    If Hatton gets back to moving in and out and putting his punches together like he used to instead of loading up I'd still favour him. He's not going to catch Floyd with **** if he just tries to bull forward and bomb him out. I think his work to the body is the decisive factor, he's been neglecting this in his last couple of fights.

    Oh, and he hasn't gone quiet on Floyd. He mentions him in practically every interview he does.

      Hatton has a better chance now than before the Collazo fight.

      Atleast he knows how NOT to prepare for a fight at Welterweight.
      I favor Floyd, but Hatton will have to impress the judges ALOT to win, like literally win more than 8 rounds, otherwise the decision will go to Floyd.

        I agree!!! I never thought that Hatton could beat Mayweather anyway & the Collazo fight proved it even more so. From welter to jr welter I believe JLC is the most skilled fighter who I see stopping Hatton if they fight.

          Hatton and Floyd should've fought or scheduled each other this or next year. Both have lost steam in their careers, complicated by the fact that Cotto remains a huge wildcard payday for each of them.

          Floyd needs to step it up, not Hatton. Hatton proved himself against Collazo, now, now Floyd needs to prove himself against Baldo. On paper this looks easy, but Baldo is gonna be there every second of the fight, putting the kind of pressure Floyd has never experienced and Baldo his hugely stronger. Floyd is lucky he's an old man and not a young gun.
          Are u crazy? Hatton has stepped it up, but Floyd needs to in Baldomier? Collazo is a poor man's Zab judah. Hatton is no good, he is a wrestler, not a boxer. yeah Collazo is bigger and maybe stronger, but Floyd is alot faster and quicker and smarter and just flat out way better. Why don't u people from across the pond just face it, Prince naseem is the best thing yall have had in a long time.

            listen we can talk about this fight all day but there's still somebody who doesnt want this fight , and hasnt since he was ringside at Mayweather vs Gatti
            Exactly. Castillo got good head movement and he is a slick boxer, not a wrestler. He sets his inside game up by using boxing skills, Hatton is nowhere near elusive or as quick as castillo and we'll see that, if they fight after Jan. and u right, once Gatti got whooped on in front of their eyes neither hatton nor cotto has been in a rush to get in the ring with the P4P truth. hatton does mention it, but every year it is next year when he feels like they should fight!!

              ** Floyd ain't done squat since squeaking by Castillo. Castillo may have ruined him.

              He turned down the biggest payday of his career against Margarito, and he hasn't lobbied for the best 140 lbers, Hatton or Cotto. Like I stated, he's lost steam, plus he's become a boring fighter that won't step up to a big challenge anymore. A headcase, Zab, gave him almost more than he could handle. All can say is he better have his head screwed on against Baldo.

                he turned down the payday to fight the undisputed champ

                He offered Hatton a fight 2wice and his own dad Ray admitted they turned it down

                Arum would never put Cotto in with PBF not after the Gatti fight

                just at your post

                    I don't see anybody beating Hatton at 140.

                      Anybody who takes the Collazo fight seriously is an idiot.
