    I wasn't as impressed as most people seem to have been with Taylor's performance yesterday and think the disrespect shown for Hatton in recent years is ridiculous.

    I think Hatton should be favored, but it would be close.

    Hatton was shitty against southpaws.

    I have no reason to believe he just blows through Taylor

    Hatton was an animal in his short prime. I think he'd probably outwork Taylor who doesn't really have the big kind of power/timing needed to slow him down.

    Hatton. Hatton was way better than Prograis. Prograis hurt Taylor a lot, you could see it on Taylor's face, Hatton would finish him. Taylor has a **** load of heart though, so I could see it going 12.

    Hatton tends to get underrated in my opinion. People forget how ferocious and bullish he was in his prime.
