im a Hatton fan so i no hu i want 2 win anyway.
