    There should only be 2 options, FMJ by dec & FMJ by KO.

    You should have did a public poll, its better IMO, the answers are more often than not, more truthful.

    Ps. I voted Floyd by decision but the KO is just as likely.

    I double dare you to bet big bucks on Pacquiao vs Mayweather, that should be a right good laugh.

    Oi cumon this is about if it happened at 140! He wasnt rocked a number of times, he took a few flush from URango, maussa, tzsyu, castillo! Quite clearly he was caught square against magee and magee ran off for the rest of the fight. In all honesty Mayweather did end hattons career and he has been downhill ever since, forget beating down Malignaggi cos even that wasnt vintage hatton he would of done malignaggi within 6 when he was in his prime. Mayweather took the edge, the invincibility from hatton hence the poor lazcano fight altho he easily won. But prime at 140 hatton wins UD

    So in 5½ months & in consecutive fights, Hatton went from prime to shot?

    Look, we all know Hatton as shot to pieces, Floyd took too long and then made the fight to heavy.

    Hatton binge drinking etc meant he killed his career , so he peaked when he was 24-25, Ok, he did smash up a pretty much prime Castillo, but we also saw how he struggled against Urango.

    Before Cortez started cheating Hatton was up on the judges scorecards and nearly knocked Mayweatehr out, the umpire changed that fight, and i do believe Hatton would have maybe won a SD or lost a SD that night, hard to say after the cheating.

    Regardless, a prime Hatton at 140 probably finishes a prime Mayweather.

    Yes Mayweathers a good fighter, but outside of a green Castillo, who has he beaten? ( the first fight Castillo won by a distance anyway)

    Don't even mention that bum Marquez to me, he isn't even a warrior.

    Hatton wasn't shot when he fought Mayweather. Plus I think he done better against him then a lot of people give him credit for.

    Hatton was not past his prime in the Mayweather or Pacquiao fight he just simply was an overhyped GOOD fighter. Hatton beat horrible fighters up until he elbowed,lowblowed,hugged Tszyu until he quit, got his ass kicked by Collazo but was gave a gift, was on ***** street vs Lazcano but the ref saved him over some shoestrings, beat a shot Castillo. His win over Malignaggi is very good and by far his best win IMO considering Malignaggis level and Hatton actually dominating him in a clean fight.

    Regardless of the weight, hatton loses. Some people use the reference of what castillo did as a blueprint to beat floyd, but forget to take into consideration that styles make fights and hattons style doesnt do anything but get his ass caught by check left hooks. People also forget that 147 isnt even mayweathers best weight. He was better at 140.

    The fight isnt going to happen, Cotto is stopping Pacquiao, unless Floyd still agrees to fight Manny comming off a loss, its not like Floyd hasnt done that before in his past....:hi:

    I do agree that Hatton was not as effective above 140, but I don't agree that he was "shot". I think Floyd would've won a UD against Hatton at 140.

    I don't see Hatton ever beating Floyd! I was a Ricky fan until the Pac fight and must say that Ricky made an ass of himself when he fought Pac. He gave himself up to Pac.
