Default Re: Is Hatton Underestimating PBFS Power`
Hatton lunges....Floyd is a sharp puncher that can get short hooks off in a blink. That is a recipe for a flash knockdown if anything. Floyd is going to time and catch hatton swinging and drop him like he did Chico. Hatton will get up fighting harder but get countered and tagged a whole lot. When Collazo did the simplest **** and just backed up as Hatton came in and countered him he had him knocked out on his feet for a whole half a round with Ricky HOLDING FOR DEAR LIFE. He barely finished the fight. If the ref would of warned for constant compulsive holding the fight would of ended with a TKO for Collazo.

One more time, go back to HBO Hatton's fights' comments and confirm from the same american commentators that call Mayweather "virtuoso" ( and that had Mayweather-Chavez even after 8 rounds) and check if the word "crowd" is not used for Hatton's offense. He does crowd, grab and pushes you cause he has the strength to do it - yes, he did grab Collazo's head and nailed him with the left in the opener but that's just part of the game - both you and me are not certain that Floyd can keep his balance cause Collazo is as big n strong as Floyd and Hatton doesn't get vulnerable to Mayweather's right counter if he gets first with his own volley. At the break, Floyd cannot punch him according to law.

Good arguement. I think Hatton has a chance to get a push knockdown like that early in the fight. But he will only get away with it once. But Hatton does not CROWD. He hooks underneath with his right arm every single time he gets close enough to do so. That is not crowding. Jesus Chavez crowded floyd he did not grab he got in with his defense and high guard and got in floyds chest and worked from there. Though the commentators are ****ing idiots and couldnt see that Floyd was doing the rope a dope. As soon as Chavez started to get tired after his barrage and started to drop his high guard just a little, Floyd teed off on him with power shots. Hattons guard is always low, but he is stronger and more physical then Chavez but will still wind up eating clean power shots while not landing clean effective shots. Floyd can avoid any of Hattons head punches with his eyes closed as Hatton throws his right hand the same way every time. Overhand right under left hook over and over and over. Floyds whole defensives style is to roll and avoid those shots which is why southpaws hit floyd more cleanly and often then any other fighter. Hatton is getting stopped in this fight by a barrage of right hands a la Ndou style.


(now Floyd did not get knocked down but he almost fell in round one...as hatton pushed and punched......:hey)

 

How did I not....

Default Re: Next up Mayweather vs Hatton
The facts about hatton pressure that are comedy. Hatton does not have an effective jab to disguise ANYTHING he is going to do. Floyd is going to know what punches he is going to throw before he throws them. Hatton has to bounce from side to side to get angles which takes more time then somebody LIKE CASTILLO with long arms that can get to the ribs by just a simple hook. Hatton has to move his whole body and that is the key to him not doing anything effective as floyd will see everything coming. Floyd is always alert and never lazy defensively even when the ref jumps in. Hatton caught Castillo out of position being lazy and not focused. Floyd will keep Hatton right in front of him where he is bullseye. Hattons feints are average and Floyd can time feints. If Hatton tries to get in floyds face or chest without just unloading everything he has got he is going to get picked apart. Floyd is the one that is going to be doing the body damage. He has more of an arsenal. He can throw left and right hooks and jabs and lead right hands to the body. Lets see how Hatton takes a body attack. Seems like he just jumps in the air and fakes low blows like he did in the Castillo and Urango more recent fights.

Default Re: Hatton v Mayweather - just my opinion
I am rooting for Floyd and I know Hatton fans are going to get excited early at Hattons activity but that wont last long at all and Floyd has a game plan and can execute it no matter what hatton does b/c as he said and what we all know Hatton is a smart, good, but very limited fighter. He has one way that is effective and no plan B. That one way usually gets the other fighter frustrated but Floyd knows what to do in a clinch or when somebody is trying to hug him. He is very effective at blocking sneak shots and actually getting off first which is his MO since day one. The hatton fight will be no different.
