    Cotto looked ill at the weigh in, I remember the photos being posted on here about six months ago.

    I think Hatton would have blown that Cotto away in about three, a healthy version of Cotto at 140 would have been a different proposition but same outcome (late stoppage) :deal

    You just seem like a hater!

    Wow, great. Guess what, Pavlik probably beats Joe Calzaghe at 160. Hell, I'm pretty sure Haye would have beaten Klitschko easily at cruiserweight.

    Let's just be sensible, Cotto would have whooped his ass when he made the 140 limit in a reasonable state. And he'd whoop his ass again at the only weight they could reasonably make the fight now.

    Cotto wil never fight at 140 again and if they fight at 147 he stops Hatton, probably quicker than Floyd did as he is stronger and punches harder.

    Cotto wins by KO in any weight class.

    JC has never fought at 160 so your argument is spurious and only made to back up your weak argument.

    Hatton doesnt have the chin and defense to beat Cotto theres no way Hatton takes the kind of shots Margo took coming in.
    his only chance would be if this fight was in England like the Tzsyu fight when he can grab and grab and grab some more.

    Instead of relying on the old "hater" routine, try explaining the areas which Hatton actually has an advantage stylistically.

    Cotto is a better boxer and actually has a jab. Cotto can counter effectively as we've seen if he chooses to stand off Hatton and follow the blueprint that causes Hatton problems.

    He's bigger and punches harder than Hatton if Hatton wants to try his clinching **** and inside work. Weights don't come into it, when they are both in any sort of condition Cotto wins.

    Cotto would simply destroy Hatton and I actually hope he gets a chance to do it !! I predicted Margarito by TKO11 exactly as it happened and if Hatton vs Cotto is made, then it's Cotto TKO7 ladies and gentlemen !!!

    Even after his huge loss to Margo- Cotto wins via KO inside of 6.

    I don't think thats clear cut, a few years ago at 140 i'd have favoured Hatton, would have been great to see.

    At 147 Cotto obviously.
