Final Say - is it Hatton or maywether

In the Collazo and Urango fights Hatton faded badly towards the end and couldnt keep the work rate up!!!

 

And in every other 12 rounder he's taking part in he's finished strongly. I'll give him the benefit of doubt but we'll see for sure saturday.

 

Yeh but the ones in the past 2 years he hasnt!

 

Carlos Maussa might argue with that.

 

Im going for a big upset and for ricky to outpoint or even stop floyd late....
Hatton will bring the fighting spirit of his first world title win and show mayweather the real meaning of the word 'pressure fighter',floyds heart is going to let him down and show everybody he is not even the best fighter in the world ,never mind GOAT....
(hatton showed great stamina,chin and heart against KT by the way.)

 

Thats some detailed prediction :good

I want Ricky to win but a i think Floyd will win on points or a late cuts stoppage.

 

So a fighter who has fought his whole career with bad hands, won fights with broken hands, never been on the canvas, won 5 world titles and in his last fight fought a guy that weigh a stone and a half more than him on the night but took his punches, his Heart is going to let him down right???? Bloody Hell

 

Well i have been thinking about it alot.

 

Get off floyds nuts,he has never fought a great near prime fighter and in which fight did he show heart? Many fighters break their hands and win....
Fact is at 147 he hasnt shown heart but a safety first approach....
Dont be deceived by the five weights sisx titles crap,who has he fought?
He arguably lost to castillo and old fat de la hoya....

 

Would love to see Hatton win by KO, but have a very nasty feeling a draw is on the cards...... 25/1 anyone?

 

Mate you really have no knowledge of the sport if you believe that. Mayweathers resume is arguably the best in boxing right now and among the very best since Ray Leonard.... in terms of collecting names the only fighters who compare in the last 15 years are Evander Holyfield, Pernell Whitiker, Lennox Lewis, Terry Norris and maybe De La Hoya.

 

Nowt wrogn with a safety first approach, hit and dont get hit, no?

not fought any prime fighter? Corrales, when they fought?

Not shown heart? He showed bollocks the size of football's to fight DLH. 126lbs - 154lbs !

 

Furthermore Manfreddy, Hernandez, Corrales, Castillo, De La Hoya, Judah were all the top men in the division at the time Floyd fought them.... and there just the ones who immediately spring to mind. I can't be arsed logging on to boxrec to completely refute your coments enquirer... ps read your points about running and conditioning on another forum- good read.

 

Ok,im judging floyd by the standards of the all time greats like ray leonard,sweet pea,duran,monzon and such like.
By near prime fighter i mean all time great,ricky has kostya floyd has no atg,de la hoya is old and well past it...
His resume is great for todays money fighters,but sweet pea,lennox and guys like that had far better resumes v live fighters over a long period of time...
Floyd has fought one half live fighter ( in old de la hoya) since he beat castillo second time,how good is his resume from 140 and up guys?
Mark my words and tell me after the hatton fight how good floyd is.....
Leonards beating hearns at welter is better than the entire of floyds career...chavez has a far better resume than floyd,even jones beat some atgs in his career...Sweet pea beating chavez (draw my ass.) is better than all mayweathers career again,whitaker showed true heart by taking on and beating the best. Floyd didnt take on KT and runs from the current welters to fight a lt welter who he considers c class...I dont know one fighter who floyd has beat that will be remembered in years to come except de la hoya and maybe hatton,if he beats him...
ps; just because manfredy,corrales etc were the best available doesnt mean they were great fighters...

 

Best available is all we can expect from anybody. I want Hatton to win- in fact i've picked him but I still respect Floyds achievements.
