Should Mayweather defeat Hatton

I for one won't be suprised because I'm predicting that he'll win via UD . . . but I still hate his behaviour out of the ring.

 

Hello Walk With Me. I appreciate your candor. I sure hope you are wrong about Floyd Vs. Cotto. If that fight is there and Floyd backs out, he will have a tainted legacy. When you talk like Floyd, you gotta back it up. That's how Ali did it. Lots of talk but he sure walked the walk.

 

Depends on how the fight is won,if its a shut out i wound'nt be surprised.

 

It's not really about what he wants. Of course he wants easy fights -- who doesn't? To secure his right to call himself the very best in the world it's about legitimately and convincingly beating ALL of the very best players in the game. Which he hasn't done yet. This is why people have a problem with him. To say he's better and more skilled than SRR or Ali, etc, that's a HUGE claim which we have no real reason to believe he's backed up yet.

Good luck to him. I genuinely dislike his personality, if that's really how he acts off-screen, and I don't think he deserves so much attention as he gets. Self-belief is a good thing, but he is caught up in his own hype -you could say he has his head very firmly stuck inside his own ass- and he is attempting to catch everyone else up in it by using the old Ali "I am the greatest" technique. It's old. It's tired. It's obnoxious. But as sthomas said two posts up, Ali walked the walk.

If he can prove himself by beating the very best, then I for one will give him his dues. Until that day, he should just let his hands do the talking. Everything beyond that is HYPE which Team Mayweather wants you to believe. If you relentlessly tell somebody something, eventually they may become convinced what you're saying is true. I don't like that. It makes us all out to be gullible fools.
