if hatton was a natural WW

If definitely wouldn't hurt

 

:good

 

No because Floyd ain't even a natural WW. He's just that damn good.

 

mayweather isnt even a natural junior welterweight how can he have a advantage

 

good point

 

Indeed. It baffles me how people think that Floyd is the bigger man in this fight. He weighs less on fight night for a 154 pound fight than hatton does for 140 pound fight. Just 2 years ago people were saying that Floyd is not a natural 147 pounder and all of a sudden he's bigger than hatton just because he didn't get ***** slapped when he moved up in weight.

Hell in one Hatton intreview hatton said that after standing next to Floyd he could see that he was physically larger and that he didn't think that Floyd could offer anything to hold him off. Hatton is and always has been the larger man. The fact that Floyd can beat bigger guys with great ease does not change that.

 

I agree with Mac. Hatton still loses.

Did you think ODH was going to win the fight against Mayweather? If not - how could you think Hatton being a Natural WW would make a difference. He still gets his ass kicked.

 

If he was a natural heavyweight he'd do even better. Why ask this question?

 

Ok - I would have to agree some - that if all disadvantages were removed - except for speed - then the fight would be closer. However - Mayweather still wins. Hatton just doesn't get his ass kicked as bad. :bbb

 

They're not objective disadvantages. They're only disadvantages inasmuch as the person doesn't know how to work with what he has. Tyson was a "short" Heavyweight who knocked the **** out of everyone in his prime.

 

It's a moot point. You're asking what would happen if he was born differently. If he was a natural Welterweight, he never would have fought at Junior Welterweight and would never have been the top man at 140lbs. What if Sonny Liston was able to make the Lightweight limit and carried his power down with him?
