    Certainly a censational KO against Castillo, but the drama doesnt take away from the fact that Casttillo was hopelessly shot and unmotivated. The Urango win was a good outing I'll admit, but Hatton would be expected to win that.

    the only problem with this fight is that Paulie has no power. If he had a higher KO rate, he would be more main stream than he is right now. KO's sell. Hatton should be able to maul and wrestle paulie until he's good and tired.

    It would be a reasonable win, mind you the yanks would say paulie was rubbish and it means noting like they always do

    How many 'elite' fighters do you consider Hatton to have beat? Not names, elite fighters?

    Yah it took hatton over 40 fights to get to zoo. While Paulie fights live fighters. hatton was over protected forever. Paulie has the balls to make fights.

    Thats the difference.

    Mitchel was a slickster, Tszyu didn't require much ring fitness to dispatch of him. Hatton is a pressure fighter, and Tszyu at 35 was ill'equipped to handle a fighter like him.

    Anyway, say Tszyu is one - who else is there for Hatton? List gets pretty thin after him...........
