Floyd was'nt even looking for the KO against Hatton but still got it,imagine what Cotto would do to him at 147.
That not why he was KO'd though. He was hit with that same hook repeatedly throughout the fight. Lead rights,Jabs to the body, hitting air and rapier like counters all wore hatton out. All of this led to him getting KO'd
Fight will never happen. Hatton wont go up to 147 to get a beating, Dont think Cotto would cut down to 140 when hes a natural welter.
Facts: Hatton haven't fought a boxer/slugger that brings the heat like Cotto. Hatton is struggling at 147.Only 2 fights at 147, both are loses. Hatton cuts too easily. Even Gomez will kick Hatton's ass at 147. :deal
I'm sorry to say, but this will only be "legitimate" after we see the HBO Countdown or 24/7. However, when the bell rings this will be as one sided as it gets for Cotto.
Far out - Cotto landing those accurate sharp shots on Hatton? KO 4. Hatton's "pressure" after a Margarito fight would feel like a light sparring session!
Mismatch. Hatton/Gomez or Hatton/CollazoII would be more competitive fights if Hatton ever wants to venture into the WW division agin.
