    floyd didnt have to fight hattonøs game on the inside but he did it anyway.

    at least you say you're trying not to nuthug and i believe you, but i think if you put your allegiance aside you'll see that hatton did get schooled by floyd.

    I think the fight could go either way no way does Manny win this easy.

    i think he did have to fight hattons game on the inside, hatton closes the gap too quickly, he's quick on his feet. that's why mayweather put up one of his best performances because he was forced to fight.

    floyd has never been forced to fight to date - only judah pushed that button because he's the only fighter floyd's fought who has been fast enough to do it. castillo 1 also but for different reasons.

    hatton was never going to close the gap quickly or be "quick on his feet" to an effect that worried floyd.

    it's a big step up to fight a real boxer and nullify what he does best.

    there aren't many real boxers like floyd out there and regardless of what you think of his tactics when he's fighting, he's a master at what he does.

    i have more respect for hatton than any other british fighter in recent tme because of the resolve and determination he had to find out how good he was - with no excuses.

    but floyd dictated that fight and youi're giving hatton way too much credit if you think floyd had to adapt to anything.

    While I think they could beat Hatton, I was referring to those guys destroying Manny. I have re-read my post and it seems that this assertion is clearly made.

    ok understood, so you're saying pac beats hatton, but bradley, torres, holt and zab DESTROY pac and beat hatton.

    that's as bad if not worse.

    Yep, might be bad to you, but I don't look highly on Hatton and Pac is too small.

    Will be a superb fight, Hatton has the strength adavantage and he will have to use that so Pacman can't move around him with his speed, something Oscar didn't do. But I still fancy Pacquiao to win.
