    If Collozo could almost out point him I think Floyd could out point him. Ricky hasn't done well against slick boxers.

    I love the under-rating of Hatton going on on these boards.

    FFS, the guy is the lineal and ring champ at 140, yet all the Floyd Boyz think he's rubbish.

    Hatton's right in that article - he'll pressure PBF for every second of every round - it'll be interesting to see how PBF deals with it, because, as we all know, Castillo had some success with it, and so did DLH. Yet neither Castillo or DLH can do it for 3 minutes nonstop like Hatton can.

    Bring it on Hatton!!!

    I agree with this statement. Hatton will be able to pressure Floyd more than DLH or JLC. But will it be enough? I don't know. I have stated that if Floyd does win, he will have to look really good doing it. The styles should make for a great fight either way.

    You cant believe that. Tho I want Hatton to win, Floyd is all wrong for him.

    Too fast, too good defensively, too smart to let it become an inside brawl.

    Trust me, noone is really underrating Hatton, as much as we are picking with our heads and not our hearts. I cant stand Floyd, but I think there is NO chance he loses this one (aside from a surprise KO). I would love to see Ricky pull it off, but I just dont see it happening.

    It will be a tough fight for both men, and I lean towards Hatton slightly only because of the upset/underdog factor.

    Can't believe what? That Hatton will pressure PBF non-stop every round? Why not? He's certainly capable of doing just that. It's obviously the key to beating PBF - he obviously doesn't like pressure, and Hatton is very good at applying it.

    PBF stays away from opponents who pressure him until they tire themselves, then he moves in for the kill. Hatton won't tire, so it will be interesting to see how PBF handles it in the later rounds.

    And yes, I may be picking with my heart slightly by picking Hatton to win, but I honestly believe Hatton has a better chance than anyone else of upsetting PBF.

    I like the way Hatton thinks . . . he is a winner. I love that. But saying that Mayweather cannot out point him is a stretch. A very long stretch. I guess he thinks that his pressure for this fight will be the general ship throughout, I don't. Mayweather is going to command the ring, a great fight is coming.
