Frank Warren says in his column today that regardless of whether he wins, loses, or draws against Mayweather, he will fight De La Hoya and then call it a day. Big money spinner, by the time it happens I'd make Hatton favourite.
De La Hoya would beat Hatton. The only concern for De La Hoya would be his stamina down the stretch as Hatton works well during ever round. De La Hoya loves come forward aggressors, and Hatton ain't outboxing him at long range. Those 3-4-5 punch bursts would bounce off Hatton's head all night long.
That was a fight you could anticipate. It will be huge in England. However, I think it would be stupid if Hatton retired in 2008, in his prime.
after floyd gets through him he won't have a choice but to retire no one in hatton's camp is thinking ricky can win, they want to cash out against two of the biggest names in boxing
This is from Warren's column, not fact. Warren's still a bit bitter about Hatton leaving him I think so he's trying to insinuate that he's only in it for the money. It's more of a cheap shot than anything else in my opinion.
Nothing really but Collazo is a B level fighter and hurt Hatton badly when he has KO record under 50 percent plus he deserved the decision most agree. DLH is superior in many aspects of boxing then Collazo like jabbing,body punching,power punching. He will rip Hattons face apart.
DLH is now a natural 154 pounder with far more boxing skill than Hatton ever had. Hatton will not be able to take his power punches all night, and his lack of defense will surely make him bleed. DLH KO6 Hatton
