    Dulio Loi was a slick pressure fighter, i would love to see him fight pryor or whitaker. Dulio is the mystery man but with wins against eddie perkins and carlos ortiz, he cant be denied.

    There's no time in the history of the division that I don't think he'd be in the absolute elite.

    He would rule the 140lbs division, and even move up to 147 and rule it too in fact.

    Ricky Hatton beats Aaron Pyor. Whats you see is what you get with Pryor, which is a whole lot of aggression and workrate and a decent dig, but not an intelligent boxing brain. I see Pryor knocking Rees out easy, having a war with Torres before TKOing him late, and over powering and out working Junior Witter over 12. Hatton is above the other title holders at 140. He can fight going forward, but can box on the back foot and use ring smarts aswel. Thats is what will get the better of Hawk.

    Ricky Hatton UD Aaron Pryor. :cool:

    There's not much to beat at the moment, i can't see why he couldn't dominate.

    Aaron would be dominate and alhtough i think he would beat him, he would have problems with Junior Witter's okward style. Hell, Witter even gave peak Judah fits.
