trinidad vs jones

This Saturday, Ricky Hatton will face the best fighter in the world pound for pound, Floyd trinidad vs jones Jr., this is the biggest fight of Hattons life, he will be testing his skills against the best, and many think hes out of his league, and that his chances slim. At first thought of this match up, one must automatically choose Mayweather as the clear winner of this welterweight showdown, but better observation and deep consideration, Hatton has a pretty good chance. It is clear that Mayweather is the bigger man in this fight, he stands about 23 taller than Hatton, and also posses a huge 63 reach advantage, with the speed and agility of Mayweather, these advantages will definitely come into trinidad vs jones and it will truly give Hatton problems later in the fight as Mayweather never tends to tire in his fights, but&&.Hatton comes on strong throughout the entire bout, and comes on even stronger as the fight progresses.

and trinidad vs jones is how I think the fight will go down. (both fighters can win)

Hattons Chances: The one thing that needs to be noted, is that Hatton is not a fighter who controls the fight at a distance, hes an old fashion brawler that hits holds and tries to out-muscle trinidad vs jones in every way, he comes forward throwing bombs constantly, hes a tremendous pressure fighter who wears you down, he does not give you a chance to think or even breathe.

In this fight,

1) Hatton must do what he can to trap Mayweather, corner him, pound him, and bully him, becuase if Hatton lets Mayweather get into his rhythm of fighting his fight, It will be frustrating for Hatton as he tries to find the elusive Mayweather.

2) Hatton needs foot speed and angles to direct his vicious attack, using his trinidad vs jones to side technique (as hes shown on the series 24/7) to find the target because coming straight in with power punches will spell disaster for him, fighters who have stormed straight in towards Mayweather, usually find themselves missing punches, it wears them out, it saps their energy and it allows Mayweather to take control of the fight in the second half, Hatton must not miss, and it will be extremely tough to land a clean shot, but if he can, it will increase his chances of winning.

3) A phone booth fight is what Hatton wants, it will allow him to use his grappling technique (hit hold, and hit again), although this style is not fun to watch, it is how Hatton his fights, his short arms dont allow him to use an effective jab, he will fall short in this fight if he tries to establish a jab, Mayweather counters excellent when fighters throw a lazy jab, or try to stand in the middle of the ring and box, Mayweather is too sharp, and too quick.

4) Finally, Hatton must become an animal in there, show no fear, apply constant effective pressure, dont stand and wait, ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK is what will be the most effective for Hatton. Dont get lazy, and dont get frustrated (that also tires you out), stay calm and use lateral movement to land those steaming body shots, forget the head, its too much of hard target, hit the arms, the elbows, the body, and the chest&&.wear him down, beat him up, rough him up, KNOCK HIM OUT!! (a decision will be to hard to Hatton MUST knock Mayweather out early, I believe that if the fight looks close by the 7-8th rounds, itll go to trinidad vs jones who will take control later in the fight.

Mayweathers Chances: In this bout, Mayweather the more experienced fighter, hes the quicker more elusive boxer, hes everything that Hatton hasnt seen. Mayweather is an defensive genius who makes you and makes you pay, hes right there in front of you, and yet you cant hit him, you find yourself chasing him around and wearing yourself out in the process. When you finally get frustrated and you over commit yourself, hell switch into second gear and just make you look silly, hell hit you with a four hit combo before you even get your feet set to strike, this will be Hattons worse nightmare, if hes not careful.

In this fight,

1) Establish his jab, and use his foot speed to angle himself away from Hatton, Hatton likes to hit and hold, and when Hatton ties Mayweather up (which hell try to do often), Mayweather must return the technique, grab Hattons left hand, dont allow him to get off by hitting him, to the body and to the head, this will make Hatton think twice about holding, and hell turn to using pure aggression trinidad vs jones land his shots, therefore, opening up plenty of counter punches opportunities.

2) Land body shots, as often as he can, Mayweather is a decent body punchers, he used a stiff body shot to knock out veteran Sharmba Mitchell in their fight (2yrs ago). When a fighter has a money punch, that often means they are vulnerable to that same punch, Hatton is one of the best body punchers in the 140 & 147lbs division (Next to Miguel Cotto) so Mayweather must be cautious as to not get hit with them, and with all the grueling dieting and weight loss the Hatton has sustained throughout his training camp, that will give Mayweather a good chance to do great damage with his own body shots.

3) Hit Hatton, and hit him often. In his career, Hatton has been known as a Bleeder, a guy whos face tends to rip and swell when its been tagged with punches, and Mayweather is the sharpest counter punching boxer that Hatton has ever faced, Mayweather can hit Hatton enough to eventually cause severe swelling, or even deep harmful cuts that can end the fight.

4) Mayweather just needs to BOX, thats what he best, use the ring (as he always does) to control the bout, and he must not give the early rounds away, because Hatton will come on strong early (knowing the early rounds are his best chances of scoring a KO or TKO), and Mayweather must not give Hatton any chances to attack, stay on his toes, and sustain trinidad vs jones rhythm every minute of every round.

I hope fight ends up being what it should, the Classic Boxer against the Old Fashion Brawler&lets pray they play it out as we all envision it.

Personally, Id like to see Mayweather get beaten, bruised and battered, but I dont think itll happen&&&.Mayweather by Unanimous Decision
