Default Can Ricky Hatton do it?

What is everyone's thoughts on Saturdays big fight between Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather?
I think Ricky could do it if he can draw Mayweather into a 'scrap' so to speak.

i am also not an expert but he is up against a very good fighter who appears at the moment to be talking the talk, but can he walk the walk?-if Hatton goes for it all guns blazing, he could have him in the first round, but if it turns into points and a scrap, then i would still go for our boy-at any rate, it is the most eagerly awaited fight in years and Hatton has thousands of Brits in Las Vegas and a few Americans as well as they do not appear too keen on supporting their fighter

CMON RICKY

If Ricky doesn't cut, and he fights an intelligent fight and saves his stamina for the last few rounds he will win, he will need to stay close to Mayweather to stop him dancing around, and annoy him so he loses his rythm in the fight. If it goes to a points decision I think Hatton will take it, so good luck to to him and hopefully he will knock the crap out of Mayweather.

I know little about boxing but am hoping Ricky can do it.

I don't think so, but all great runs come to an end so here's hoping.

Sorry folks, he didn't do it. Mayweather stopped him in the 10th round.

It's a shame Ricky didn't do it, but it's no shame that he lost. Mayweather is a fabulous fighter, and showed that he is just as good at the 'inside fighting' as he is at the 'boxing'
