    Exactly what these ****s don't understand is that PBF is a stylistic nightmare for Hatton. He's gonna **** Ricky up on Dec 8th. you can count on it.:yep

    No. Because like I said... this thread is not about betting odds.

    Oh no. Those what you say are considered, and cuts happen to play a major part in my 10% call now that you mentioned it... :lol:

    Ofcourse **** like you're saying happens... and I considered it.


    but if you and I were gambling buddies, and you had a history of coming through with the dough on your losses, I'd give you 5 to 1 for up to a $10k loss on my side.

    I think if you genuinely thing a certain percentage is correct then it should translate into the betting odds you'd be willing to wager or lay out.

    If people here really think Hatton has a less than 10% chance of winning then they should empty out their life savings and lump all their cash on Mayweather at 2/5 (or whatever).

    :lol:

    No **** it's fair, and it's 20%... :cool:

    but IN ACTUALITY, Hatton can only win maybe 1 out of 10 times... so in other words... I would get PAID.

    This percentage thread is about you using your personal knowledge of the combatants and applying it to assess this one on one matchup... or in some cases, displaying your bias (i.e. 70%).

    Yeah, if you think Hatton has 1 in 10 chance and you are offering 5/1, then you will think you're going to paid!!!!

    People who think this is a 1 in 10 fight should get their money on Mayweather at 2/5, you'll never make easier money....if you are correct.

    I think Hatton has a chance if he can't hurt PBF to the body. That would open things up, otherwise PBF will just stick the jab and move and counter. Hatton's a tough cookie, though. I'd give a 30% chance. I think Hatton will bleed in this one.

    70% is alot less idiotic than 0.5%.Differences in REAL world class levels are minute.If Mayweather wins here even though he is fighting at the advantaged weight and at home this will still be his biggest win ever.

    Hatton has the edge stylistically. Hatton's Achilles heel are southpaws, which Floydisn't. Mayweather, however, struggles with pressure and Hatton applies it better than anyone P4P.

    As someone who thinks Mayweather will stop Hatton, you probably shouldn't be talking about not understanding :good There is no logic in saying that feather fisted Floyd, who doesn't even attempt to KO his opponents now, is going to stop Hatton, who took clean shots from Tszyu. Glass jawed Judah wasn't ever seriously hurt by Mayweather.
