    He stopped Holt, who is far better than Morua and is more proven. It could have been a motivation thing, but i understand what you mean.

    And Hatton hasn't?

    And Hatton wasn't knocked out cold by Gayweather?

    i voted cotto. not a lot of people can stay on their feet after being hammered by plaster casts :lol:

    more seriously tho, cotto went up to 147 and his chin is still competetive. the fact hatton can't just means his chin is already maxed.

    MIGUEL COTTO! LET RICKY HATTON FIGHT SHANE MOSLEY or MARGARITO AND SEE if HE CAN LAST MORE THAN 5 ROUNDS. RICKY HATTONS CHIN SUCKS, IF MAYWEATHER CAN KNOCK ANYONE OUT OR WOBBLE THEM SEVERELY WITH ONE PUNCH YOU HAVE NO CHIN!

    How competitive would Cottos chin be at 140 now? He's partly at 147 because he's too big a fighter for 140.

    Both are under-rated, that's all I'm saying on the matter.

    Both have proven their true ability to take a punch, Hatton in the Tszyu fight and Cotto against Margarito.

    i'd say cotto but just about.cotto had problms at 140 with his chin but one would suspect that cutting weight took its toll. Has looked better against bigger fighters than hatton has for sure. id say mayweather would ko cotto as well tho especially if cotto gets hurt as well as tired.

    different weight classes... would have to be a p4p chin ranking... I'd go with Cotto purely on his ability to take Margos and Mosley shots.

    but cotto moved up because he couldn't make 140 any more and is a genuine WW whereas hatton makes 140 with ease.

    Read my post ....then read your reply and tell me what your point is?

    Maybe you want to slow down on the green tobacco.
