Hatton is the second fastest fighter Mayweather has face at 140+

Judah is quite obviously faster for 6 rounds.

But anyway onto the point...Hatton is faster, significantly so that Oscar.

Sure Oscar can do those bad Calzaghe impersonational flurries. The ones where he hits the air a lot, without much pop and still gets scored rounds for it. But for one punch speed, Hatton is faster and can punch fast with more accuracy in comparison with Oscar.

As some of you may no, I struggled to give Oscar a single round against Floyd. And it goes without saying Hatton will do somewhat better.

Neither of these fighters are in a Calzaghe like lead (they are maybe 30% as good), despite what the American media will try and tell us. Corely landed punches on Floyd, so did other fairly useless fighters. Calzaghe has a superior defence to be honest, especially when you consider the functionality of his defence in that he can be aggressive and throwing thousands of punches at the same time.

So Hatton will hit him enough times. But Floyd will win like.

Floyd will land more bodyshots. He isn't a better body-puncher (though the jab is ok) than Hatton, but defends to the body far better.

Floyd will hurt Hatton with accuracy and handspeed a few times. But he lacks the warrior spirit, mentality of a Joe Calzaghe so might not follow up and go for the KO. We will see.

Hatton's only chance is a points win robbery ala Oscar - Floyd.

Hatton will be outlanded and land less clean shots. But Golden Boy influenced judges might incorrectly score Hatton rounds - citing going forwards as justification.

It is going to be depressing stuff to watch following on from the quality and skill in Calzaghe - Kessler just 2 months back.

 

Floyd is evasive, when fighting defensively.

Calzaghe is impossible to hit even when being aggressive and going forwards.

Such a balanced fighter, leagues above the rest.

Now lets stop making silly anti-Calzaghe arguments, which are bound to make you look a fool and focus on Mayweather - Hatton.

 

Did Manfredo even land a punch?

Calzaghe was absolutely ruthless. I will keep saying it. A perfect performance given the opponent.

 

Calzaghe was barely even touched once he started boxing and Kessler is more accurate than anyone Mayweather has faced.

 

You people have serious issues. Everything is about Calzaghe with you.

There were several paragraphs there not even mentioning the fact Calzaghe is the best boxer in the history of the sport.

 

The only way Oscar could win rounds was by flailing at the air and having his fans cheer this. Kessler is greatly more accurate around 2006/2007.

 

I scored Oscar two rounds. And I was being kind to him. Mayweather landed more and better shots in almost all rounds.
