Hatton is going to get throughly thrashed, ending this....

[Amsterdam]

...'Hatton is one of the world's 10 best fighters non-sense'.

It'll be an impressive win for Floyd, just on the sheer domination of the beatdown that he's about to dish out, but the only issue I have with it is for the fact that it's a cherry-picked fight, which I have said since it was announced.

Thankfully, something good will finally be established, and the good will be that everyone will see that Hatton is nothing resembling one of boxing's true elite.

He's sloppy, squared up always, open always and lacks the outside skill to even press his way in. Coming in head first against a slick counter puncher while not using a jab or effective guard is just asking to get cut up to pieces, yet Hatton has no way to correct this because he is not skilled or talented enough to do so.

It's sickening that Hatton is considered a top 10 P4P fighter after what he's done since Tszyu, which by all means, was a win that merited a P4P ranking then, despite the fact that we were not dealing with a prime Tszyu and were dealing with the worst style for Tszyu possible, rough housing and smothering. The soviet-precision counter puncher style of Tszyu that is not backed up by a sound defence is horrible against rough housing and pressure.

Against Castillo last, he got the early KO, but he looked terribly sloppy and in round 3 Castillo even at his worst form yet was able to exploit some of those defensive flaws that Hatton has and landed some good shots, I couldn't help but think to myself - 'Wow, imagine if Castillo had the ability to slip Hatton's sloppy work and still had his prime timing, this wouldn't even be a content really'.

Does anybody think Hatton can beat any top 5 Welter? I think they all destroy him with ease.

Yet this is one of the world's best 10 fighters? Give me a break.

Mayweather TKO 9, and I cannot wait to see some of these ridiculous Hatton fans comments after Ricky can't even so much as win a round clearly. The two things that we already know are coming are -

'No big deal losing to the world's best'

- Certainly not Hatton fans, but getting totally thrashed uncompetitively like he's going to be is a clear statement.

Then they will of course be blown away by Floyd and comment accordingly, even though this is completely predictable and as clear as crystal what's going to happen as Hatton is not a good technical pressure fighter, but a rough housing swarmer tailor made for an effective slick counter puncher.

[GlassyEyes]

I really dont see Hatton as being a top 10 fighter. He's decent, thats all.

I dont expect a Hatton victory. But then again, this is boxing, and anything can happen.


And this was a cherry picked fight.

Mayweather, fight Cotto or Williams, or shut the fuck up. Ya know what I'm sayin?

[markbrooklyn]

Hattons fans will have excuses when he loses, The biggest excuse will be that he shouldn't have been fighting at 147 and that if they fought at 140 Hatton would win.. Theyll say he's a natural 140lber even though he walks around at 175lbs when not training

[GlassyEyes]

He is a natural 140 pounder.

[SKULLSPLITTER]

I've maintained that same opinion, Amsterdam. Hatton is not of "P4P boxer" ilk. The only reason he got there in the first place was through using an illegal fight plan in his hometown..

That style is his great equalizer...and when allowed...it's extremely effective.

So since it IS illegal to rush in to hold and hit over and over and over...it falls outside the realm of Boxing.

Meaning he didn't really "box" to beat Tszyu and receive that status in the first place.

If Hatton's not allowed to do his shit...he is liable to get OWNED by 5, 6, 7 guys around his weight...fighters that actually box according to the rules...the way you're supposed to...with their fists and defense only.

Generally, a truthful and good post:good

[Lance_Uppercut]

No we won't we will say well done to floyd and that floyd really is that good and take our hats off to him that's the difference between us and floyd fans

:deal

Thank god there are posters who have some semblance of intelligence. These Mayweather fags are an embarressment to this sport.

[K2ray]

No we won't we will say well done to floyd and that floyd really is that good and take our hats off to him that's the difference between us and floyd fans

Maybe some will, but I can just see alot (e.g. David UK), saying something like: (eventhough Mayweather won) nobody loves him (Mayweather), everyone loves Hatton, hope he dies (Mayweather), etc etc...

...I remember Frank Bruno's wife saying the same bullshit after he got smoked and no folks in Britain objected to it!:deal

[Lance_Uppercut]

i agree 100% with everything you say.. Hatton is the most over-rated fighter ive ever known and saturday night puts an end to all this bullsh*t his supporters spew-out about him
If Hatton is the most overrated fighter you have ever known, let me be the first to say, "WELCOME TO BOXING!!" :good

There are a few posters who know their shit, most most don't know shit. You decide who is who.:thumbsup

While Floyd is obviously the favorite? I just dont see the scales that uneven. Sure Floyd chose this match and is known for taking the lower road through most weight classes. But this isnt Arturo Gatti. While you didnt make that comparison? That was all I could think of reading you're sloppy, squared, head first, no jab/guard assesment. that sounded like Gatti. I saw Hatton get inside and dictate to Tszyu and Castillo. That version of Hatton is at least a wee:D bit better than ANY version of Arturo Gatti:yep

While Hatton has flaws and an apparent style disadvantage? I think that he can perform at or above the level that Castillo and DLH did. Based on those fights, I also understand that Floyd is the favorite.

The bottom line is this fight should have happened at 140. As far as Eite goes? Hatton was the Champ and floyd the Challenger so that puts him at the ELITE level. Floyd wanted 47 and got it. This was a NECESSARY opponent in legacy terms and there are Cotto and Williams remaining at 147.

In terms of percentages? PBF Close Decision is perhaps the most likely outcome. Yet, there's a reason they actually fight the fights and i cant forsee Hatton getting blown out. But, hey... I've seen you be right before:yep

That is more like it, but don't dismiss everyone supporting Ricky as blind nuthuggers. I think most have said pbf is deservedly the fav to win and we can all see how it sould/would happen. The diff is some of us can see how Ricky could get inside and do the damage that Floyd hasn't felt before and if that happens then who knows ?

If PBF wins he shall get his respect off the majority of Hatton fans as most have the upmost respect for him as a fighter now anyway, it is just his public persona that puts some off

[Smith]

He has a chance, mainly because nobody really knows whats going to happen, he could be supernatural on the night.

End of the day, PBF, win or lose, will still be the superior boxer.

I want 'wicky' to come back down to 140 to square off against Junior, with the switch hitter coming out on top and proving he's the best light welter.

[Ambition_Def]

I can't say I disagree with the outcome. "Fair but False" will make sure his face is in the camera all night long. And that means making sure Hatton's hit and hold strategy plays no part.

Hatton may regret taking this fight in the states.

And no, this isn't a prediction from me. Who really knows what Cortez will and won't allow. But I have a suspicion he won't allow Hatton to hold and hit.

Actually most will switch-off from boxing and go back to what they were doing before, supporting that worldbeater of a team: Man City:roll:...I can guarantee you a week from Hatton's destruction, Mayweather could walk down the streets of Manchester without being known as the man who permanently retired "Our Wicky".:hi:

[ThePlugInBabies]

come on K2 mate, who do you support? :p

Mayweather, fight Cotto or Williams, or shut the fuck up. Ya know what I'm sayin?

if mayweather fought hatton in his prime at his natural weight of 140 he would have lost.

Maybe some will, but I can just see alot (e.g. David UK), saying something like: (eventhough Mayweather won) nobody loves him (Mayweather), everyone loves Hatton, hope he dies (Mayweather), etc etc...

That's not an excuse. That is a continuation of what he is feeling at this time.

Think before posting.

[Fedor Em]

Hatton is on the verge of greatness, he showed that against Zoo, and has been impressive in every fight since then besides Collazo, but I think he will come up just short against Mayweather. Hatton might become an ATG but I doubt it.

Myself included.

Hatton might become an ATG but I doubt it.Don't fear to be more assertive than that, dude, it's not like your balls are on the line. :lol:

[Decebal]

I agree with Amsterdam. It will be Ricky's drive, determination and heart and his relentless pressure during the fight that will force Floyd to give it his best and fight hard, thereby increasing the chances of Ricky being stopped by the referee on a cut/ having his face ripped up and bloody. Even if Floyd wanted to go for the wide UD in this fight, or even take it fairly easy as he did against DLH, I think he will be forced to fight and I can see a stoppage. If Ricky doesn't do it early, in the first 5-6 rounds, it will be Floyd that likely does it...If Ricky doesn't give it his very best his chances of being stopped would decrease and he would lose a wide UD...

[toffeejack]

To arrogantly predict that Hatton won't win one round is ludicrous.

If he gets hammered, there won't be any excuses from me. He simple would have lost to the better fighter.

And please stop mentioning the fact that they are fighting at 147 pounds because it means nothing in this fight. Hatton will come in at his normal Jr. Welter weight of around 153 pounds, probably same or slightly heavier than Floyd on the night.

[BITCH ASS]

Donaire TKO Mijares.

[VIPERMAN]

No we won't we will say well done to floyd and that floyd really is that good and take our hats off to him that's the difference between us and floyd fans


thats the complete truth in all this lonsdale. there won't be excuses from brits, floyd will get his dues.
however the floyd fans are SO BLINKERED AND PATRONISING about this fight that they will run off the following excuses when he loses.

- it was cortez's fault
- floyds got hand problems
- dancing with starts effected him
- floyd's lost his hunger
- floyds body is breaking up.

let this be said - THERE IS NO EXCUSES IN THIS FIGHT!!!!! these are 2 undefeated fighters in the prime of their boxing careers. the winner is gonna win because he deserved too, so do not give any bullshit after this fight.

[Guru_Too_You]

Funny, but last time I checked, holding and hitting was against the rules.

And this was a cherry picked fight.




:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

:patsch :patsch

:vonnecunt

[lbarrow]

I personally think mayweather is gonna win this one but you lot either dont know shit about boxing or you have only watched hatton against collazo. hatton definitely has more than just being a face first madman. he gives good angles, great body puncher and hits sharply everywhere all over u and wont let people rest great pressure that has a method.
hattons not amazing but he is very good at what he does. its gonna be an intriging fight no doubt i wanna see what mayweather does with the pressure and body shots and hattons will to win. hatton will start strong with the first 4 rounds but i see mayweather then taking over.

[Sheehan]

No we won't we will say well done to floyd and that floyd really is that good and take our hats off to him that's the difference between us and floyd fans

exactly :good

[Lacyace]

And this was a cherry picked fight.
Funny how in a few months, people's perspective changes.

I will never forget how the majority of you dudes said PBF was ducking Hatton after Hatton made those smart-ass comments after his ko of Kostya Tszyu. Which was a very arrogant move for someone who's supposed to be a "nice guy." What was it he said? Something about more action in his fight than all of PBF's combined? Anyway, most of you guys said PBF was ducking Hatton even though it wasn't true. For years, PBF tried to get a fight with Hatton to no avail. Only to finally get the fight and in turn, have the fans claim that PBF only took the fight because he knew he would win. Sickening.

[Pantera]

i agree 100% with everything you say.. Hatton is the most over-rated fighter ive ever known and saturday night puts an end to all this bullsh*t his supporters spew-out about him

If that's the case, when Mayweather defeats Hatton that victory will have very little meaning in his record? :think

After all, Floyd haters will be able to say that beating Ricky doesn't count for greatness since Hatton was an over rated fighter after all, etc, etc, etc...:hey

[Betty Swollocks]

I agree 100% with thread starter and Hatton is gonna get badly exposed on Saturday

[planetzion]

No we won't we will say well done to floyd and that floyd really is that good and take our hats off to him that's the difference between us and floyd fans

how true ...floyd fans are some of the most one eyed delusional shit stains i have encountered

All Mayweather's fights are handpicked, but he is still good and the best in the division, and the best in boxing. Manny Pacquiao is starting to get the drift, that you can fight less threatening fighters and get paid more. That is why he is doing his rematch tour, instead of fighting Juan Diaz or Juan Guzman.

i do believe hatton is a bit over rated but not as much as some people think. granted, his best wins are over 2 less than complete fighters due to age and motivation but the fact remains that he did beat them and beat them very convincingly. these were two very hard men in their time and ricky stopped them cold. i dont like to make excuses for fighters because at this level these guys know what it takes to beat a champ so its their resposibility to come correct. if they dont, then their opponent has beat them before the fight even starts. being great means putting in the work like floyd does and if you cant put in the work then you just dont have everything you need to be great. all and all i dont think floyd will breeze through ricky like he did corrales. and chico was no slouch. i think it will be more like 8 rds to 4 in favor of floyd.

Fuck no! him and mybe another million posters predicted a TKO on this fight by Floyd.. I even said that Hatton will need to bring a knife to win this fight..And I only needed a sentence

[Decebal]

Come on, don't be shy!:D

[chimba]

Come on, don't be shy!:D

I posted 3 a few months ago that Ricky will need a knife to win this fight. And he did need it

I hear he's picking Federer to win in the tennis next.;)

I hear he's picking Federer to win in the tennis next.;)

and he said that Nadal have a good shot of winning the French open

[MancMexican]

I wanted hatton to win but I bet my money on floyd winning in either round 9,10 or 11 at odds of 40-1 for each round. Just wish I'd had more money to bet!

It was hard to see hatton get knocked out but Floyd was magnificant and did exactly what I thought he would do and caught hatton coming in in the late rounds.

Always bet with your head, not your heart.

:lol:

Is he also predicting how many aces and winners down the line Federer will win by, how many games and sets and breaks and how long it will take him to the minute?:hey

[Decebal]

Amsterdam is back!!!!!:happy :happy :happy :happy :happy

[BigReg]

Ha, shows how much you know Amsterdam. You said Floyd would win by TKO in round 9, and that Hatton wouldn't win 1 round. Floyd didn't TKO him untill the 10th, and I actually scored 1 round for Hatton(the 5th).

...'Hatton is one of the world's 10 best fighters non-sense'.

It'll be an impressive win for Floyd, just on the sheer domination of the beatdown that he's about to dish out, but the only issue I have with it is for the fact that it's a cherry-picked fight, which I have said since it was announced.

Thankfully, something good will finally be established, and the good will be that everyone will see that Hatton is nothing resembling one of boxing's true elite.

He's sloppy, squared up always, open always and lacks the outside skill to even press his way in. Coming in head first against a slick counter puncher while not using a jab or effective guard is just asking to get cut up to pieces, yet Hatton has no way to correct this because he is not skilled or talented enough to do so.

It's sickening that Hatton is considered a top 10 P4P fighter after what he's done since Tszyu, which by all means, was a win that merited a P4P ranking then, despite the fact that we were not dealing with a prime Tszyu and were dealing with the worst style for Tszyu possible, rough housing and smothering. The soviet-precision counter puncher style of Tszyu that is not backed up by a sound defence is horrible against rough housing and pressure.

Against Castillo last, he got the early KO, but he looked terribly sloppy and in round 3 Castillo even at his worst form yet was able to exploit some of those defensive flaws that Hatton has and landed some good shots, I couldn't help but think to myself - 'Wow, imagine if Castillo had the ability to slip Hatton's sloppy work and still had his prime timing, this wouldn't even be a content really'.

Does anybody think Hatton can beat any top 5 Welter? I think they all destroy him with ease.

Yet this is one of the world's best 10 fighters? Give me a break.

Mayweather TKO 9, and I cannot wait to see some of these ridiculous Hatton fans comments after Ricky can't even so much as win a round clearly. The two things that we already know are coming are -

'No big deal losing to the world's best'

- Certainly not Hatton fans, but getting totally thrashed uncompetitively like he's going to be is a clear statement.

Then they will of course be blown away by Floyd and comment accordingly, even though this is completely predictable and as clear as crystal what's going to happen as Hatton is not a good technical pressure fighter, but a rough housing swarmer tailor made for an effective slick counter puncher.
Good work Amsterdam we both called it.:good :lol: :rofl :lol:

[Betty Swollocks]

yes that was a very good analysis. I was out by one round on the TKO.

Hatton was exposed.

[Relentless]

fuckers!

why dont i get credit?

i predicted floyd to school hatton to a late tko.

[Decebal]

Good work Amsterdam we both called it.:good :lol: :rofl :lol:

:twisted:

[Amsterdam]

Mayweather exposed Hatton for the naturally smaller and slower man that moved up in weight to fight and still didn't get KO until the tenth round. Like I said, Hatton exposed Mayweather for the chump he is for taking ten rounds to knock out a naturally smaller and slower opponent that moved up in weight to fight him. :tired

I can't argue with this mate.
