    I guess we'll see.
    I do anticipate that if Hatton wins, the majorty of PBF fans will cry "Ruiz".
    If Hatton wins, he will surpass Joe, though.
    As of right now, Joe is better.

    Ill cry Ruiz if he fights like Ruiz. If he fights like Juan Diaz ill give him props. Thats all there is to it.

    Yeah.

    If Hatton beats PBF, he beats him. Period. Both men are aware of how the other fights.

    Peace.

    I didn't expect it to be this much of a blowout in favour of Calzaghe. Partly because hatton generally seems more popular.

    If Hatton beats Mayweather It would be close
    At the moment being the best SMW of this era and possibly regarded better than that is more than Hatton could hope to be.
    Better fighter IMO would be Calzaghe, the guy gets away with clowning around in every fight I have seen him in, regardless of opposition. He had been doubted and proved himself the better fighter every time.

    A bit arrogant? Yes, but he has every right to be.

    Well, dude....partially you're getting the knee-jerk post-fight immediate reaction regardless. Waiting one night doesn't cut it. :lol:

    That being said, had you made this post before last night, I'm not sure the result would have been DRASTICALLY different.

    Peace.

    If Hatton wins it's going to be by mauling, spoiling and roughing Floyd up.

    Basically you're saying you'll give Hatton no credit if he beats Floyd?

    I suspect we'll get very used to hearing that kin of thing if Hatton wins

    Joe is better but Joe has had more time to cement his place in boxing. Hatton is still unknown in some respects, but Hatton is better than a lot of people think.

    But for the sake of my dear friend Double L I will play devil's advocate and say: Hatton beat Zoo who, to most everybody but dim-a-pimpel on the arse, would concede is a better fighter than Kessler the hesitant Dane.

    As of today Calzaghe, but who knows what is around the corner.
