Then who should he face next.. and what are peoples thoughts on the outcome.. I'de like to see Hatton v Cotto..
i think ricky will win,id LOVE to see hatton/cotto,but i think ricky&oscar have agreed verbally at least to fight each other next year regardless&from what ive read the early plan is that it'll take place at a football stadium in the us around may,but its just talk at the min&alot can happen yet,personally for his next fight i think the winner of cotto/mosley is a natural
I can't see any significance to Hatton/De La Hoya at all. Ricky is the 140 king pin and Oscar's been fighting at atleast 154, and I can't see Oscar coming down no further than that IMO. It would simply be an exhibition that's all for the $$$.
I think that he'll face De la Hoya in Wembley in 2008. Doesn't matter if he wins or loses against Mayweather.
they were going for wembley but i read its more likely to be held in the states because the weathers more reliable.
DLH will not face Hatton if he loses. But if Hatton, wins, he'll fight DLH then retire. PBF TKO8 Hatton.
Correcto. Win or lose Hatton is still box office and De la Hoya believes Hatton will leave the ring with his reputation intact even in defeat and also thats why he chose wembley because Hatton would sell it out. I believe Hatton would do Dela Hoya at 147- Oscars in serious decline and would need to ko Hatton early on.
IF Hatton were to beat Mayweather------ then this forum would no longer be East Side Boxing---it would turn into --"Mayweather Excuse Alley"
Hatton - Cotto would be one exciting ass fight.. I'd predict multiple broken ribs.. Kind of weird, you would want to say Hatton could get a TKO early, cause hes on fire as soon as the bell rings where Cotto likes to geth is rhythm going. On the other hand, you want to say Cotto would get to Hatton and TKO him late.. Im one of the few who would take Hatton in this fight though...call me crazy ::bolt
