Will Mayweather-Hatton disappoint like Mayweather-DLH did?

    Not that Mayweather-DLH was such a bad fight, just that it was not even close to living up to its hype. Hatton is more of a pressure fighter than a boxer that DLH is, so maybe it will be more of a fight.

    I'M not disputing Floyds array of boxing skills all I want is Hatton [for as long as he can-- to try to keep the pressure on]:bbb to be able to force Floyd to display his class because he 'has' to and not just because he wants to --this will make for a good fight------

    sounds like you got issues.


    why do you have a picture of floyd smiling as your avatar? shouldn't you have a picture of him beating someone or something?

    thats just gay.

    Hatton hasn't got the style to look un-interesting, and he has always risen to the occasion so far.

    Since Hatton doesn't tire as quickly as DLH and is much more aggressive, NO. In Floyd's dreams, Hatton is as passive as DLH was; in reality, it's going to be more along the lines of Floyd's first fight with Castillo (except Hatton is more aggressive and stronger than Castillo).

    FFS...with the superbly produced HBO 24/7 series and its awesome music and pounding percussion....how can the fight possibly be as good as the hype?
    Geaux Floyd!

    It won't be a stinker. A stinker is a Williamson-Byrd caliber of fight. But it won't live up to it's hype. Mayweather fights rarely ever do.

    :lol: :lol:

    so what if ricky is well-conditioned and aggressive? he has nowhere near the same skills in terms of footwork....floyd will be able to dance around him, creating angles....he's not just gonna back up as hatton charges straight ahead.

    I say great fight because hatton is explosive and mayweather will be on his toes the whole fight, he will never be able to mess around, pot-shotting....you will truly see each man's skills for what they are.

    Mayweather-De la Hoya was fine. I enjoyed that fight.

    Mayweather-Hatton will be good.
