Do any Floyd Fanboys think Hatton has a chance?

I think Hatton has a very good chance of a upset , he has the tools , skill , strength , and speed to give Floyd Problems .

BUT, there is that BIG BUT , there that part of him that wants to proves that he's just an average, that he goes off eats tons of fried food, and chugs down pints of Beer.. He reminds me of James Tony who followed the same life style of trying to prove he was still one of the Hommies on the Block. Enough Talent to beat anyone of Top ten contenders , but very inconsistent when fighting elite fighters.

If Hatton can lock this side of him in a trunk somewhere till Dec 8 he has a very good chance .

 

So much depends on the ref with Hattons mauling/infighting style.
If its Nady Hatton may as well not turn up.
Also the tale of the tape is critical. If Hatton is percieved as a physical threat by Floyd after the first round he'll become typically conservative and we'll have a messy negative ud for Floyd in which neither fighter will emerge with much credit.
If the opposite is the case then I see something along the lines of Mayweather vs Chavez. Possibly a bit more competitive though.

 

This is a 2 way street , when most haters of floyd stop making stupid statement like , he a runner , he never fights the , so on and so on ..
Anyone that is a student of the Sport know that none of the statement about floyd is True . the fact is, Floyd is a Brilliant that does everything that a fighter should do in Gym , and that is work extremely hard, Floyd isn't where he is because of talent , he where is because of hard work and that alone should be respected .

 

You are 1 of the few. Read these boards and you'll see exactly what I mean. No matter who he signs to fight there are people that say he should've fought someone else.

 

I disagree with you here. the fact that a fight against an undisputed champion is a gimme fight for Floyd imo definately enhances and cements his position as p4p champ. The more impressively and easily Floyd beats Hatton, the more his legacy benefits. Hatton beat both Tszyu and Castillo, and if Floyd beat him easily, then for me it will tremendously boost his p4p status.

 

Just for this comment, I'll take that bet with you on this fight. the article one. You better hope Hatton doesn't pull an upset :yep

 

Im a huge Floyd Mayweather fan...been following him since he beat Genero Hernandez. Most talented fighter of the past 10 years in boxing, Roy Jones was in the last generation. Like Jones, Mayweather's competition has been in question since the pair of Castillo fights. Hatton IMO is his best opponent since he beat a prime Castillo(not the worn shell Hatton beat.) Hatton has a great chance at winning the fight. Its just a matter of how much punishment he is willing to take and can take to press Mayweather 12 rounds or less. ODLH and Baldomir were waaaay larger than Mayweather so he adjusted to a more defensive style to beat the larger men who were 160+ come fight time. Hatton on the other hand is smaller, but a more active tenacious fighter. Mayweather will be more aggressive against Hatton since he has shown to be offensive against smaller fighter at 140-147(Corley, Gatti, Judah, and Mitchell for example.)So this will open opportunities for Hatton. The bad thing is Mayweather is the best counterpuncher in the sport and a ring general. For Hatton to win he will need controlled pressure to beat Mayweather, not the lunging he does at times, and to smother Mayweather's punches and keep the fight out of ring center where he has little chance. He has the style and strength and stamina to but does he have the chin????? Hatton will take more flush sharp hits than he ever took in his career. Does he have to endurance and chin we will see DEC. 8

 

Faulty logic. Just because a fighter beats another fighter rather easily, doesn't mean it wasn't a good win. If Hatton were to completely dominate Floyd would it be appropriate to say that it wasn't a good win, just becasue he handled him easily? Of course not. Hatton is undefeated and a top 10 p4p fighter. It doesn't matter how Floyd beats him, just beating an undefeated, young, p4p fighter is a good win.

 

:good

 

When was the last time Mayweather messed someone up?
