Cotto vs Hatton = slaughter, not slugfest

In MY eyes???? no scurla... in REALITY, cotto is the bigger man. I brought up hattons height (which again... IS an inch SHORTER then the VERY SHORT cotto) to highlight the obvious, that hatton is a midget at 147.

Now... if he was so stout and stocky that he PHYSICALLY was a 147lber, evident in the fact that he CAN NOT make 140lbs... then i would have no case, as IS the case with miguel cotto.

but as is, in reality, cotto IS the larger man NOT because hes an inch taller (though when talking about the shortest fighter at 147lbs being only an inch taller then the subject at hand, ricky hatton, and therefore ricky should be able to do it too is a bit stupid) as an excuse to how cotto somehow has to deal with the same size adversity is negated entirely by the fact that cottos BODY SIZE makes up for that, not JUST in height, but because of his physical dimensions as well.

again, cotto IS bigger... if he WASNT bigger, he could MAKE 140lbs.

and again, i pointed out hattons height to highlight the FACT that he is a MIDGET at 147lbs

you bringing up cottos height as evidence to point to someone who is dealing with the same adversity is nulled due to cottos size as a man PERIOD. cant even compare.... not to mention the fact that cotto is taller, but also has longer reach, and is like i pointed out above just an all around bigger man.

lets not forget that cotto HIMSELF, is not large for WW. You are right when you say it is indeed a credit to cotto that he can be as dominant as he is, but then again, he is a LEGIT 147lber... 2 of his 5 wins have come against fighters who started below 147 in the first place, and the largest guy he HAS fought at welterweight is SHANE MOSLEY... so cotto himself hasnt had to really deal with the adversity of fighting a big WW.

Let alone ricky doing it.

i dont even understand what your saying right here... all the dross prior to hattons loss to zoo? hatton IS a monster at 140, he doesnt NEED a comeback fight, im saying im not BITCHING because hes taking one after getting knocked out.

dont mis understand what im saying, i DO think cotto is a better fighter then hatton, and you cant find in the last two years where i have said otherwise, my beef is MAINLY with the fact that you and many other biased people hold the fact that ricky IS TOO SMALL like i have ALREADY pointed out to fight the large, elite WW's, against him AS A FIGHTER... when thats WRONG, because thats NOT HIS WEIGHT CLASS.

you try to bring up other fighters that started low and did it (which i have already countered) when ignoring the fact that in BOTH height, reach, AND dimensions, they are bigger then hatton AND have COMPLETELY differant, less physical styles to help them be effective. (outside cotto)

it is not rocket science to understand that a toe to toe, physical, mauling style of fighting like ricky hatton is not going to be as effective against a larger, stronger opponent, then a slick, boxing, countering, ect, style is. Thats rickys style, and he is a moster at against the only fighters that count, fighters his own size.

Please... can we cut it with the whole 'bully' thing?? Fighters are men, are warriors that step in the ring to inflict damage on eachother, this whole 'this fighter is a bully' thing is so stupid. Hatton has already beat guys stronger then him, as imo collazo showed he was stronger or at least as strong as hatton, and hatton won that fight, however close it may have been.

 

dude i cant keep doing this with you.

Your trying to compare TYSON and ROY ****ING JONES's success (ALL TIME GREATS) against larger fighters and trying, in some way, to make the fact that hatton cant overcome those same adversities and hold it AGAINST him???????

ITS MIKE TYSON AND ROY JONES dude!!! come on scurla....

and honestly, GO LOOK at the actual height, reach, and then look at the PHYSICAL DIMENSIONS of the fighters roy jones faced, i will bet you anything that outside of ruiz, who is obviously a much larger man then roy, roy didnt have the height, reach and dimension differances between his opponents that ricky would have against the likes of margarito, williams, cintron,

also....

ITS ROY JONES

im sorry man, im done.... ive said all i can say, it is BEYOND obvious how irrationally biased and blind you are on this subject for whatever reason. If you really think hatton lost all of a sudden because a 'bigger guy punched back' then theres nothing i can say. In the world of reality, if your not a good ****ing fighter, your not gonna make it far or last long in this brutal sport. You are really underselling how hard it is to be a champion.

but im off... was good discussing with you though man :good
