    People mention, Castillo, look at the second fight between the two, Mayweather easily outboxed him for a wide decision. Mayweather doesnt do just enough to win, he dominates solid boxers. i figure Hattons only chance is a KO, but hes not really a puncher, more of a grinder, and i doubt he'll land enough to break Floyd, but should be a good fight non the less.

    Chop Chop rocked Mayweather, and he shook it off. Corleys not a great finisher will probably be the reply, but im just saying, ive seen him hurt once, and he shook it off. And the only time hes been down EVER was when he hurt his hand.

    I think the ref will be a determining factor in this fight. If he allows them to fight out of a clinch and doesn't separate them every 10 seconds....then we will have a good battle.

    I'd like to see Hatton hurt PBF to the extent that it wakes him up and then we may see PBF at his fighting best. PBF has become a boring boxer to watch, while Hatton is exciting, because you know he will give of his best.

    Either way, it will certainly be watched by many millions and will give both a decent payday.

    Personally, I'd love to see Hatton give him a hiding. He needs one! But, if PBF comes into the ring and fights like he fought Gatti....then Hatton is in trouble!
    Regardless of the fact that Gatti was over the hill, or that DLH was as well!

    IMO PBF only responded to Hatton's trash talking because fighting Hatton allows him to avoid both Cotto and Mosely; remember, Cotto -Mosely hadn't been made yet. Once again mayweather takes on the weaker fighter instead of fighting the best. I hope Ricky Hatton tears Floyd's ****ing head off, but I don't think he will. My heart is with Ricky Hatton, but reality says he only has a punchers chance, about 20%
