    Remember guys, anyone who doesn't agree with Scura is a rookie or a newb and not a 'real boxing fan'

    Dont compare fights with the same opponent. Ortiz stopped him in one round.

    the green, weight drained cotto doesn't beat hatton, but any post malignaggi cotto destroys hatton, catch weight or not

    whats the need for a catchweight... last time I check hatton goes pretty heavy in the ring and has fought at 147 though losing to mayweather and a questionable decision over Collazo... in a smart move in which I dont disagree its more beneficial for Hatton to be fighting at 140, stay away from 147...

    1) HAtton will not KO Malignaggi
    2)Cotto obliterates Hatton.
    3)it may happen because Cotto knows this... as odd as it sounds Hatton may be used as a "tune up" for Cotto. Think about it- Hatton can't slip a single punch and Cotto has devestating power to the body and head. Hatton would go to sleep mighty quick.
    4) Hatton has a big enough portion on his plate in Malignaggi. He certainly is not the cut and dry victor of this fight. In fact- given their styles, I say Malignaggi has a solid chance of picking up right where floyd left off. Only difference is, PM will be less inclined to exchange than PBF and Collazo are. Hatton has his worst fights against fleetfooted opponents, and in that category, Malignaggi is second to none. Hit and don't be hit - Malignaggi UD.

    Hard to hit? No. Hard to hit flush, Yes. and the ones that do get through seem to be shrugged off by his good chin.
