Amir Khan would dismantle Hatton.

battle of the british chins.

 

im not comparing them im saying they are different. Khan is too fast and powerfull, Khan hits very hard and he dont just hit and run like floyd.

 

As said in an earlier post, I wouldn't want this fight to happen for Khan's sake.

Not saying Khan has Hatton's number, but from a public point of view it wouldn't be good for Khan's career in the UK.

He's not popular in the UK due to the 'Frank Warren Bull**** Machine'.
And Hatton has become a national hero over the last 10 years.

I think it would be a bit like Henry Cooper vs Joe Bugner in 1971.
Where the young Bugner was fighting for Copper's commonweath, british, european heavyweight titles.
Bugner was 21 and Copper was British boxing icon for 20 years.
When Bugner beat Copper on points he was boo by the british public for beating Our 'Enry.
The public and sports writers turned on Joe and hounded him out the country for beating a british boxing legend.
Copper retired 2 weeks after the fight and Bugner immgrated to Australia soon not long after too.

Now i'm not saying anything that bad will happen, and Hatton isn't seen as Henry Copper.
But just don't think Khan needs to be booed by his own public if he beats Hatton to retirement.
He's young and got a good future ahead of him, more so if he gets rid of Warren.

Anyone else see this? Or just my crazy mind working overtime? :rofl

 

exactly two glass chins, i go for the man with a 7 inch reach advantage which is khan and speed advantage and power.

 

i believe Khan will beat Kotelnik and after that i cant see what he has to gain to fight someone like Hatton. What can Khan gain from such a pointless fight.

 

FMJ fights in the pocket - Khan fights outside. Getting close to FMJ means nothing because thats what Floyd wants you to do. Get close so he can pot shot you and tie u up before moving away..

 

well said.

 

To say Floyd fights like this every time means you havn't seen his fights. Often he can take the centre and run.

 

Khan and Mayweather's names don't belong in the same paragraph. Ever.

Khan would come to fight against Hatton but would fold as soon as he got popped. He can't avoid being hit for long - even a blind old midget rocked him...twice!

 

floyd doesnt "take the centre and run" - its as naaive for you to say that as to judge others for not knowing how he fights.

whether you like floyd or not he adapts and listens to his trainer.

he's a smart, smart fighter whether you like it or not.

 

I don't bet against Freddy Roach anymore, so i would go for Khan if they fight. Tho you never know, wouldn't suprise me if Hatton did win.

 

I hope you enjoyed watching that one Mayweather fight on Youtube. Anyone who has a more rounded experience will know your statement is incorrect. Styles make fights and Mayweather has many styles...

 

Perhaps it was general, but nor does Floyd simply 'fight in the pocket' all the time.

Floyd is a special fighter, I'm a fan. He does 'run' to an extent, but so does my fav boxer of all Sweet Pea so its not a bad thing for me to say this.

 

i'm amazed that people think khan can beat hatton simply because he beat barrera at a weight that suited him.

thats pretty disrespectful of hatton's achievements.

 

Millions.
