    Looking back, it might have been part of a ploy to frustrate Hatton..... in the lead up to the fight Hatton was full of himself about how he was going to be all over Mayweather like a rash and would make him fold.

    Ricky's over-eagerness at times ruined the better work that he was doing from mid-range.... Mayweather was smart enough to realise that, and more than capable of beating Hatton up close.

    It could be the opposite - that he was made uncomfortable, roughed up and eventually pulled clear to win by stoppage.

    Floyd is a boxing computer with a Hardrive full of boxing knowledge. And as awkard as Manny is he aint seen NOTHING like Floyds counter of the roll game. As tricky as Manny is most of that stuff hits shoulders. And say Manny surprises him .is it enough to FINISH Floyd and whats worst...what happens when Floyd dissects, analyzes and makes the necessary adjustments to Manny's fight style.

    I see this one getting UGLY.

    Floyd hasn't really stood in the pocket with fighters since he left 135. It's part of the reason his fights are perceived as being a little boring now. If he goes on the back foot, I don't see how he wins a decision here and he certainly won't knock him out going backwards.

    Mayweather has brilliant ability but he's not even close to being the best of all-time.

    I think that the styles of both these fighters mean that this contest could be a long drawn out affair with PBF fightingon the back foot and Pac Man trying to counter...

    I think that in the finest traditions of Las Vegas boxing it might be a draw in the first contest which could lead to a trilogy...:think
