    Catterall isn't lasting in this stronger era at 140, he will be a gatekeeper soon

    Most likely Hitchins but hopefully it never happens due to how mind-numbing it would be

    Catterall is a weird one. I think he losses to most of the top guys in the division, including Hitchins, but I think he beats Teo. Teo might beat everyone else (him and Hitchins are the best) but I think Catterall is a horrible style match up for him.

    Catterall had an off night in his last fight but it was still close.

    the usual Catterall is sharp as ****, I think he'd beat Hitchins.

    No dude, Catteralls trash workrate is what lost him the Barboza fight. He was down against an old Prograis for some time

    Catterall had an off night, it happens. He'd been on a consistent and impressive run of form from the Taylor 1 robbery to the Prograis fight.

    And that's clearly untrue about the Prograis fight. The judges scorecards at the time of the stoppage were 117-108 & 116-109 x2 for Catterall.

    Those scorecards were trash. Prograis was old and lighting Catterall up. Catterall always had a low workrate, this is nothing new. Hitchins smokes him Catterall isn't aggressive enough and I used to be a big fan of jack

    Catterall has been a pro for longer than Prograis lol, and Prograis was WBC champion the year previously

    He was 35,. ..Usyk 38, Crawford, 37, Alvarez 34, Beterbiev 40, Bivol 34, Inoue 32 =the best P4P fighters in the sport .

    Prograis also retired temporarily and pillowfisted Haney could flatten him. Catterall is not that good

    Nah, he’s more of a counter puncher. Boxers will almost always make easy work out of counter punchers.

    I agree with @Bigplatts , I could see Cat giving Teo absolute fits just stylistically but a style like Hitchins would be tough for Cat to win.

    Worst match up imaginable: Devin Haney vs Jack Catterall.

    I would say Scull but I assume no promoter would ever pay him to get in a ring again.
