    I was being sarcastic. Honestly though, physically he's no longer in his prime. He's still pretty close though. I think he's a smarter fighter than he was when he was younger, and untilizes his stengths more often. He should be able to handle Hatton, but the dancing does worry me.

    What a load of **** in here:rofl :rofl :rofl

    Funny, PBF fans swear he's God, the GOAT, better than SRR, SRL, etc. but he's past prime at age 30 with less than 40 fights:huh :huh :huh By those standards DLH was what "medieval aged"???


    Just setting up the excuses for losing:yep :yep :yep

    Excuses wont help...........:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


    IMO, Cotto by KO, Williams by OVERWHELMING Decision.

    Hope Hatton beats them 2 it:good

    He's about to be 31, so physically he's no longer in his prime. However, he hasn't been taken much punishment and he keeps himself in tremendous shape. As a result, his age really hasn't had much negative effect on his ablility to perform in the ring. Even at 31 he's still plenty good enough to beat Cotto. Wiliams has no business fighting at 147, that fight could be trouble.

    Dancing and boxing are not incompatible activities. The level of coordination and form required to dance that routine of quickstep certainly won't hurt his footwork once he steps in the ring with Hatton.

    That is the very reason why I think Floyd will stop hatton a few thread ago! However if he really tries to win the dancing contest. It will definitely hurt his training.

    At 140 he definitely have power and he continued to build his power to fight a 154lber. Stopping Hatton is a strong possibility.

    It has been proven time and time again that you can beat anyone with the right one punch.

    Ricky has some chance. Miguel has more. Neither on has very much chance.

    Floyd is still prime.
