    No no no, Im not a Hatton hater, as a matter of fact i was rooting for the englishman. But I am a truthful person, and know Floyd is way superior than Hatton is in that ring. Bring the fight to 140, floyd will just outbox and outsmart hatton to an easy decision. basicly tag and play keep away

    You have come to the most pro- Mayrunner site on the web for my friend!

    Sweet Science and Yahoo have had polls that had it at about 50/50 with 50,000+ votes so that appears to be your true answer.

    No. Hatton simply isn't on Mayweather's level.

    Is this a joke? Please say it is!!! Hatton is perhaps the most, if not top 3, overated champions of the last 5 years or so.

    Hatton was probably the least talented champion of any division. He has 1 defense, and a terrible offense that consist of lunging in with a hook, then holding. If he is not holding, he is simply smothering his punches. Any B class fighter or above makes hatton look below average in the ring.

    hatton made his name KO"s english cab drivers and a washed up Kosta and Castillo. Besides them, he hasnt beaten anyone noticeable.

    To to answer your question, Hatton stands no chance at all against Floyd at any weight with any ref.

    Yeah, the biased ref had a whole lot to do with Hatton telegraphing and leaping with his hooks on multiple occasions. :lol:
