    Oscar has been dropping in on Hatton, giving him tips on how to beat Mayweather.
    who won that fight again?

    Of course . . . Hatton is young and at his peak, more athletic than the De La Hoya who fought PBF.

    Hatton will bring in twice as much pressure and competition than what DLH brought in their fight . . . but still . . . I believe PBF wins this one.

    Hatton will cause more problems for Floyd. He is in his prime, brings more pressure that De La Hoya and hasn't tasted defeat yet. That will make him do everything possible not to get his first defeat.

    Lets face it JC and RJ should have happened 5 years ago

    Nasseem set us back a long way cos he couldnt box

    Hatton Well he's the enigma neverfought anyone except a shot castillo and a ww at 5 weeks notice- Mayweather is out of his league?

    Let me tell you this one will not go the distance - 5th or 6th round stoppage - Hatton wins!

    Its all about the eye of the tiger!

    Now wheres my avatar?

    Absolutely not. Oscar is technically superior boxer, harder hitting, better defence, and naturally bigger giving him a natural arsenal to apply pressure far better than Ricky could ever have. The only metric in which hatton beats DLH is stamina, but Mayweather beat DLH before he faded anyway. Watch round five. Hatton is a punching bag compared to DLH and with no defence or stiff jap, he will have nothing to protect him coming forward. Hatton will be knocked out in 5 or less.

    Nope, sorry. I am rooting for Hatton big time, but, PBF is too damn good. he is a defensive genius, covers his body very well, and slips punches like no other today.

    PBF is going to frustrate Hatton too much and just nail him with straight rights all night.

    Go Hatton though!

    Hatton isn't more live than Oscar. De la Hoya was a legit 155-160 pounder. He's much taller than Hatton with much better power. Hatton runs into a hornets nest in this fight. Sorry Hatton fans. I like the Mancunian a great deal but picks must be done with the head and not the heart. Mayweather wins inside the distance. :smoke:smoke

    I think Ricky's getting KO'd or TKO'd as well.

    Castillo did better than dlh did..people forget this.why? because DLH is not prime and he's a PART TIME FIGHTER for crying out loud.

    Hurrican Hatton doesn't stop coming at you and that is the difference between him and Oscar. He won't stop coming at Floyd rabbit and Floyd will do his usual punch and run strategy.
