    Hatton didn`t land much of Tyzu and I think Tsyzu was overrated anyway.

    Khan didn`t have the power to drop Hatton and would be on his bike too much to sit down on his shots, everytime he would stop to punch Hatton would counter him.

    Maidana did far better v Floyd than Hatton did.

    Khan would not be comfortably ahead because Hatton was so active he wouldn`t let Khan rest for a second and would land well to the body just how Canelo started to before dropping Khan for the count.

    Crawford would have destroyed Hatton with ease.

    Khan did not have world class fundamentals, just world class speed and nothing else, his reach and footspeed would work well for him V Hatton because he would clinch everytime Hatton got on the inside.

    Collazo, Mayweather and Pacquiao all fast all beat him, And getting knocked out cold by Walterweight Mayweather says a lot about your chin.

    By a welterweight turnbuckle* and he wasn't out cold...

    Pacquiao would put Khan in a body bag. Mayweather would also stop Khan. Both are much much better than Khan, I didn't think someone had to say this.

    I'm not saying Khan beats him, but he definitely can make it tough for Hatton since Khan can move and has good pop, remember Khan had a weak chin, but Hatton was a body puncher not much of a head hunter so things would've gotten interesting, As for Pacquiao, yeah he kills Khan but different styles, Khan moves and boxes, Hatton was a rusher, Imo Khan would've made it more than 2 rounds since Pacquiao had trouble with fighters that can move and box especially a fast one.

    Hatton doesn't fight like Maidana despite both being aggressive fighters. Maidana can be slower sometimes and less wild especially in between rounds. He's not consistently aggressive, wild and generally nasty like Hatton is. That said, Mayweather was 29 years old when he fought Hatton and 36 years old when he fought Maidana. Not to take anything away from Maidana's gutsy performances, but 7 years age difference is no joke.

    That is also very possible.

    So it's OK for you not to like Groves but not for me to dislike Witter? Were you wearing huge shoes, a wig and make up when you replied to me on this thread because if you weren't you should of been.

    Khan gets wrecked though he'll have success early on.

    Good fight based on both having styles the other one hates. Although hatton was the better fighter....his pressure would have got to khan. Who didn,t look good under pressure pretty much against anyone that put pressure on.

    Hatton very much underrated on here. Was a class fighter...dont think the americans seen the best of him. Wasted a lot of his career waiting on the tyszu fight. By the time he got to america he faced better guys that made him look not quite as good. It happens. He was there a couple of years too late. Fought collazo at 147. Which was a mistake cause collazo was naturally bigger negated hattons best attributes. And floyd made everyone look bad. Watch his career back tho...hes better than people think. Like all of them he was picking favourable opponents...but he was looking fantastic doing it. Just fell short against floyd...but who never tbh.
