    I know mayweather would have beaten hatton at any of those weights... but I still believe if this fight would have happend at 140, hatton at least could have been more competitive... what you guys think? congrats to mayweather, he truly deserves this victory to quiet some of his critics...

    pbf was even better at 140 imo. faster.

    but at least hatton can still become a great WBU champion....

    I think Hattons a better fighter then what he showed last night. Not saying he could have won!. But on another night and yea maybe at 140 it could have been a different story. At least more competitive.

    Still cant see him winning it though!

    Honesty, Hatton would've gotten beat even worse. Floyd was 27 when he fought at 140. He was also faster, and put combinations together much more frequently. Hatton is still the same fighter he was 3 years ago.

    At 140 it would have been worse. PBF was alot faster there and had more pop as well.

    And if my Aunt was my Uncle, maybe I would be a tranny... We can only clarify on what we have seen; and that is (sadly) Mayweather is a level above Ricky... Me thinks 7lbs is not going to change that.
