    I don't understand why this fight has been made as I can't see magic going the distance with alvarez. Despite the huge improvement in his career, matt hatton isn't elite and I can't fathom why he's got this fight other than golden boy overestimating his popularity.

    It would be nice to see the upset but I'm not expecting it.

    I don't see how anyone can have a case for Matt, but hey if he wins good for him. I love a good underdog story.

    I give him no chance at all

    But if by some miracle he did win, i would have a big smile on my face. Would be an epic underdog story.

    No way, but I'll be thrilled for him if he does (even being a big Alvarez supporter).

    It'd be heartwarming to see him step at least partway out of his brother's shadow and shut up all the naysayers. Besides, Canelo is young and talented enough that he could rebound and work his way back up easily.

    Nope, I think he gets his ass handed to him in a one sided fight. He may be competive for a few rounds, but I don't see him finishing the fight on his feet.

    This.

    Just surviving would be a huge moral victory and cause to hold his head up.

    It would be one of the biggest upsets of recent time, but very unlikely.

    I predict Pacquiao-Hatton.
