THis is a stupid thread there is no way Hatton has a chance against Cotto at 147. I still see Cotto beating Hatton at 140 although Cotto will not go down in weight to fight Hatton. Remember how hurt he was by those body shots Urango threw at HAtton. Yea well Im sure Cotto hits harder to the body than Urango.
Why do you say he is better, tell me the superior boxing skills he has over C otto, besides being better at hugging.Don't get me wrong Hatton is a great fighter for some reason he is undefeated but Cotto has a better jab, very precise and fast combos, can switch stances, when he fights moving he has very good ring movement and is great at counterpunching, he is great at cutting the ring he doesn't just follow you around. In the overall skills department he is way better.When you answer back you could answer like a gentleman not just saying stupid things like the one above. Anyway it would be a great fight, hope they can get it done somehow.
Hatton could beat any Jr. Welterweight on any given day but, as it stands, I don't see him beat at least 6 (maybe 7) of the top 10 Welterweights, i.e. Mayweather, Cotto, Williams, Mosley, Margarito, Cintron, (Clottey).
Hatton IS a WW. He's SUPPOSED to be there. He WANTS to be there. This will be his 2ND FIGHT there. Stop making excuses for him.
