Wanna give yourself a shot, WATCH CLIPS!
Mayweather is a talented and smart fighter, but quite frankly in the clips I have seen (burton, n'dou, gatti, corrales, Brusseles) his opponents seem not to have watched any film on him whatsoever or to have any semblance of a plan. Fighting like duran will help Hatton, but he will be far more dangerous if he recognizes the distinctive patterns of mayweather's movements (most notably the shoulder lowering to get to the chin of the opponent and explosion). If in response to this pattern one recognizes it and throws and undercutting shot to the body, it can be dealt with. There are several other distinctive patterns that can likewise be recognized. Surely Floyd is a smart fighter who can come up with additonal patterns (of course I have given only one of several examples) but a prepared opponent could at least make him think a bit and test him. Until this occurs, Floyd will be able to save money on cut men (starting feature of gatti fight, floyd's cutman did absolutely nothing beyond toweling him off.)
