Ah yes....Hattons weak chin For the record hater Corrales has been tko'd by Mayweather aswell, getting knocked down five times in the process. Corrales has been stopped and dropped more times than Wicky (as you call him). As for Hatton v Corrales.....I think Hatton would be too quick and relentless. Chico wouldnt be able to match him for strength over the 12 rounds and Hattons body punches would probably take their toll over the 12round course. Although Chico has a big punch i think he would be able to hurt Hatton but Hatton has a good chin, to ride out the tough periods.
Indeed they are. But thats poor logic. Corrales is/was a slugger. Hatton is a slugger. Corrales was a superior puncher to Hatton and may have had better recuperative powers than Ricky in my estimation. Slugger vs slugger is a simple equation. Stylistically a prime Witter has Hattons number. FW and Hatton were aware of that. Hence why the fight never happened.
This isn't a P4P match. So Hatton's bigger, stronger, hits harder and has a better chin. And he has a long body to aim for.
As expected, Corrales' becomes a better fighter cause he's brown bread. A 26 year old Hatton wins this easily. Hatton gets underneath Corrales, crowds and suffocates his work and takes whatever Corrales dishes out - which by the way wouldn't be as powerful as Tzyu. Hatton then pounds at the body and stops him in the mid to late rounds. Corrales was a GOOD figher but stylistically this fight is all wrong for him. He was a tall guy who fought on INSIDE -didn't even use his reach or a jab. Disaster against Hatton. Maybe Chico has a chance against this faded version of Hatton. Maybe.
Couldn't see it myself. I think the Hatton of the Tszyu fight murders any Witter that ever lived. Witter would have four rounds to get a stoppage, otherwise if he is forced to work at Hatton's pace he'd get run out of the ring. So that leaves an early stoppage win as his only real option. Possible, but not likely when you consider Hatton absorbed shots from bigger punchers just fine and Witter's KOs suddenly dried up as sooon as he fought anyone who could do more than pull their shorts up. Hatton v Chico would be a *******, I'd probably favour the Hitman to work him over to the body and break down his resistance, but Chico would definitely have a shot.
