    Mantequilla = butter in Spanish.

    Why would anyone have the nickname butter?

    Smooth perhaps?

    Napoles outclasses Hatton and stops Ricky. Different leagues...

    Of course...one of the most appropriate and classy of all ring nick names...as good as "Sugar" was for Robinson and Leonard, and as appropriate in describing Jose's smooth as butter style.

    As much as I enjoyed watching Hatton,I reckon Napoles would pick him apart before stopping him. Too much all round ability and pinpoint punching.
