To good mayweather ... Reflexes are still class , having a debate before the fight I know he lost but people don't give Hatton the credit he deserved in there fight he pushed mayweather and bullied him until the ref decided to spoil the fight and then the rest is history ...one of the best of all time money , is Danny Garcia a possible opponent ?

I don't think the ref done Hatton any favours as he was clearly trying to make it a fight on the inside and keep it tight which the ref didn't allow. BUT, from around the sixth onwards he was coming at Mayweather in straight lines throwing singles which is a recipe for disaster against anyone.

If he'd have fought Manny the way he trained for, and for 6 rounds, fought Mayweather he'd have had a real chance.

I think that is a very fair shout, at he kept trying against Floyd, once most fighters get shut out by him they seem to just settle into it, much like Alverez last night, I think Floyd even said he doesn't knock people out much because they stop coming except for Ricky
 
I read somewhere today that Floyd Sr wants Khan next, surely if, and I think when Alexander wins their bout then that won't happen although big incentive now for Khan to win that fight.

Its just hard to pick Floyds next 4 opponents who can make the fights marketable from a financial point, looking back on how successful the Hatton fight was is probably the main reason for targeting Khan.

Was impressed with Garcia last night, surprised by that result although Matthysse's eye injury done him no favours.

Can't agree with ye regards Hatton-Pacquiao, it can easily be forgotten given his few poor showings since just how good Manny was at the time.
