    honestly Gaz, im not comparing hatton to Gatti. two very different fighters, two very different styles. All I am saying is, if Hatton cant get to Floyd early rough him up then Floyd will do what he done to Gatti & take him apart on the outside. Hatton is the smaller man, the slower man & isnt a great boxer. If he cant win Floyds respect early, look for Floyd to trounce him, cos Hatton hasnt got the defence to dodge or block those lightning fast punches.

    I just honestly think Hatton, like Gatti before will be out of their depth. I could be wrong though! & I would e lying if I said I wasnt impressed with how Hatton has looked in the build up. In the shape of his life, & speaking with an intensity I havent seen before from him. Hes up for it, his fans will overrun the place on fight night & once again, it will be like fighting in Manchester for him. I still dont think it will be enough though, but every little helps!

    As for Enzo, I still feel bad for him that Haye won the belts & didnt give the fans what they wanted, instead making career suicide by thinking he can hang with the heavies instead. I dont buy Hayes excuses that he couldnt make the weight anymore. Its all relative now though I suppose... & the thing is, I think Haye would beat Enzo anyway! Hes got that speed that is a massive advantage at cruiser. In fact, I think Haye could have reigned for a long time at Cruiser. Its crazy that hes jumped up to heavy.
