Hey guys, I'm interested in seing how many of you guys seem to think hatton will be the stronger guy inside the ring, you guys dont seem to understand that floyd as underated power, he wont be bullied like some may think he will, hes stronger then Hatton(I'm gonna get bashed for this one) hes now a full grown welter (not a big one) but hes a strong cat, some of u will say I'm crazy but he dont need to use that strengh cause he fight with another game plan, dont get me wrong ppl, he was against a stronger guy against ODLH, but ODLH is a lot stronger then Hatton, and even being stronger then floyd, he couldnt bully him(here again, I'm not saying DLH is better at bullying opponents)
Some of u also seem to forget that Hatton will come in at junior welterweight(140 pounds) while Floyd will proly be around 149 on fight night, Hatton is 5f6 and floyd is 5f8 Hatton will press the action but if he ties Floyd up, Floyd will be able to make Hatton Tire faster using his own strengh...
I dont think Hatton will be able to brutalize floyd in anyway in this fight:huh

I think there is some truth in what you say. Berore this fight Mayweather had somewhat passed me by. I have now looked at some of his more recent fights and he is strong and comes forward more that people say. I do not expect him to run as much as many think.
However neither I do not think for a second that Hatton is coming in at 140. I read that but I take it with a pinch of salt. I sense a bit of a war here.

When they do the unofficial weigh-ins on fight night, expect Hatton and Mayweather to be very close in weight.

If they do the unofficial weigh-in, I expect them to be very close. Maybe a pound or two either way.
It won't be a large difference, like Gatti-Patterson or Mayweather-Baldomir (and probably PBF-DLH as well).

For Hatton to say that he will come in at 140 is pointless. He always fights way up on that weight and only makes 140 due to dehydrating. For this fight he need not worry about dehydrating and instead will weigh-in at his natural figthing weight (or at least a lot a closer to it) and then possibly put on a few extra pounds.

Hatton is a lot physically stronger than Floyd IMO.
That may be but he sure looked like crap the last time he fought at 147..Better yet Collazo looked stronger than him during the fight .

Hatton is not going to weigh in at 140lbs. There's no way he is going to drain himself when he doesn't need to. If he goes to 142lbs or whatever, sure, but I don't see him going to 140lbs.
No way Floyd is a full grown welter, not even close. The man weighs in at 147 come fight time. Hatton is a natural 140 lber, Floyd a natural 135 lber. Floyd moved up first, but imo Hatton will still have a slight strength advantage...though as I've said before, physically they will be close to even, due to Floyd's height and reach advantages countering Hatton's weight/strength.

I think PBF will be slightly stronger. He has alot of strength in his calfs and legs. I have seen him push back alot of fighters in clinches. But if his strength becomes a factor, that means Hatton is in close right?

Floyd might be two inches taller, but HE DAMN SURE ISNT STRONGER!!! Despite the PBF fans and their SUPERNATURAL FANTASIES. That's a :lol: by suggestion!!!
There's been a few suggesting PBF will "show his strength" and be physical, I say......THAT'S A FANTASTIC IDEA:yep :yep :yep
The inside is the entirely wrong place to be for Floyd, but I'd love to see PBF prove that wrong:good

He has held his own in clinches with DLH and other fighters. I have never seen him shoved around except by Castillo, but that was PBF's first fight at 135.
He doesn't need to be on the inside, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have strength. There has been nothing to suggest that PBF is a weak fighter. I think because he is a slick fighter people assume he is weak and doesn't have a good chin. His chin is solid, and he seems strong.

Hatton will have more time to settle into being 147. I agree with earlier comments saying that Mayweather and Hatton will be close with regards to weight. I also think Hatton will be stronger in the clinch, which he will need to be or he will get pummeled

Hatton has powerful legs and that his all he has on mayweather. Mayweather is strong all the way around and is most definitely strong up top. Hatton is strong at holding and pushing guys back with his leg strength. He wont be able to use his leg strength with floyd b/c floyd will have him moving alot more then he as ever had to. It aint going to be like he can clinch floyd whenever he wants. Floyd has more stamina in the type of fight that it would be. B/c FLoyd can use the ring all night and still have energy left. Hatton never had to use his legs like he would have to with floyd. DONT FORGET I SAID THIS. DONT BE SURPRISED IF HATTON LOSES STEAM IN THE MIDDLE TO LATE ROUNDS>
Theyll both weigh in at about 150 on fight night.

I didnt say PBF was weak:nono I said, he isnt stronger than Hatton. You saw JLC push PBF back, what did Hatton do to JLC??? How about Tszyu?? A guy who had very good strength and a strong bench for a boxer. Hatton is physically strong and PBF isnt a big WW. Hatton is the stronger fighter and there's no doubt in my mind what so ever, that when they do come to a clinch?? Hatton will do the pushing.
Now strength itself isnt a be all by any means. Leverage, positioning, and angles are very important in overcoming such a disadvantage. If PBF is gonna win?? He's gonna have to outbox and out skill Hatton. If he wants to prove something on the inside?? I'll be a happy, happy guy DEC 8:good

Hatton wont get anything done on the inside a bunch of missed punches with his short little arms. Floyd can get out of his range too easy and back in FLoyd will take it to the inside after making hatton tired from coming after him eating right hands for 6-7 rounds then the fun begins. Give me a break Hatton is outskilled and outmatched it is not even funny. On second thought, yeah it is to see you same guys posting all kinds of excuses after the fight. But it aint until christmas time and it is still hot as shit. I dont even want to talk about this one until about 2 weeks before. ...DOOMSDAY for the hopeless guys that think hattons pressure will be effective on Floyd...Hatton never had to actually pursue and opponent. Nobody ever moved away from Hatton. They came right at him. :admin

You have been steady in you're assesment, but?? Dont forget that DLH was able to push and get Floyd against the ropes. ALL he had was BS pitty, pat, body slaps behind it. That wont be the case with Hatton:good
As far as stamina?? I didnt see anything exceptional against DLH in that regard either. DLH is always known to gas late and it seriously impacted the pts in that decision. Now PBF has generally had good stamina but his work rate and out put has decreased in his last few fights, so I'm not willing TO ASSUME stamina is in his favor in this fight.
Hatton went 11 tough physical rounds against Tszyu who was a very physically strong boxer and still had plenty left. I see a very close fight going right down to the wire here, and PBF better have more than he did vs DLH or?? He might take his first OFFICIAL L.

I whole heartedly disagree. Hatton took breaks against tsyu as he does with Urango Collazo or anybody else. Hatton never had to work hard to cut the ring off and then he aint going to keep Floyd in one spot then he got to use all this energy coming in again. B/c if hatton lets up the pressure floyd is going to box the shit out of him. Hatton cant keep up with Floyd like he did with the TIRED ass TSYU that was gased with his hands low at round 8. ODH left hook to anywhere is more powerful then anything hatton throws. The shots were not all slapping. ODH hit floyd with some big shots that Hatton does not have half the power of ODH. The key reason hatton is going to get brutalized is the way he pushes forward. That by no way will work on Floyd. Gloves low like gatti. Relying on head feints like gatti. And key point. Hatton dont tuck his chin He is short but he is str8 up and down coming in, he dont crouch get under punches or nothing just comes at you face first and clinches. It will look like the corrales fight early hatton getting countered chasing floyd around although floyd is not as fast anymore. But he dont need to be.

ALl I can say to you? Is you have you're story and stick to it!!
It's a tad strange though, from my perspective since PBF has had less than stellar performances against Baldomir and DLH. You act as if PBF is superman who wins efforlessly and hasnt been pushed by guy's like DLH and Castillo.
BTW, those "short arms"? They are the advantage on the inside and deliver POWERFUL body shots. If Castillo hurt Floyd's ribs?? Dont be so sure that Hatton will be totally ineffective.
Finally?? I wont make any excuses after the fight, I NEVER DO!!! I've said PBF is the favorite and could use his skils to take a decision. What I dont see by any means?? Is the EASE with which you believe such a victory will come. If PBF wins?? I'll give him due credit and it will be the BEST WIN HE'S EVER HAD!!! I also hope that it's the beginning of righting wrong's and soldifying his legacy at 47. The winner of SSM vs Cotto, and Paul Williams await:good

DLH had the more powerful LH upstairs, that's it!! You are going waaaayyyyy overboard if you believe that DLH has even half the power or quality body attack:nono :nono
Again, you're assesment is BIASED towards Floyd and you dismiss hatton's abilities outright. Hatton is no Gatti or Chico, he's far better in damn near every way.
Like I said, Floyds the favorite, but it's not anywhere near as easy as you think it will be. Hatton will push Floyd more than ANY MAN hasyet:good

Hatton didn't push JLC around. He was simply a better fighter. And PBF was coming up from 130. PBF is coming up anymore and is a larger man now than he was when he fought JLC, who was about the same size then as PBF is now.
I am not saying you said he was weak, I am saying he isn't weak and that I don't think that Hatton will be able to push him around. And DLH was much bigger than either of these men, so he isn't a good example IMO.

For all the criticism hatton recieved for "wrestling and holding" against Tszyu, I have to respectfully disagree. Hell PBF even said it was like watching the WWF. Hatton was physically stronger and was able to control the action and beat a very good champion.
Again, I firmly believe that Hatton is the stronger fighter and PBF will not push Hatton back or control the inside. I welcome him to try, though:good

In all honesty, I have only seen 3 KT fights, so I have no idea how strong he is to compare him. PBF seems to hold his own, especially with his illegal elbow to the chin tactic. This fight could get real dirty real quick, since Hatton is liable to grab and push and PBF has been known to clock fighters right after breaks and before breaks.

Yeah, but he was fighting Collazo, a fighter with a style that is all wrong for Hatton and he's also a natural welterweight, a very big one at that too.
Where is all this misinformation about Collazo being this massive welter? He's 5'f-ing9" (generously)! He's fought at 147 most of his career, but he's not one of the really big guys at 147 like De La Hoya was or Margarito.
I give you that his style was all wrong for Hatton: fast hands and accurate combination punching. If he had any ring smarts, he would have stopped Hatton. He would be schooling Hatton and then just stop, wave him in, and trade on the inside. I think he was trying to show Hatton he could compete at his own game, which is fine ONCE. He kept doing it and gave Hatton the chance to win.

Hatton is stronger....but that doesn't matter if you don't engage in a contest of strength with him.
Besides PBF is no slouch when it comes to physical strength, that's part of what makes him a special boxer.....much in the same way it made Pernell special.
You can't bully either of them around.
I think Floyd is stronger and has more power than people give him credit for. Very few boxers actually physically push him around, and plenty have tried. Also he usually gets respect from his power. That was the one thing that I respected Baldomir for. He was able to eat that right hand all night long with no apparent effects. Floyd's right hand got Oscar to stop throwing the jab. If there wasn't any pop in it, then Oscar would have won the fight.
He dropped Sharmba with a single body shot in his first foray into welter, too. Sharmba was washed up, but that still showed power. Williams took more effort to stop an even more worn version of Sharmba.

Do you just look at height?
Collazo is a strong guy that you will see fighting at 154lb in the not too distant future.
HEIGHT DOES NOT DETERMINE STRENGTH!
Otherwise Shane I guess wouldn't be strong and he is known for his strength.
Yeah, size is more than height but I wouldn't consider him an overall big strong guy, either. People keep saying it, but I don't see it. He looked strong against Hatton. That's all I can really agree with.
Collazo may be a bit bulky in the frame, but your perfect example of Mosley shows that your frame doesn't determine your strength. Mosley packs a TON of muscle on his slight frame. Collazo has what I would call a medium frame and doesn't pack much strength on it.... just my opinion. I just don't see the strength outside of him fighting Hatton. I don't think he looked really strong in his win over Rivera.
Didn't you know? "Mayweather" (can't handle pressure) and Hatton is "Mr pressure" :lol:
Really?!?! 38 have tried the pressure game and 38 have failed , 24 of the 38 have been koed .

Ain't no way Mayweather is stronger lower body than Hatton not even close.Hatton has spent years playing football(soccer) and used to kickbox,Mayweather gets his power from leverage and core strength.Mayweather has the north American disease of having skinny ass legs and only looking muscular upper body.

Some of u also seem to forget that Hatton will come in at junior welterweight(140 pounds) while Floyd will proly be around 149 on fight night, Hatton is 5f6 and floyd is 5f8 Hatton will press the action but if he ties Floyd up, Floyd will be able to make Hatton Tire faster using his own strengh...
I dont think Hatton will be able to brutalize floyd in anyway in this fight:huh

Floyd has stronger legs then the usual american fighter. His calves are strong but Hattons main and damn near only superior strength is his legs and that works well against guys that try to push him back. Mayweather has a very strong build and even more so in the part of taking punches to the arms and body. The dude is so in shape. He stays at the same weight all the time. Kind of like bhop. You wil be suprised that hattons punching power will not hurt Floyd anymore then anyone else. He got tagged by harder hitters. :-(:-(

Don't take my comments to disparagingly,it is a generalisation but like all generalisations it does have a ring of truth about it.America is a basketball playing country so will always have more upper body conditioning in their kids growing up whilst Soccer players have much stronger lower body development.Forget about Gridiron,those players are like 70lbs heavier and big all over,you get a gridiron player around the same weight as a soccer player I promise you ,no comparision.As for Floyd having strong legs forget about it I'm talking bout thighs and gluteus muscles not calfs,you don't get raw power and stength from calfs,just my opinion tho.

There are many football players the same size as Soccer players and their legs are developed fine. We do play Futbol in this country you know, I have seen them before lol. On top of this, many basketball players have much greater lower body strength than upper body. Where do you think the explosive jumping comes from? Not to mention, they run for 35 mins a game.

ever heard about a low centre of gravity ?
Shorter and same sort of weight should be stronger in clinches look at mike tyson against tall guys or any other short stocky fighter, or rugby player or football player or anyone.
If it comes down to strength mayweather will be to close to ricky he needs to keep it at range.
Otherwise he may find his ribs getting a bit sore after a few rounds, but as we know mayweather will have on a pair of nike air max the whole fight and look like he is training for the new york matrathon.
If he has any sense anyway.
At distance mayweather wins if it gets close he is in a whole heap of shit, how many body punches will it take before mayweather starts to slow down ????

Hatton is a bit of an animal- if Floyd gets dirty then he's in trouble

Seriously they must be hanging off mayweathers left nut sorry i feel it coming again
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :rofl
ever heard about a low centre of gravity ?
Shorter and same sort of weight should be stronger in clinches look at mike tyson against tall guys or any other short stocky fighter, or rugby player or football player or anyone.
If it comes down to strength mayweather will be to close to ricky he needs to keep it at range.
Otherwise he may find his ribs getting a bit sore after a few rounds, but as we know mayweather will have on a pair of nike air max the whole fight and look like he is training for the new york matrathon.
If he has any sense anyway.
At distance mayweather wins if it gets close he is in a whole heap of shit, how many body punches will it take before mayweather starts to slow down ????
Just like Collazo had to run from the power punching hatton...lol. Mayweather is as equally as tough as him. Mayweather despite what you guys love to say is actually a tough guy. It aint like if you hit him with a good shot he is going to run and cry. He is going to hit you back. Like I said floyd has been in and hit by bigger punchers then hatton. More accurate non-lunging ones at that.:scaredas::scaredas::scaredas:

Didn't you know? "Mayweather" (can't handle pressure) and Hatton is "Mr pressure" :lol:
Are you basing this off the first Castillo fight :-( You will learn just like the other fools who think Hatton will overwhelm Mayweather.
