    **** i voted khan by dec but i meant hatton by dec. Hatton had very quick feet, i see him getting inside and doing his thing. His one dimension is khans biggest weakness, Very bad style matchup for Khan. IMo

    hatton all day. Khan can not fight at all on the inside. Hes been hurt by plenty of fighters who didnt punch as hard as hatton and a prime Hatton would walk through Khans flurrys and Khans foot speed wouldnt be enough to keep him away from ricky. Hatton by KO somewhere in the middle rounds

    Agree, But I could see Hatton getting on the inside all too often and eventually landing with something big to khans liver or noggin and stopping him. If the hatton that fought Kostya turned up Khan wouldn't be able to hit and run his way to a decision, would be constant pressure from the hitman.Too be fair I don't think he'd be able to hit and run his way to a decision either way! And I doubt Khan hits hard enough to stop hatton.

    Hatton would have destroyed Khan due to style. He had a good chance of KOing Khan because of his pressure and good hand and foot speed.

    I don't see how Khan outboxes or outbrawls Hatton so how would he win? He can't even deal with Peterson.

    Hatton would be exposed here yet again. In reality this fight would never have happened. With Hatton notoriously being terrified to face the superior Juinor Witter then theres no chance he would have taken on Khan who no doubt would have won by a lopsided decision.

    LMAO!!!:patsch did you ever watch hatton fight??????? absolute nightmare for khan stylewise crybaby khan would had fits against the hitman and would of received a massive beatdown hattons body attack alone would of had khan hanging for dear life by the 4th round and probably got stopped by the 7th if khan went life and death against the very crude maidaina just think what a much more skilled fighter in hatton would of done no contest imho opinoin now get outta here with your silly comments your clearly a khan spooner :hi:

    I'm open to the idea that Khan can improve enough to one day be greater, but as it stands, Hatton is good good of a pressure fighter to be neutralized by Khan's conventional out-fighting tactics. I'm not sure he can hurt Khan enough to stop him, but he would definitely make it a brutal physical fight. Hatton by decision.

    Hatton would murder Khan. Khans 10 punch combinations that hit fresh air and arms would not stop Hattons constant pressure, Hatton had great footwork and would stay on the inside for the whole of the fight. Khan simply wouldn't have a clue what to do.

    Even Hatton when he was at British/euro level would beat the version of Khan right now. Hattons bad chin in the latter stages of his career is the only thing that could have let him down in this fight were it to happen a couple of years ago.

    No, but you're probably some sort of EDL or Soccer AM fanboy type.

    Hatton was never at any point in his career "exposed". He is a 2 weight world champion that ruled the 140lb division. Im a huge Mayweather fan but that fight would have been a lot different had it been in another venue without Cortez, i still fancy Floyd to have won but not as clearly as he did. He was then KO'd by a prime Pac at the end of his career when he had **** all chin left.
