    Hatton didn't want PBF at 140 back in 2005 after he beat Zoo he turned PBF down. I guess you don't remember that? I also guess you don't remember Hatton wining a title at 147? I also guess you don't remember Hatton saying 147 would be no problem because he wouldn't have to spend so much time at camp cutting weight? I guess you don't remember Hatton making no excuses about the loss? Typical PBF hater ignore facts at all cost to keep your agenda alive. Too bad for you there's people like me who watched boxing back then and knew what really happened and will call POS trolls like you out on lies.:hi:

    Hatton did indeed give Mayweather a far better fight than people give him credit for. I'm not fully expecting Pacquiao to smother Mayweather and be in his face the way Hatton did but he surely will use his speed to work his way to the inside. I'll honestly be shocked beyond belief if whoever wins this easily, this is going to be a tough close fight.

    I can tell now you don't know **** about boxing. JLC was light years better and more accomplished than Margo that can't be disputed. He was a pressure fighter but was an educated pressure fighter, unlike Margo who was uneducated. He had subtle defense used a jab cut the ring and got inside and went to the body. If you think Margo is better than JLC who was arguably the best LW of his era then I don't know what else to say. Margo was never the best of anything other than loading gloves and being Mosley's son.

    What Hatton and Maidana did was take away Floyd's space. When you take away his space and smother him, you trouble him and force him to make adjustments. Pacquiao doesn't fight like that, he boxes his opponents.

    I never said he would beat Floyd, but you underestimate him. Floyd is a decent enough puncher to deter pressure fighters, somewhat. Margo would have zero respect for his power and would be coming at Floyd and landing body shots non stop. Cotto applied pressure, but he tires, and he felt Floyd's shots.

    You do reliaze this fight was 8 years ago right?! Not coming at you sieways either b/c I see your point, but Money Mayweather is way smarter than when he was Pretty Boy Floyd.

    It wouldn't surprise me if this fight looks like the Guerrero fight, except Pac will have a bit more success than Robert but Floyd actually stops Manny in latter rounds. Again no prediction but I can see Mayweather stopping him via body shot.

    Margo had Pac on the ropes for 5 seconds and broke his rib. Margo would be a dangerous fight for Floyd. You have to fight Margo and make him shell up to win. Pac threw 1,000 punches and still couldn't put him down. Dude's scary. I still think Floyd could win, but it wouldn't be easy.

    no.. he is tailor made for floyd. floyd would simply tie him up at will in the very rare chance he got caught by such a slow moving fighter (remember this fight was back when floyd really had younger legs)

    it would literally be baldomir 2.0. you are right when you say margo would not even for a second be phased by anything floyd throws but do you think that would bother floyd who would be clowning him with target practice.

    kenny bayless hailed as one of if not the best ref in the game, refs mayweather fight and instantly becomes the most biased , paid off ref ? :-(

    but no one mentions the first fight where maidana got away with countless lowblows, dirty tactics (by both fighters) and maidana throwing muay thai knees?.. seriously if it was floyd and not agbeko in the fight against mares laurence cole would not even have half the bad rep he has today

    And on May vs Hatton... can Floyd still move the way he was able to against Hatton? I'm telling y'all, Floyd's legs are going to be a HUGE factor in this fight and where they stand is questionable.

    Nowhere near as bad as the bent referee ruined Tszyu-Hatton.
