Could Hatton even beat Tim Bradley?

Yeah, but your an idiot. So your opinion doesn't count :deal

 

He took Kostya's best. Your right though....he's packing glass:goodatsch

 

Nothing ridiculous about it. You just don't know how good Bradley is and the styles adavntage he has in this fight.:deal

 

how would fighting in the us made the result any different?

 

We know how good Bradley is. You are underestimating Hatton at 140 :deal

 

The same problems Hatton had against PBF at 147 are the same ones he had his whole career at 140 that would be exploited by a good counter-puncher. Not to mention Bradley has good defense, good stamina and a chin. If Hatton fought Bradley you'd have alot of shocked Hatton fans in disbelief. Styles make fights my friend.

 

you said that about castillo before he fought hatton

 

Hatton couldn't train for the last week leading up to the fight due to a virus (it was documented at the time and people thought the fight may be called off), he gets wobbled on the way to a clear points decision and you think this is evidence enough to say a fighter who stood up to Zoos punches (the same ones that had KO'd Sharmba Mitchell a few months earlier) and has been dropped only once at 140 in 40+ fights has a weak chin?

 

Yeah but who knew JLC was shot?atsch I would to this day favor a prime JLC over Hatton in a heartbeat.

 

And you've seen all these attributes proven and tested in the Witter and Cherry fights? An out of sorts older fighter and a gatekeeper....big deal.

 

No i see the styles advantage in this fight and it's in Bradley's favor. Bradley is still a young fighter who will only get better Hatton is either at his peak or slightly past it.

 

Hopefully Bradley WILL get better but as of now he's done very little to prove he can beat Ricky Hatton.

 

My god...atsch

First, I think there is ZERO problem with someone saying Hatton would win. But what your post suggests is not based on fact.

Hatton recently fought Paulie Mallinaggi, a fighter who's best win is hands down a close fight with Herman Ngoujo. He held a belt, yes, but so does Bradley...only Bradley won his against a MUCH better fighter in Witter...IN WITTER'S BACKYARD AT THAT! Which coincidently happens to be Hatton's backyard as well (well country, but you get the point). Meaning, he is alot more well known then Mallinaggi was to Hatton fans themselves....so in turn, is not as little known as you think. Definately moreso then Hatton's last two opponents...by a fair amount as well.

And since when does a fighter have to "win the lottery" to get a unification bout (remember, if Bradley beats Holt in April, he will have 2 belts)???

But even if he did win "the lottery" as you said, it would come down to skill and matchups. And Bradley fights exactly how Hatton doesnt like. He has great movement and footwork and WONDERFUL timing (among the best in the sport right now...and definately the best of the younger, newer fighters out there...). Now obviously Ricky is the best fighter he has ever faced...and Bradley has yet to face a viscious body puncher like him before...so I can see an arguement for Ricky. But if it comes down to stylistic matchups, Bradley holds a huge advantage, as everything he does extremely well plays right into Ricky's weaknesses.

Saying Hatton would win easily kinda offbase and reaks of either lack of exposure to actually seeing Bradley fight...or just plain bias. Just my 2 cents...

 

that's why hatton better take 60/40 against pac. cause he getsd donwe by holt, torres, or bradley
