hatton would pressure, eat shots, pressure some more, eat a few more, throw some body shots , eat some more , then ko khan
the younger hatton i felt was better than the hatton that was world champion gave himself space to land shots hands up i think he actually went downhill from then with people wantin to see brawls
I think most of yall got it wrong. khan got hatton at any point in hattons career. khan is FAR better than people realise, but theyll realise soon.
Hatton, not easily but within 6 rounds, his workrate and relentless style pays off. Pre-Tszyu he was very hungry and could fight 3 minutes of every round.
Khan as he is now would have beaten any Hatton, he would just box circles around him, keep him at a distance with his freakish reach and speed, and never let Hatton turn it into a brawl on the inside, which was all Hatton was really good at. Khan would likely get a K.O. in the mid to late rounds. I think people's hatred for Khan because of the past is getting in the way of them realizing how good he is now and how good he has been since Roach has been in his corner. The scary thing is that he is only going to get better. As someone alluded to before, Hatton was a really good and likeable fighter but he was never great.
relatively easy win for hatton, hatton in his prime had a good chin and khan has only average power, hattons quick on his feet and khan won't be able to get any distance and khans not very good inside, and of course khans chin would be cracked when hatton lands. couldn't see it going any other way. khan would probably beat him now though.
so what other fighters have managed to keep hatton at a distance? even mayweather couldn't for most of the fight.
