    he should fight marquez first! if he can beat marquez he has a chance against the other top opposition in the LWW division. that division is stronger now than when hatton owned it imo.

    Good post. Agreed. But, I think Bradley is too good of an all around fighter for Hatton at this point. Much of his success was based on his punch/hold tactics, and for whatever reason, he hasn't been able to do that with much success in the recent past. Didnt have to against Malignaggi. Bradley boxes him to a pretty convincing decision at this point IMO.

    I've never said this to anyone on ESB, but in this post you have no idea what are you are talking about.

    we know how good bradley is, we don't know how much hatton has deteriorated. prime for prime it's a relatively easy hatton win, but now it could go either way, bradcleys not a very big puncher and if hatton can take his punches without too much problem, i can see hatton stopping in the middle rounds. bradley's although a good little fighter, seems to be very overrated lately, considering his (lack of) top class wins.

    Bradley ud-the fresher fighter at this point with better handspeed and more options in the ring.

    No, it would have moved him up a few places in the rankings and Floyd down but would not have made Hatton number 1

    I have a lot of respect for both fighters (though I'm honestly a bigger fan of Bradley) and I think Hatton doesn't get the respect he deserves on this forum.

    That said, at this point I think Bradley wins a decision. I think Bradley's power is actually pretty underrated. He doesn't finish opponents but he usually gets a knockdown in his fights. So I think he can rattle Hatton a little.

    In the end I think Bradley's quickness and movement are enough for a win against Hatton.

    Bradley by Wide UD or TKO/KO.

    You just said because of power. WTF? Idiot consider the other factors.

    Bradley is fresh, strong, tough fighter who would completely eradicate hatton now. Hatton's finished

    now it's debatable, but in his prime hatton walks him down and stops him.

    Im no so sure about that. Its hard to walk down a fighter with great foot and hand speed that doesnt get tired.
