Amir Khan vs Ricky Hatton that Mayweather fought in 07

you dont get "exposed" by losing to the p4p best.

just like I posted khan vs gomez to highlight early signs of khans lack of infighting ability, hattons early fight against southpaw slickster eamonn magee (first person to floor and trouble hatton with the right hook roll under combo, hatton wouldnt be floored again til he fought mayweather) showed his lack of defence, but it also showed his ability to alternate his gameplan and box his way back into a fight.

look up the rest of the fight for yourselves if you want, but still, the point stands.

also, its not a conflict of interest that gomez and magee are both irishmen

 

+1

 

Hatton knocks him out.

 

Hatton has heavier hands than Maidana. Sure, Khan is fast, but does he ever get caught. Hatton could lose the first five rounds, and put Khan out like a light once his speed started to slip.

 

at Hatton being overrated for losing to the two best fighters of this past decade.

What does that make Khan, who got knocked silly by Prescott, and was taken to hell and back by the limited Maidana?

 

Hatton by KO. Hatton will chase him down. With Hatton's bodywork, Khan won't be able to sustain his bicycle at the latter rounds.

 

Hatton by KO around the 8th round, you have to be real ignorant no deny this, khan is just a big favorite right now so he's automatically overrated.

 

i always thought that hatton's style will be a big problem for khan. he has good inside fighting, good at cutting the ring and good power on both hands. but with roach on khan's side, he might caught hatton, but not as quick as pac did.

 

Hatton would blow him out the water like his hands were torpedoes - Mayweather

 

Hatton , its not close , the hand speed is with Khan , but the foot speed is clearly with Hatton. Hatton also punches alot crisper and straighter than maidana, maybe not as hard , but much more effective.

Hatton would slow Khan down to a walking pace by the 8th and stop him by the 10th , in an entertaining and not completely one sided fight.

 

Hahaha...Khan is getting over rated by some here. Hatton will knock him out in the later rounds.

 

Khan UD, outboxing

 

Khan UD

 

If Khan could keep Hatton off of him for 12 rounds, Khan wins. But I don't believe he could. Hatton would close the distance faster than Maidana, walk through shots, work the body and head...Hatton late TKO, or bodyshot.

 

Hatton would stop him, maybe in a year or two we'll have a version of Khan who could be more competitive in this fantasy match-up.
