Exactly if anything Hatton was a better fighter that fought Manny. Before he was just trained by Billy Graham ( who fucking sucks!) and he had no head movement.

After Hatton lost to Mayweather he pretty much dropped his defense and sorta started brawling more
Mayweather is currently a lot more technical than Manny
It's not about you thinking that it's true, they're fucked up things that hit Hatton in the face

Being exciting and brawling are not always the same
He began holding onto other fighters to avoid making it a real punch-out, basically he just used his size to overpower guys like Malignaggi
If you ask me, that counts as brawling

yup, he got scared, mayweather broke his will and his heart
and i've always said i think Mayweather is the only one that can beat Manny, you have to be a smart, fast, technical, EXTREMELY technical boxer to beat Manny, and mayweather is all of those things

Its good for business. Let Mayweather smash the guy who beat Manny. Then the Mayweather-Manny showdown will be hyped up like a mother fucker. Biggest super fight since Lewis-Tyson.

Pacman beat Oscar so easily because Oscar dropped a few pounds too many.
Mayweather fought Oscar at 154, Oscar proper weight where he still had energy.
Mayweather knows this, he knows that while Pacquiao has been impressive, he also knows the media is blowing his wins out of proportion.
No fighter is ever completely the same after they have been knocked out at such a level of the game and neither was Hatton. If you think otherwise, pick another sport.
Smoker's right, it's good business indeed. Hype up both of them and let the good times roll.
Manny "the giant killer", Mayweather "the undefeated".
