    such an upset if he wins? I mean the guy's best win is comparable to floyds best win. People say ricky beat an old injured kosta. Well floyd went to a split decision on ODLH. A split decision. Kosta sat on his stole and refused to continue. whats that tell you? floyd dominated c grade fighters in gatti and baldmoir. Those are c grade fighters, no matter what u say. hatton is going to hurt floyd.

    Resumes don't fight. Break down their actual strengths, weaknesses, and how the two styles will come together in the ring on December 8th.

    corrales was a good win, judah is a bum, he won a split decison against oscar who fights 1 per year. many people say JLC won the fight fight. floyd is going to run all night.

    It will just be a mild upset if Hatton wins. Believe me, this fight will be close and very exciting

    Floyd has one of the few 5 division world champions to ever exist, and the only one to do so undefeated.

    Those were prime Corrales and Castillo fights, not the garbage Hatton just fought in a Castillo that pretty much lost to NGoudjo. Genaro Hernandez, Angel Manfredy, Jesus Chavez (prime Jesus, years before he killed Leavander Johnson in the ring and his loss to Morales), Zab Judah (who whooped Junior Witter, the british guy Hatton's been avoiding for years). Hatton has two wins over elite opponents over the hill, and Floyd has over a dozen world championship fights ranging within 5 weight classes.

    Rewatch the Hatton-Collazo fight. I was there ringside.

    ODLH at 154 at his age may prove to be a tougher fight than Hatton at 147.

    Go to ***********.com and check out what Frank Warren said about Kostya Tzuyu and his fight with Hatton. Please, two years off of boxing and coming back against an injured Sharmba Mitchell proved nothing.

    You haven't followed Floyd's career obviously.

    I think Hatton can win, but theres plenty reasons Floyd is the favorite...some of that comes with being the best pure boxer in the world P4P for 2 years...and being in the top 5 for over 5 years.

    Ricky broke the top 10 this year.

    exactly. both guys are undefeated. hatton is no arturo gatti. That was the last fight where floyd looked awesome. if judah had more hard than the tin man from wizard of oz, he could have beat him.

    styles do make fights. is floyd going to want to trade all night? hatton is going to come forward over and over and over. I cant see how floyd can dominate him. bringing in carlos baldomir to emulate hatton's style? what the hell is that? not even close. i have lawn furniture that with a decent wind moves faster than baldomir.

    everyone has said the same garbage with the same gameplan the last few years. have you not followed the fight game since 2005 when you signed up on ESB?

    That was a bogus split decision. There's a few rounds with which I disagree with Kaczmarek(the judge who scored it for DLH). The most egregious one had to be the 10th round that he somehow scored for DLH. Someone please watch the 10th round of that fight and tell me how in the hell DLH won that round. I don't even think he had one of his bull**** flurries in that round.
