IF he can get a referee that won't let Hatton cockwrestle him all night...Malignaggi's handspeed and combos against Ndou were very impressive, and he could do the same thing to Hatton and catch him on the way in with quick combos...watch Hatton duck Malignaggi...:deal
I think a Malignaggi-Hatton fight would be very competitive, and I'd give Pauli a solid shot at scoring the upset.
They could have the fight in brooklyn with lou dibella as the ref, atlas, kellerman, and clancey as the judges and paulie would still lose. Cause the fight won't go the distance. Cotto was too drained to finish off hedgehog, but hatton has plenty of steam. Ricky stops him in 8 or less.
Have you ever considered the fact that in writing bull**** like this you're wasting away the keys on a perfectly good keyboard!
Of course Hatton will DUCK Malignaggi, He's not gonna fight a boxer that moves around.. He's gonna fight someone that stands right in front of him.
I say this is a close fight. Paulie is one tough kid with a ton of speed who can outbox anybody at 140, but I think Hatton's harder punches and pressure would see him through to a close decision.
hey if you wanna suck Hatton's nutz go ahead, and he'll probably like it looking at the way he fights...:hi: you Brits are the only ones excited about Huggin Hatton...his style sucks ass, and Malignaggi has the speed/tools to exploit him so live with it...
Hatton will move up next, he only wants the biggest fights and he has got to go back up to Welterweight to make this happen. Whether this is the right move is another matter ... For what its worth I think Ricky will grind down Malignaggi and will win on points, but will have to win most of the last 5 rounds to do so.
Live with what moron? Paulie hasn't beaten anyone that's even in the same universe of class as hatton. Hatton is just as fast and more powerful than hedgehog. So, how does pitterpat paulie keep hatton off of him when fighters much better couldn't do it? Hmmmmmmmmmm????
N'dou was also much stronger than Malignaggi, and he failed to win a rd...learn something about boxing and then i might fancy a real debate with you...
Paulie couldn't beat eggs, if Zab wasn't from Brooklyn no one would give a **** the same goes for Paulie, if Hatton was a plodder i could see your point but pressure fighters traditionally do better against slick boxers than plodding bangers, which is why Hatton would do a better number on Paulie than Cotto did.
