besides Witter and Torres, this is the one other possible Ricky fight I would pay to see, who do you guys have winning and why?
Juan Diaz would knock Hatton out. Hatton is more of a wrestler.... Diaz is a boxer. I could see Hatton losing points for holding. Juaz Diaz by KO or an easy UD. Hatton is so overrated. Did he even throw a combo against Floyd? All I can remember about Hatton is all the grappling he was doing. Juan Diaz wins in the boxing ring. Ricky Hatton wins in a UFC cage.
Juan Diaz is hardly a KO merchant at 135. He ain't gonna KO Hatton at 140, no way. Hatton wins, late TKO or UD.
im starting not to be a fan of hatton for ducking witter. but no way does Babybul ko hatton is see hatton beating the **** out of diaz i say ko in 9
Diaz by UD or late round stoppage. Facts: Hatton tires out in the last rounds. around the 9th or 10th. Hattons chin is not the best. Look at Collazo. He is very feather fisted and almost knocked Hatton out. Diaz is a much better fighter all around. Hatton does poses more power. Diaz has a very good chin. The only way i see Hatton winning is catching Juan Diaz early on in the fight. Within the first 2 rounds. If he cant knock him out then Diaz will just keep fighting at a pace that Hatton can not keep up with and will be wore out. Dont say Diaz does not have power. He has enough to knock you out especially with his work rate and underrated defense.
This would be a great fu@king fight. I think Ricky would take this one because he does really well with natural 140lb and 135lb who move up. Since they both hold like wrestling it should be title "Wrestle Mania"
Hatton KO5. No contest, Hatton is elite. Too much strength and power at 140, and his stamina is still better than Juan. Even the older Kostya Hatton fought would still KO Juan inside 3 rounds.
I think it would be unfair to say Collazo was feather fisted - still has almost 50% KO ratio which ain't all that bad, and face it Hatton was hardly a moving target in that last round! I think this would be a cracking fight, and would like to see it. I would have Hatton to win UD or late KO, nobody at 140 has ever gotten close to beating him in truth, Tszyu probably came closest.
baby bull looks a lil pudgi at 135 not sure weight gain willdo him any good. i would have to say hatton on this one.
Hattons work rate has always been fantastic. It would be a good fight for both to take and Hatton to win by late ko.
i think diaz could take hatton. the booze and excess eating has destroyed hatton thus making him more of wrestler thes days than a boxer
