    Upset, and big.
    That's why I am surprised Hatton took this bout, he will very probably lose (on T/KO also) just now he's on a roll.
    He'd better have another EBU defence, with maybe an alphabelt shot in the near future, than be fed to an up and coming (super)star like Canelo.

    That said... I like the fight! Bring it on :bbb

    The money must've talked.

    That, or Hatton is really trying to show, he will not stay in his bro's shadow. Which I respect big time.

    And yea, if Hatton wins, it would probably be front runner for upset of the year at that point.

    Big upset since everybody thinks confidently that Alvarez will win.

    However, if I ranked my top ten at 147, Hatton would be 8-10 (Mayweather, Pacquiao, Berto, Mosley, Clottey, Senchenko, Zaveck). So in that regard...

    With 36 fights already at the age of 20. Alvarez being washed up by 28 is not out of the question. However that is 8 years from now, and in that time he can win some world championships and have an outstanding career. It is also posible that he will still be fighting at a very high level at 28 and older. We will have to wait and see.

    I'd say it's about the same level as Williams Quintana...or Caballero/Litzao
