Hatton's bodyshot on Castillo lands on Mayweather, what happens?

[Shotgun]

:d

[McGrain]

Mayweather is probably stopped.

Landing it would be tough though. But I will say this. I've always had Mayweather picked to retire Hatton as a top flight fighter - now I give him a small chance of pulling of an upset. I hope we get to see which it is.

[Antwuan Maxx]

Floyd obviously would feel it, but I don't think the results would have been as dramatic. Unless maybe, Hatton caught him in between breaths or something. Hatton landed a few devastating body shots on Maussa and Collazo that were crushing blows, but didn't have much effect.

[brooklyn1550]

He would be hurt, but not stopped. Any 140 pounder would be affected by that body shot - no questions about it.

[Jack]

Are we saying Floyd's ribs would be broke? If he ribs did break, he loses the fight easily.

Obviously we dn't know how his body would take the punch, but if he was seriously hurt like Castillo, he wouldn't win he fight.

[Fighting Weight]

Rickys alarm clock goes off, he gets up and has 4 pints of Guinness and double pie on toast for his breakfast, then goes on his morning run in preparation for his upcoming rematch with Eamonn Magee.

[Thor]

Floyd would be on a liver transplant list the following morning.

[TanstA]

the Floyd "Lord and Savior" Mayweather takes it and smiles reminded me when oscar was hitting him and floyd was smiling

yeah..... remember oscar going down by hopkins in the same fashion? so how can he do that to someone else? only cotto or hatton can make mayweather gasp for air.

[o_money]

I think a better question would be if ricky hatton punishes floyds body the way he did castillo's and then lands a left hook like that what happens.


It was the repeated blows that softened his kidneys up and set the stage for that prefect shot.

But it will never land. Because the only reason that it landed was because castillo was sooooo rusty that he thought it the shot was going to be a hook to the face. So he pivoted his shoulders to block it...which basically opened him right up for that shot.

Hatton might land shots on floyd like the ones before that one becaues floyd (like most detriote fighters) is volnerable to the body but the shot that ended it won't happen twice count on it.

[Executioner]

The last poll option is priceless

"high heel" :lol:

[codeman99998]

The truth is, Floyd has shown that he will continue to fight with a broken hand. He has never been seriously hurt to the head or the body. Anyone who says Floyd will quit or that Floyd has no heart is basing that opinion on nothing. The opposite is slightly more likely, but also impossible to tell.

Who is to say Floyd doesn't fight for 5 rounds with a broken rib? Or a broken jaw? Who really knows how much heart Floyd will show when he is hurt? I mean, would anyone have guessed Malignaggi would keep fighting like he did against Cotto?

[Knob McDude]

Didn't Floyd suffer a bad rib injury in the first Castillo fight?

Guess that answers your question.

did he? ON top of the hand injury (or shoulder injurry - can't remeber)?

[rodney]

Mayweather takes Hattons body shot no problems.
I saw the shot.
An arm punch/slap.
Besides Floyd Mayweather is in shape.
Despite his superior boxing skills, this guy trains hard.
He doesnt get tired.
He comes in prepared for whoever.
Floyd beat the one dimensional Hatton easily.
At welterweight or better, Hatton loses to the top 3 or 4.
Hatton-Castillo was not a very good fight.
Just 3-4 rounds of wrestling.

[El Bombasto]

I would not exect Hatton to connect like that on Floyd. Even against JLC that was a once in a lifetime shot. However, although he's not in the same league, Hatton stylisitically is a bad match-up for PBF

sorry you clear are a hater. The shot was abviously a good one. People around here are saying it broke two of his ribs. i don't konw where this infromation comes from but I wouldn't be suprized if it was true.


Hatton castillo was a good fight. anyone impartial person would a gree. Even though there was a lot of clincing the fight was not slow. There was always action surronding the clinchs. Do u call action boring?

[Carlos Primera]

floyd gets KO'ed if he took the exact same shot as castillo.

i think its the other way around

[o_money]

i think its the other way around
I disagree. And I'll tell anyone who will listen.

Slugger beats brawler.

Bawler beats boxer.

Boxer beats slugger.

Boxing's eternal circle of "bad style match-ups"

exactly! you nailed it on the freaking head!

[knockout]

Floyd will just take it and smlie,but if hatton lands more of them often he'll make that smlie upsidedown.

[brooklyn1550]

I saw the shot.
An arm punch/slap.


:patsch :lol:

[Longhhorn71]

Some of the greatest one-punch knockouts...even in Championship Fights,
have been via a body blow to the liver that the recepient never saw.

Take a look at the Jose Torres-Willie Pastrano Lt Heavywt. fight from the early 1960's and you see Pastrano on the ground for a couple of minutes.
Sports Illustrated quoted Pastrano as saying "I saw nothing but yellow spots
when I got hit.

I think "Pretty Boy" would be "Falling Floyd" (ala Patterson) if he got hit by Hatton's best.

[platnumpapi]

hit in hte liver hmm i dont know but if he get hit i think he will get up after like 8 or 9 and rd the rest of the around.then be ready for the next round fighting a safe fight and loseing rds because of his lack of punches thrown because hatton hurt him.see pbf wins the 1st 3 easy and then we are thinking shut out, then hattons a devastating punch in the 4th that drops pbf and makes him get the running.so after that pbf is fighting to survive until the pain goes away, hatton is non stop going crazy, the crowd is going crazy.manny and jim or sucking hattons balls.then by the 7th rd its all even pbf looking tired and slow and hatton ready for the kill getting stonger and stronger.then in round 7th, well im tired now tell you the rest later.

[Rock0052]

Landing it wouldn't be easy, but if it does land....that's the fight. I'm not underrating Floyd's toughness, but it's simple logic- if ribs get broken, there goes any mobility advantage he'd have even if he does beat the 10 count. Not to mention the chance that any further body punches could result in internal bleeding and real damage depending on what rib gets broken at what place.

It's not something someone can just shake off or fight around like a bad hand or shoulder.

[djrock247]

What would happen? The same thing that happens every time Floyd gets caught with a good shot. Oh, wait a minute...Floyd's never been caught with a good shot. Go figure?

[nervousxtian]

Hatton would never land that shot against Floyd. He should of never landed it against Castillo. Castillo was so far out of position that he was inviting Ricky to land that shot.. shit.. he turned his side too him.

[Cruiser1]

Moot point. Mayweather would never let Hatton land that punch. Mayweather would win a comfortable decision if he ever fought Hatton. Everytime Ricky would try and jump in on Floyd he would eat a sharp counter for his troubles. He couldn't get away with that shit against PBF. :bart

[PowerPuncher]

If Floyd had two broken ribs like Castillo? He's not getting up - or if he is, he's being KO'ed within the round.

Floyd fought with broken ribs in his first Castillo fight and won

[K0NPHL1C7]

One of, if not the best conditioned athleate in the world should surley be able to handle that pucnh. Castillo's heart wasn't in the fight, it was completley obvious. He could have gotten back up from that, he just didn't want it. Floyd would'nt have even gone down, he would've countered with a straight left and kept fighting off the ropes.

[jyuza]

Floyd fought with broken ribs in his first Castillo fight and won

Well, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.:good

[grayggr]

I voted Leonard Ellerbe runs in the ring and hits Hatton with his high heel and gets Floyd DQ'd, but really, the second option is most likely

I voted that too.

Although I do think that is genuinely the probable outcome. In fact it's a safe bet. You heard it here first.

:bbb:thumbsup

[Guru_Too_You]

When Castillo broke his ribs, Floyd fought on, and fought more courageously than he ever had before.

Oh yeah, he had a broken hand to.

Floyd will not be stopped by Hatton.

[Smokin'Joe100]

Mayweather is extremely good, but not unhittable. One lapse in concentration throughout the whole fight wih someone like hatton, and BAM the entire right sde of his rib cage will have been crushed.

[dwilson]

So if and it is a big if hatton managed to land a similar body shot to the one that dropped castillo and BROKE TWO OF HIS RIBS we are to beleive mayweather would just carry on regardless?

For me he would prob be stopped or at least find the remaining time very hard.
