Hatton is the smaller man against Mayweather?

Hatton signed me his book 2 weeks ago so i saw him in the flesh and he was the same size as lennox lewis...! lol, dont worry bye december he will be the most ripped fighter on the planet again!!!

 

Yeah right . . . how one carries the weight . . . where? In or out of the ring? :hey

Hatton looks like **** when he fought at 147 and admitted he's not comfortable at that weight class that's why he has decided to comeback to 140 . . . isn't that right? While Floyd even looks good at 154.

. . . now talk about how a fighter carries the weight. :yep

 

Lol..:rofl Not even close. Hatton's BEST weight to fight is 140 period. How the hell he gets down to that weight is beyond me. It's definilty not his natural weight but he's able to do his best work and be the bigger man at 140.

Maywether's best weight is 135 PERIOD...He may have a hard time getting down to that weight but he can do it...he was just at 140 2 years ago. He can definitley do it, but will he be drained? Probably b/c he has grown in to his body more..but he's a small guy regardless....Hatton is a larger man...if you see both men not in a trainign camp the evidence is clear that Hatton is bigger.

 

How one carries the wieght in everyday life...:hey ! Hatton did look like **** when he stepped up to 147 but that's only b/c he was fighting a taller man with better boxing skills at a weight where he couldn't be the bully!

At 140 he's the bigger man and it's where he's comfortable. That doesn't mean he's at his natrual wieght at 140....that just means it's the weight where he can get the most out of his style and attributes such as POWER and SIZE.

Floyd isn't a 154 pound fighter...he's just not...Floyd looks good at any weight...that's b/c of his untatural talent and abundance of skill...somethig Hatton lacks...so when he moves up he looses his advantages while Floyd carries his.

But you can tell Floyd looses power everytime he moves up. At 147 his power wasn't as clear as it was at 140. And at 135 before all his hand troubles he was Knocking people out left and right. Class dismissed.:yep

 

What a stupid thread

 

regardless of size hatton is stronger so any size advantage is neutralized straight away,if you want proof hes stronger just watch their fights,when did floyd ever physically bully or shove anyone around the ring,hatton will be in the best shape of his life bcoz he knows what hes up against,i see hatton wearin floyd down 4 a late stoppage or points win

 

Hatton has a stocky build, Floyd's build is thinner, while he's taller and lankier.

I really don't think there's much of a difference in size. Apparently, neither does Ray Hatton, which is why Ricky is fighting Floyd. Ray say he wouldn't want Ricky to fight a lot of the welterweights out there, but he doesn't mind Ricky fighting Floyd because they're very close in size.

 

Why in the bloody hell would Floyd ever want to do that? This is like saying Jones wasn't technically sound because he dropped his hands. Floyd doesn't need to fight like a mawler/brawler, but that doesn't by any means indicate that he isn't strong enough.....just like Jones was so physically gifted he could stray from the "perfect and proper" boxing principles at times, that doesn't mean he didn't have the technique.

I actually think Floyd is the bigger and stronger man than Hatton.

 

i see what youre sayin,i disagree,but i see your point

 

Close....Ray has no problems letting Ricky take this fight b/c he KNOWS ricky will have the size and strength advantage.

Other 147 pound fighters with GOOD Skills and slick style he avoids b/c they are around Hatton's size NATRUALLY or hatton is bigger.

 

Fair enough :good

 

i gurantee you any analysis will say Hatton is the bigger man.....factoring reach is the dumbest shyt i have ever heard....now height maybe but reach get the fukk outta here!

How in the hell can you say a man who starts at 130 be the bigger man just because his SKILL level allows him to fight at higher weights....Hatton being stocky and short doesnt hinder him its his skills which hinder him.

 

Quit reading my mind boy.

 

Hatton looked like **** because Collazo beat that ass...and PBF looked good at 154 because he's a MUCH better fighter than Hatton...
