    WHo do you like in this one? The experienced and proven but smaller top 10 pfp (for this fight) or the hard hitting,bigger and but still green future pfp top 10 Alvarez? I actually think this would be a very intriguing possibly even matchup.... At 147 i might slightly lean towards Hatton if he can manage to not get caught with a big shot by Canelo... At 154 ill take Canelo Alvarez.

    yey i might be jumping the gun but if he isnt thrown in with the wolves too fast, i believe he can be an elite in the sport. Give him Yuri, Vanes and maybe another tough but safe guy and i think he will develop into that type of fighter.

    I agree i think Canelo is overrated in Mexico but, i think hes become underrated here on ESB and by other critics. Even my FB boxing friends are underrating him.

    are you lot crazy, look at the size different, hel hurt hatton with a jab. Not becuase hes that good but becuase his size and reach will give hatton problems.

    canello has no inside game, and hatton will be able to get inside on him.

    Just be happy you have a TV station that talks about boxing.
