    Would never happen, Hatton stands next to zero chance if this ever happened (which it won't).

    I've not seen anyone really repel Margarito, much less put a dent in him

    Given Hatton's average power, declining resistance, and the huge size difference, this wouldn't really be a contest at all

    It won't happen anyway

    It's Paulie then Oscar / Pacman I reckon, if he gets past Paulie that is. And I think he has to look decent doing it too to secure the big fight.

    Won't Oscar be way too big for him though? I can't see him standing much chance against anyone at 147 and above because of the sheer size difference mainly and he's never looked good above 140. Anyway, from the Lazcano fight Hatton looks finished to me and I wouldn't be surprised to see him lose by UD in November.

    I think his constant weight problems in between fights are finally taking their toll even though he's only in his late 20's.

    Yeah I think Oscar would be too big... in fact I agree with every last part of your post

    But if Oscar can fight Pac he can fight Hatton

    I don't agree with the jumping about weight classes by the way, but these marquee names are obsessed with it

    By constantly fighting each other they can put off being succeeded by the younger talent for a while

    the difference between hatton and de la hoya standing next to each other discussing tactics for the mayweather fight was immense.

    one look like a big latino pop star love god

    the other quite frankly looked like a little midget

    if they met in the ring all the physical advantages are with Oscar
