    I think the most important part Teddy makes is that Hatton comes in wide with his shots, and Floyd is the master of straight punches, and punching inside of wide punches. I think Hatton will get busted up badly in this fight and eventually get stopped on cuts. Floyd is not going to allow Hatton to flail on him while he tries to cover up. Hes going to have to nail him good and often as Hatton comes forward, to keep him off.
    Look for Hattons face to be mess by mid fight with the stoppage shortly after.

    Hid footwork netgates that thogh, as the position of his feet almost change mid shot. he's always moving and has quick hnds. He doesn't plant his feet square and hit he almost slides once the power comes up from his legs. He's also realy close when he throws the shots and has an underrated jab he doesnt normally bother using (that he will ned to this fight)

    He does come in squared up, and even though his body is pivoting, hes wide open for straight shots down the middle. Hes quick, but Floyd is quicker. Hattons speed is good enough to allow him to get away with that flaw with most boxers, but not with Floyd. Its a flaw, but one only a super fast technician can take advantage of, and you will see it in this fight.

    Atlas's prediction is a key reason why I think Hatton has a great chance.
