As the question is formed... "Will he "box" the ENTIRE night?" Running is a very lame term to use by the way. He'll mix it up with Hatton and give him different looks. He won't go toe-to-toe the whole evening, nor will he box the whole evening. So the answer is no. Hatton has his hands full and I don't think he understands what kind of fighter he is dealing with yet. Apparently, neither do most of Hatton's fans and the Floyd detractors. I expect to see dead silence and the usual excuse/I hate Mayweather threads after another victory tonight. Different fight, same old story when it comes to Floyd. Just call him Floyd "Easy Money" Mayweather if you're a betting man.
From what I have realised thus far, Floyd has no benefit of making it a "toe to toe" battle b.c. even if he's already used to deal with the pressure style, he doesn't really know what this particular guy can do if he is given a chance to land. Actually, he can make a pretty good idea by Hatton's last fight and that is good enough argument to fairly predict that Floyd will try to be landing from the distance where Hatton can not hit back and since Ricky will be moving forward, Floyd can only move backwards or sideways... Actually, Floyd will win this fight cause he can land pretty effectively on retreating motion.
