    BWA HA HA:lol: Hattons a bigger test that Mosley?!?! BWA HA HA HA HA HA **** i nearly fell out of my chair.You young fans are ridculous. Mosley is a 3 weight world champ.He has been in the ring with the best and beaten some of the best fighters out there aswell as having a stellar career at 35 and 47 and you think a 1 trick pony like Hatton is a bigger test?!?! Styles make fights and Hatton would be a far far easier fight for Cotto than Mosley will ever be.

    Yeah your right 7lbs makes SUCH a big diffrence.I mean he even fights diffrently at 47 doens he:patsch

    Cotto is the SAME fighter that he was at 40 as he is at 47.His style hasnt changed.The only diffrence is the marginal diffrence in weight and his strength and conditioning at 47 which has to change because weight change.Other than this stylistically it makes NO DIFFRENCE whatsoever what weight the fights at.Cotto`s style is SUPERIOR to Hattons thats a FACT not an observation.

    Weight really does make the difference in this one.

    Hatton at 140lbs. Cotto at 147lbs.

    At 140 Cotto is weight-drained and has serious stamina issues (or he did at the end). At 147 he is a fighting machine capable of punching down most of the guys that are put in front of him. Punching machine.

    Yes, I think I am a nice person, never will or would do harm to anyone and want to make friends, but I have done time - there's a line you cross you don't ever come back from, point of no return, somebody crossed it and so did I, went all the way to the end of the line. Most of my crew got washed up a long time ago, you can't strunt all the way, can't buck it forever, gotta stop somewhere, it simply catches up with you. I'm improved but most say that you don't get reformed, just run out of win. Cheers.

    Cotto is the better body puncher and would win via TKO over Hatton

    It;s all about stamina at 140 hatton would have far to much for cotto, at 147 cotto wouldn't be weight drained so he gets the advantage back. Also 7lbs makes a big difference when you stuggle to lose it and come in weight drained:patsch

    O you mean when he couldnt make the weight right?:patsch Why on earth would you compare one fighter with another one based on a handicap? There was a time when Cotto was trying to make 35 as Arum wanted him to get a world title quicker.Like i said already whatever weight under optimum conditions (yes when Cotto was able to make 140 as his had 90% of his fights there!) he still beats Hatton.

    140 is a no no because Cotto no way in hell can make that weight again. So this fight no way can be made in that weight so 147 Cotto by tko late.

    Cotto is stronger than Hatton.Cotto wins the battle of bodypunching attrition every time.
