almost every single one of pbf's opponents game plan was to pressure....

    After the victory people will go on to say that Hatton wasn't a real challenge and Floyd took an easy fight despite all the pre-fight talk we've seen.

    Write that down.

    I agree. Floyd is going to make this so one-sided, tomorrow morning people are going to say "Floyd handpicked this fight. What a *****. Why didn't he fight Cotto?"

    it is true, hatton is a b level fighter, there were so many good fighters at welterweight floyd could have picked to fight but he picked a lil midget who cant box to save his life.

    Chavez who threw no less then 109 punches per round when he fought floyd.
    Castillio who at the time he fought floyd also threw some where in the high 80

    Ndo high volume puncher .
    Emanule Augustus very high volume puncher

    and we could go on for days about how many 130 and 135 fighter throw high volume punches , so floyd has experience with fighter who throw high volumes punches .. I will say any elite 130 and 135 has that experience thats a pre request at that weight .

    no doubt hes dealt with pressure but none of those fighters brought the intensity&relentlessness of hatton&thats why its in question of how floyd will deal with it.

    really hatton pressure has not been impressive against good quality opponents average at best .

    Against lesser fighter his pressure looks amazing but against world class opposition it doesn't look all that much.

    Unless of course you think that Joe Hutching is on the same level as Floyd .

    And the funny thing is people are so stupid focussing on this "pressure" crap and claiming "Floyd hasn't faced anyone who can pressure like Vicky" but let me ask you ******s this!!. WHO THE **** HAS RICKY FACED THAT'S ANYWHERE NEAR FLOYDS LEVEL?.. that's the real ****ing question, Hatton's not gonna know what's hit him when he steps in their with Floyd, people are gonna find out just why the man is rated number one in the game, Vicky doesn't have one advantage he can use in this fight, oh yeah "target the body" against the best damn defence in the game!!.. and what about Ricky's body?.. can he take punches to the ribs?.. i don't think so.

    Floyd is gonna win a close fight and all the joy boys who are predicting that Floyd will dominate will come out with all this "I told you so" bull**** :lol: bookmark this thread so you can laugh when this is exactly what happens after.
