    Hatton could box... Ruslan can only fight one way..

    Hatton would have to do what he did v urango but he could do it and in his prime his chin was very good.

    hatton on a close UD in

    Have the ambulances on standby for that one. That's a dream 140 match-up for me. Hatton by MD.

    Hatton vs Matthyse would also be a barnburner!

    Hatton got out just in time as the division was really hotting up, would have loved to have seen fights with Khan,Maidana,Bradley,Lucas,Etc, all great fights.

    Would be a great fight. I'd pick Hatton by close decision.

    Hatton vs Matthysse would be an entertaining fight with both guys having some success in the early rounds but Matthysse knocks him out at some point in the second half of the fight.

    Provodnikov only defence is his face.

    Not a big fan of Hatton because he feasted on bums most of his career before cashing out, but he would beat the Prov

    Smart, insightful post.

    Provodnikov cannot be stopped, but can be outboxed (Algieri, Mathysse); Hatton has the skills and toughness to do that (Urango, Magee). Hatton wins UD

    Hatton would have won, more skills better defence and footwork, he would have won quite comfy on cards prob around 118-112
