    Hatton's got the power and the body shots, I'd wager that Timmy's faster and actually the bigger guy.

    Hatton hits behind the head, Bradley attacks with his head.

    While Hatton IS the more proven fighter at the weight with the better names on his Ws, I also believe Bradley is more multi-dimensional than Hatton, and he could probably hold his own on the inside, so in this case I might edge it to him.

    It would be a dirty, ugly, foul-filled fight, that's my prediction.

    I actually think Bradley would have beaten Hatton in a close, ugly, downright horrid fight to watch. . . You better beiieve Hatton would get headbutted, and have cuts opened up as well.

    I remember when Bradley beat Witter, I thought he would eventually go on and beat Hatton, too.

    Bradley would start taking over on the post 1/2 of the fight... Hatton lacked defense on the outside and inside. Bradley seems to know to pick when to open up and exchange and when to defend on the inside.

    :think

    I give Hatton a slight edge. I don't think Bradley could out-maneuver him for 12 rounds, and he's not that tight on the inside (nor have we seen him defend from intelligent pressure); if it comes down to an inside fight and a war of attrition (which I would expect it to), I think Hatton's savvy gets him the W.

    Bradley won't be able to keep Hatton off of him IMO. Ricky had quicker feet too.

    He's so under rated on this forum it's a joke; then again this place has guys who think RJJ was a hype job, so I won't take it to heart.

    You have an emerging pattern!!!!

    If it is UK fighter, then the UK fighter wins. If it is gayweather, then obviously Gayweather wins simply because it is an obvious choice and more importantly you are a *****.

    Unfortunately,I agree with you this time.

    Bradley does not have the power to keep Hatton off him. Nomatter how fast you are, at some point you have to engage.And Bradley simply does not have a fast feet.


    That also explains why you believe that Lennox Lewis wins against Muhammad Ali. ------ESSEX!

    How about Adrian stone vs. Cotto?

    :lol: You appear to have a personal issue with me...

    I'll explain slowly, please read it atleast three times before replying; to be sure that you understand.

    Hatton would beat Bradley in my view because Tim matches up poorly stylistically. Hatton would have more trouble with Alexander than he would Bradley. TB and Maidana are made to order for Ricky. Hatton was stronger physically, had much faster feet and a style which would not allow Bradley any room to get off the punches he would need to win. Again, in my opinion.

    Lennox Lewis would be very competitive with Ali. Only an idiot would think otherwise. Lennox was bigger, very well co-ordinated; defensively savvy, had a fantastic jab so that Ali could not purely dominate in that area and a solid powerful range finding right hand, which he would hit Ali with due to his great sense of timing. I have never said that Lewis wins ten ties out of ten; simply that he has a chance of winning.

    I pick Mayweather because I feel he will win the fight. Yes I'm a fan. You're a fan of Pacquaio, a fanatical fan who needs to open his eyes; but a fan.
    If Mayweaather was fighting Hearns, I'd favour Hearns. Cotto and Pacquaio are not Tommy Hearns, or SRR; and I favour Floyd Mayweather over both.

    (Remember to read that three timess)

    So you still stick to your "Cotto will have to vary his arsenal" thing?

    Are you even aware that Cotto is actually a converted southpaw? His right hand is non-existent. A hand that is supposed to be cocked and delievr the KO punch when he is on the orthodox stance!!!!

    I love how you skip everything I put down :lol: Admit it, you agree with me :hey

    Yes, I do. As you mentioned before; Mayweather adapts. So you HAVE to vary your attack. Otherwise he adapts to your one game plan and picks you apart.

    Surely you can see that :patsch

    Cotto is a converted southpaw, again you're right. He needs to use both hands against Mayweather. You aren't beating him with one hand! Cotto's right hand is also much improved, Steward started the improvement, the shoulder surgery seems to of given it some snap back (See Margo 2 fight) and Pedro Diaz seems to of developed it further. Cotto's right hand is not as good as his left, but it's by no means redundant.
