    Is this a joke? The guy has no defense, no hand speed, and no boxing skills.

    That is so wrong it is untrue. Hatton has very good hand speed.

    Also he is not that bad a boxer as to say he has no boxing skill, it would suggest that you have not seen much of him. He outboxed Tackie and Phillips pretty easy. I am not saying that he is great but he does not have no skill.

    Still is a shite choice.

    Why can't you say Calzaghe with serious KO power? You said 'add one attribute to their existing style that would make them even more potent essentially and extremely hard to defeat', well, Calzaghe with serious grinding power with the same style qualifies right there.

    Wouldn't Pavlik fight differently if he were lightning fast? Of course, but the question you ask is add something 'theorectically'.

    The bias is unbelievable.

    And let me correct something, Pavlik with more handspeed is much more dangerous, but his defensive lapses and bad chin will still see him more defeats than Calzaghe with serious power behind his work.:yep

    Calzaghe throws arm punches in a flurry to set up harder shots, if you paid attention closely, you'd see this, he'll throw a few arm punches, then when a perfect opening happens, he sits down on a left hook, often times this has stunned fighters with solid chins, given that he'd now have 1 punch KO power, the sneaky shots he'd land in his normal blaze would now be crushing finishers.

    Plus his body work is precise, it'd now be become devastating, as would his straight left(which is one of the harder shots, not an arm punch).

    His style wouldn't change, he used to hit a lot harder when he was younger, enough to hurt and stop guys with good or better chins, yet he fought the same, a volume of harder work was there instead of a volume of softer work due to hand problems.

    I was gunna say Trinidad with footwork, but what i mean is the abillity to cut off the ring, something he never learned to do at the highest level.
