Ricky Hatton

I was watching the first parts of the Collazo fight, and god Hatton's body punching is ridiculous -- it's a thing of beauty. He's quick as **** too. I think Mayweather's gonna have his hands full this upcoming fight, can't wait.

 

I think his defense is underrated too. He uses kind of a tyson-eque weave to slip and counter punches. I think people who believe this is gonna be a easy fight for Mayweather are dead wrong.

 

hatton should try get malignaggi as his sparring partner to prepare for floyd.

 

well i dont know how do i, malignaggi is probably the closest thing to floyd.

and i really doubt hatton can hurt malignaggi, hatton is getting wooped by francisco figueroa.

 

Malignaggi fighting on the undercard makes it an even better idea, it gets them both ready for the fight, can push each other in a training camp atmosphere.

It won't happen, but Hatton training with Mosley and Floyd training with Cotto would be good for all 4 fighters in their upcoming fights.

 

that is a great idea.

 

ok then he's not but neither is the soutpaw gato figueroa who hatton is sparring.

 

Hatton has a great body attack, but he better perform better against Floyd than he did against Collazo.

 

nope, but this guy is kicking hattons ass in sparring, have you not seen the video yet?

 

Of course not, but the stylistic similarity is there. You don't have to be the best guy for the job to be a good guy for the job.

 

but if it was berto's victim figueroa then it is even worse!

 

That video was from before the Urango fightatsch

Hatton spars to correct technique, he never goes full out and beats them up.
