Hattons trainer makes confident comments

HAT just Koed one of them ! the same one that made PBF look like **** ! :deal

 

Well, he is Hatton's TRAINER

 

so your not as bright as I thought you were !:bbb

 

No, I wont stop. The truth is Collazo is a conservitave puncher, NO power. He is big but does not fight big at all. He looks to counter. He has a good guard. The only quote slick fighter hatton has ever fought and as Paulie M said. He exposed hatton. I aint the only one saying this. I been said Hatton would get beat by a slick boxer. Thats why he stayed clear of them.

 

How did castillo apply pressure..lol let me guess he came in bouncing in and out..no....floyd was injured that fight. If you watched the fight they were focusing on floyds left shoulder from round 1 and 2 when floyd was winning easy. Castillo fights in a crouch that is why floyd had problems.. He crouches nd comes up with hooks. If you ever seen a castillo fight you would know this. Hatton comes str8 in. His chin is right there. There is nothing to avoid pot shots. Floyd will have him looking stupid in the ring.

 

So hatton was having an easy time with CALLAZO until the second half of the fight ! And that because CALLAZO was the first fight in the larger weight class ! :deal

 

My only concern with this post is that Hatton faded down the strech against urango as well. So I'm a little hesitent to put it down to the wieght class as it might be an imerging trend in hatton's career. Remeber he's been a boozer and a brawler most of his career and he's not getting any younger. He might not be able to go like he used to. But there is logic in your reason.

Like so many things in boxing we won't know until we know.

 

:good good points !

 

Do you seriously not understand the differences between fighting southpaw's and orthodox???:huh It's a different experience and when it's a slick southpaw?? Its even that much more difficult. You can keep saying it, if you like, but you make a fool of yourself by doing so. Not to mention Collazo has a more physical inside game and is stronger physically than Floyd. That matchup HAS NO BEARING ON WHAT HAPPENS BETWEEN PBF and Hatton. PBF is smaller physically, not as strong, and orthodox. Now some fighters have success against lefty's ala Tszyu and Cotto and some have trouble, it depends on the fighter, and BTW Cotto's a natural lefty himself.

As for PM? He'll say anything to get a fight with Hatton, it's a big fight and opportunity for him. Too bad, Mayweather beat him to it. I respect Paulie and his heart, toughness, and skill, but he's essentially a 1 handed fighter and will have trouble with tough elite guy's because his right hand cant crack an egg. He'll be competitive even without it and its a tribute to his skill. Hopefully, paulie gets a shot with Reese, Torres, or the Witter vs Harris winner and adds another belt to his waist and continues to push himself up the line for another MAJOR FIGHT.

 

As much as I want Hatton to win, I just can`t see it.

 

Hatton thought he could take out Collazo after the knockdown- it reminded me of Pac/Marquez. Both ran out of energy and barely got the decisions. It was an important lesson for Hatton- he now has one of the best dietitions working in his camp, little or no layoff from his last fight, whereas Floyd may be a little rusty.
I think Ricky is a lot more astute than people here think- he will be very aggressive on the night. Look at the fights where english fighters were give little chance- Benn is a classic example. I don't think he was given much of a chance against most of his american opponents..aggression was the key- PBF won't like it one bit!!!

 

yes but benn is one of the hardest hitting middleweights/smw of all time, the same can not be said for hatton in his division.

 

Mayweather may be an arrogant ***** that belittles his opponents, but you can never accuse him of underestimating his opponents and underpreparing. I think PBF will have Hatton's style all worked out and win a relatively comfortable UD.

er..you are kidding right?

 

If you actually stop being a tit like Toopretty & look at the fight from a "fighting" perspective & not a haters then its obvious that it will be Floyds toughest challenge to date..................Im not naive enough to say Hatton smashes him or equally something as ******ed as "Floyd wins easily".............Ricky will apply his brawling smothering approach hoping to walk through PBF's shots in the process which he did to good effect against KT(old or not he could still hit for ****s sake !!!!!!)..............However PBF is technically the best boxer of our era....If he can keep Hatton of he'll outpoint him..........The question is if...????...............As for using the Collazo fight as a point of reference for Hatton v Floyd..........Thats just ****ing dull.......A big awkward southy ........ A move up a weight..........Not enough time to condition properly...........Jesus it couldnt have been a more horrible first scrap at 147 if they'd tried !!!!...............Oh & he won ya ****in idiots !!!!!!!........Im just looking forward to the fight which is shaping up to be a beauty................May the best man win......
