    Very very ironic, and what is Hatton so, the man who looked so great against taxi drivers like Lazcona, Urango, Mausa and Collazo?

    PS- neither are 'frauds' in my eyes

    None of the his last 2 fights have impressed me, not since N'Dou 1 have i seen that spark

    Yet again i never really saw the Hatton spark, at least not since '05

    Hence its a close fight..

    Maybe most of the 80% who voted for a Hatton win think it will be a close fight too, but that Hatton will win?

    I'm leaning towards PM winning on points. It entirely depends on what Hatton has left and what Mayweather has done with him. But I do think he has slipped considerably and Malignaggi will have trouble, no doubt, but will do enough to ensure victory. I'm really not sure, Ricky has the hunger to do this much longer. He was outright dreadful in the Lazcano fight. He needed the ref to step in and save him from being sparked out. He's talking about a Pacman/ODLH fight already which means he just wants another big payday. Who knows though, maybe Mayweather has worked wonders with him and Malignggi is not as tough and good as we think.

    I voted for Hatton UD and did the same in the prediction thing.
    The fight pretty much went the way I expected but Paulie was even worse than I believed before the fight.

    Hatton UD was a fair result, Paulie couldn't deal with Hatton and was never going to win but I thought he could have stuck it out for a points loss if the corner hadn't have pulled him out.

    Agree. Paulie was outclassed badly though imo and it didn't shock me much to see him pulled out. He wasn't doing what his corner wanted and just wanted to hang on until the end of the fight.

    Easiest money ever! The lad is dire, he has a few "decent" attributes and thats about the highest praise he deserves, he was never ever a winner here.
