Well said. I think Hatton is the one to beat Mayweather. People forget how quick he is too, and powerful.
People think that PBF is just going to jab and run against Hatton and Cotto and they wont be able to get to him, wrong. DLH was able to trap him and unleash on him so Hatton and Cotto being only 26-28 and in their prime will have more success.
A prime Castillo's best weight is 135. Ricky loves beating up on blown up lightweights, I agree he would have won. Ricky won't beat a prime PBF, or a prime Cotto. I betcha neither fight happens. Other then those two fighters, Ricky will beat most others from 147 down. He is an elite fighter, please don't take my criticism of his opponents, as a criticism of his skill. He's my 3rd favorite fighter. (behind Gatti and Cotto)
There were great wins. Stop bringing up other names who would beat Hatton. Just give the man his dues. As I've said, people thought Tszyu and Castillo would do so and so. They were wrong. DLH is still a potent force. He performed exceptionally well. What did I say about being a fan boy - 'Not you specifically'. ****.
I have seen Hatton try to box and it is pretty rough. He can do it, but he would struggle to out box a journeyman fighter. He wouldn't dream of doing it against boxings elite. He is one dimensional IMO, but the thing is you know what he is going to do, it is your job to work out how to stop him. That is one of the things I like about Hatton, is that he makes you change the way you fight, not vice versa.
Hatton is too open defensively to beat Mayweather. He will give floyd too many opportunities to pot shot him.
Your a spangle! I brought up those names, as my point was, in reference to the title "dont fight Hatton on the inside, PBF is the man", that Tszyu had shown us how to beat Hatton, see my first post, and that Mayweather would beat him using that approach. And I quote, from your post "but you are all fan boys" Are you an idiot, or an irritant, I can decide?
