    At 147lbs for the title,who would have won if Hatton fought Baldomir after he defeated Gatti?

    Once again not a big fan of Ricky at this weight, nor of the match-up.

    Ricky should still be good enough to beat carlos...give me 116-112

    Hatton but Baldomir would have had some success, Urango did after all and Baldomir is very strong on the inside, where Ricky likes to fight, good at mid-range and a good bodypuncher, that's why Clottey kept headbutting him to stop him doing that and got DQ'ed. He isn't quite the hopeless fighter he's made out to be beating Judah on maybe an off night but also pummeling Gatti.

    He wouldn't shut Baldomir out like Mayweather and Forrest did,but he should be favoured to win a relatively clear decision.

    A one sided decision for Hatton.

    Hatton woudl win, no offense to Baldo, but Hattons in a different league
    very underrated nowadays. Although he fought a stupid fight against Pac, thinking he was the bigger man etc etc
