    i meant to say MD - i think it will be alot like the first Castillo fight; very close but Hatton comes out on top by landing the higher volume of power punching.

    Hatton and Castillo are very different fighters and use very different forms of pressure. Castillo is very measured in his attack, and comes in defensively very sound. Thats what troubled Floyd the first time. He needs to have opportunites to counter, and Castillo wasn't providing him with that. Hatton will in contrast provide and abundance of opportunities. Hattons tenacity will in this fight play into Mayweathers hands, as he won't fight smart, and will look to just storm in behind his punches, which against the best in the business won't be good enough.

    Something tells me that nomination isn't going to get a lot of votes.... Well, except for Eels Rule and Shooters 5 other Aliases. In seriousness I reckon we should declare law of the jungle in the Aus forum, may the strongest survive... Moving threads is simply delaying the inevitable. Why not just run with it and see what happens?

    Mayweather.

    Hatton doesnt have world class skill, compared to PBF he is brutish hugger.

    II think Hatton will give Mayweather all he can handle. He'll make Floyd fight for the entire 3 mins of every round. It'll be a great fight. Still lean to Floyd, but it'll be a lot closer than the DLH fight.

    I disagree. I thought the Oscar fight was close due to Oscars effective pressure and combination punching. I don't rate Hatton as that good a combination puncher. Floyd is to smart to try to trade in close with him like KT did. He is one of the best movers in boxing. I am expecting it to go down like the Baldomir fight, but obviously a bit closer. Hatton doesn't posses the handspeed of Oscar either, which the other main factor in Oscar getting to floyd in the early rounds.

    One person here is a certifiable nutcase who operates about 5-6 different alias. Very strange. He also happens to be a Mundine Nuthugger of the worst kind. See if you can figure out who we are talking about. A couple of his alter egos where recently demolished, but certainly others will return.

    I always thought u can only have 1name in forums??

    I go on a rugbyleague forum and you can only have 1 also i play online poker and you can only have 1name there 2..

    Some1 with that many alias's and a mundine nuthugger...NUTCASE...

    Im a boxing fan in general,yeah have my favourites but i will always admit if they got dominated or are the underdogs in upcoming bouts.

    Im no 1eyed fan...

    Some posters on here would lick the sweaty balls of their favourite fighters,that on its own is extremely sad..

    P.S. OZTRIKER IS A ***....

    The difference is that Oscar faded at the end of the fight, like he always does. Hatton will still be right in front of Floyd at the end of the fight.

    One thing I also like is Hatton's body work. Floyd is ****ing hard to nail to the head, but Ricky loves to dig to the body, ask Castillo and his 3 broken ribs.

    **** I hope he wins, just to shut Floyd's mouth. Hatton is the consumate professional. I expect him to fight like a man possessed come Dec 8th.

    Fair enough. Will be a great fight either way, although I don't think it will be one for the casual fan. t will be pretty scrappy most probably. If Hatton can get inside and stay inside he can definitely win. Agree with your point that floyd is most hittable to the body, as his head and upper body movement is very quick.
