Mayweather v. Hatton

Hatton a fraud? Do you follow the sport? He's the 140 lb champ. The REAL champ, not some alphabet champ. He's an amazing jr welter, he just was in the wrong weight class and Floyd is too good for pretty much everyone Jr. Middle on down. A fight with Cotto would be fun to watch though

He was a fraud given that he was positioned as having a great chance at beating Mayweather.

Hatton should stay up. There just isn't much at 140. 147 is, obviously, loaded. In fact, maybe not for his next fight, but a Hatton/De La Hoya fight is probably all but done.

 

PBF, well, there just isn't much for him. Some say Cotto, but I just see another easy W. And then what? Paul Williams? He's got a ridiculous reach, maybe he would be the one to give PBF some trouble.

Who said he had a great chance? He had probably among the 5 best chances of 154 pounders on down but Mayweather is definitely #1 P4P. I would say that Cotto currently has the best chance. Other guys who could give him a fight but still probably lose would be Mosley, Margarito, Paul Williams would be interesting, and then probably Vernon Forrest. I don;t think Floyd would ever fight Vernon because its at 154 and there is not a ton of money that Forrest brings to the table but he'd give FLoyd some problems with his size. In general, it would take a bigger man to rough Floyd up and it likely has to happen at jr middle. Floyd did not carry the 154 pounds that well against Oscar. I don't think he'd go back to that weight class unless it was a superfight

cotto, margarito, malignaggi, DLH rematch to name a few, would be great fights imo
