Historical comparisons for Hatton - Mayweather?

Nah this is gonna be Tyson v Biggs lol !

Guess Leanard Duran is the best comparison but will it be 1 or 2 ?

 

Lamotta v Robinson.

 

Hatton is still a different class of fighter regardless. Particularly at the stage of their careers when they shall have fought Mayweather. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

 

It is obviously the sort of Brawl in Montreal revisited, the classical confrontation between the shorter pressure fighter/brawler and the taller slickster and Duran won that one.

 

seconded

 

I disagree: Floyd will quit LONG before the beating gets that hard.

 

at its best---leonard-duran
at its worst---calzaghe-lacy

 

Because Leonard fought with a stupid strategy (Duran seduced him into brawling)... Which is interestingly EXACTLY the strategy that Mayweather claims to want to use. Therefore, it's a great comparison: the slick boxer having his manhood threatened and thus being convinced of his need to brawl.

 

Holmes (PBF) - Cobb (RH)

 

:good


om a seperate point:
I really can't understand people who liken Hatton to Gatti, honsetly you must never have seen Hatton fight.

 

Duran vs. Leonard
Chavez vs. Whitaker

Both come to mind

 

Rocky Balboa vs Apollo Creed....similiar result!

 

Chavez-Taylor

 

leonard-duran

 

Duran - SRL
