    I hope its at 140 so Floyd could get undisputed belts at 130,135,140,147 like he shouldve gotten

    It's the same nickname as a famous gangster from the 20s and 30s. "Pretty Boy Floyd" was in actuality, an ugly guy.

    Hence, Mayweather took those pictures for The Ring with the machine gun just like in the early 80s another Michigan welterweight champ with a gangster-type nickname did.

    He didnt give himself the nickname anyways, his olympic teammates did.

    PBF will be all over Hatton like a cheap suit. He will land on him like rain on a tin roof.

    Yea one sided... Gatti all over again.. Unless there was a chance they'd fight at 140 then PBF wouldn't be scared to stand toe 2 toe and just destroy him...

    I'd like to see it but not sure i'd shell out the $$'s for it

    60/40 is Floyds favour. Hatton IMO with his rough style and FAST footwork would be the best antidote to Floyd, even better than Cotto.

    Dunno why people compare Gatti to Hatton. Gatti is a C level fighter, Hatton is elite. Gatti didnt brawl or hunt PBF down, he boxed. If anything Hatton can be said to be a bigger better version of Castillo...who gave PBF hell 1st time round. Id favour Floyd but thinking he will beat Hatton like he did gatti is going a bit far dont you think?

    I'm not saying Ricky is going to KO him, or even beat him. But if your comparing to DLH, Hatton is quicker and will be right in Floyd's grill the entire fight. His style should be more effective than Oscar's was.

    I think Hatton can win this by sheer pressure and punch output. If ODLH can do it, Hatton certainly can.

    Wow...so many are picking Floyd to win , but I really do believe Hattons has the mental (toughness) and the right style to beat Floyd and I do belive Hatton has a better chance of beating Floyd then Cotto does.
    Hatton UD ..oh and i dont think Cotto can beat Floyd.
