    This would have been horrible and compelling viewing.

    Who takes it?

    Zivic by a country mile.

    Hatton is as tough as a butcher's block but he is a little crude. Zivic was a briliant ring strategist and always found a strategy to make life difficult for his opponents.

    Hatton would be a simple problem to solve.

    In the light of recent events, I thought this one may be worth a bump.

    Zivic,Fritzie would bust up Hatton,give him the head ,laces,the wayward thumb,Ricky cuts and marks up Zivic was a master at the naughty stuff,and he would use his full repertoire against the Hit Man,Zivic by late stoppage via cuts.

    Prety much.

    Zivic is one of the most forensic fighters ever to lace em up. He studied his oponents meticulously and always seemed to come up with a plan to frustrate them.

    Henry Armstrong would have had no easy time with Zivic on the best night he ever saw.

    Agreed.

    He is one fighter that I really got it wrong with. I did not think early in his career that he would impress much when he stepped up against the best in the world.

    Never underestimat the Manchester skull.

    Hatton may as well stay home.

    With Dave Parriss as ref, this would be the dirtiest boxing match ever. Anyway, Zivic by ko in 9.
