malignaggi will win this, hattons confidence is gone outta here thanks to floyd.. dont let him fool ya...
I dnt c hatton stopping malignaggi on points...cotto couldnt stop him, and hatton looked bad and cudnt flatten lazcano (an easier opponent) his last match
I was just messing with u mang ..I mean it will be a very close and competetive fight ..Malinaggi will have his moments but Hatton will edge him out ..I will say this though this has snooze fest written all over it ..
I reckon its all down to how much Hatton has left. He looked like **** in his last fight, whats to say he wont look worse against a decent fighter like Malignaggi?
My prediction is hatton walking through mallinaggi punches and scoring a UD, but a body knockout could be a possibilty due to mallinaggi body not being up to scratch see NDou rematch.
I worry about Ricky in this one. I thought he was pretty awful v Lazcano, so so easy to hit. I think his confidence is gone after the manner of the Mayweather defeat. Ricky of 2005-7 walks through Malignaggi. Now, I'm not so sure...
Agreed, he learnt nothing from the Mayweather fight and this assignment is going to be tougher than it would have been two years ago.
This is pretty simple the Paulie that's showed up in his last two fights has little chance of beating any version of Hatton. The Paulie that lost to Cotto and won the belt has a good chance of beating any post Tszu version of Hatton. My guess is that we will see something in the middle. Which should make for an interesting fight.
I was leaning toward Malignaggi ... but i'm not going to go with him ... Hatton is too strong and will man handle him ... Hatton by late rounds TKO --
People need to stop with the "this version of this fighter does this" crap. Paulie has been the same fighter a while now. Here's Paulie's offensive gameplan(hasn't changed in the longest); jab,jab,jab,jab,jab,jab,jab, straight right that has no power, jab,jab,jab,jab,jab,jab,half ass straight right,jab,jab,jab.. you get the picture. Tell me, what has changed about Paulie? How is the current Paulie different then the Paulie that got **** beaten out of him against Cotto, or beat C level N'Dou? Did he hit harder? Did he have a more varied offense? Was he faster? Was his defense better?
