    Hattons definitely got the hardest time to win out of the 3.

    Calzaghe is probs 70:30 to win, Haye about 60:40 and Hatton about 30:70

    • Hatton needs to lands something hard and early to win his fight. I think PBF can be caught early but not by Hatton. Floyd is smart (in the ring) and I see him boxing Ricky's ears off for the first 8 rounds or so. PBF doesn't have the power to really hurt Hatton though and I think Ricky can come back down the stretch and I see a tough finish in store. Prediction: Hatton loses on points fairly decisively after 12 but we'll all know he would have stopped Mayweather if they'd fought another few rounds.
    • Haye/Mormeck is fascinating. This is a massive test for Haye. He can potentially win this but lacks experience at this level. I fancied Haye (to beat Mormeck - I'm not achillesthegreat) a few weeks ago but now I think Mormeck might have too much know-how. I'll be right behind David Haye (again I'd like to reiterate, I'm not achillesthegreat) to win but see him out on his feet in the later rounds struggling to see the final bell. Prediction: Haye loses by close UD or MD
    • Calzaghe easily

    Mayweathers days as an undefeated pro are numbered.

    Hatton is the bigger, stronger man. He is just going to keep coming and masacring Floyds body. Come round 8 when Floyd is leading 5-3, he will be on the wrong side of a rising tide. Hatton will then look to punctuate his victory as he goes into gear 6 and becomes an unstoppable perpetual motion.

    Hatton is a tenacious, immovable object who will bulldoze Floyd.

    I definatley agree with that.

    Don't really know much about the guy Hayes fighting, hopefully he KOs him. Calzaghe will win and Hatton pulls an upset

    i wish people would stop using collazo as an example of rickys flaws.
    quite simply ricky has looked **** against every southpaw he has fought. against the orthodox boys he is a totally different fighter.

    btw i believe floyd will play to this and switch a lot in this fight.

    Well what other example can we use?

    Hatton looks bad against slicksters not just southpaws.

    You could similarly say Floyd has looked bad against brawlers - Castillo, DLH, even Augustus and Chavez.

    I disagree on both counts though.

    There has been times when Floyd has exclusively fought out of southpaw. He does it ALOT!
