    Cotto
    Mosley
    Quintana

    or

    Tszyu
    Mayweather
    Pacquiao

    Which list is better? My one I think.

    He wont beat Hatton, Hatton is a sitting duck...

    Look at the scenario, Pacman, a southpaw who is fast, his foot mvement and agility looked better as he moved up in weight, he doesnt seem to mind fighters that come on to him....

    What has Hatton got that will touble Pacman?
    -A weak referee in Wembley maybe
    -A punchers chance as best (left hook to the body)....

    Hatton barely nows what a jab is still, and doesnt throw enough to be classed a quality agressive 'come forward' type fighter

    He will be caught alot when he goes to hug Pacman after throwing himself...

    Its worse than a bad matchup for Hatton in styles and his fans dont realise it...

    Pacman will cut him early with sharp punches and stop him, probably.

    Why don't they fight Hatton at 140 if it's simply a matter of who's 'good enough'?

    Ya, well i sppose keep saying Tszya, its Hattons one claim to fame and i honestly respect that win, great win.

    Mayweather?:lol: The ringpost night you mean??

    Pacquio??:lol: Hasnt even happened yet and your taking credit for it!

    I can hear bias Jim Watt now after 3 rounds which Pacman is at least 2-1 up
    'Hatton has won the first 3 rounds on my card'

    After 6....
    'Hes too fast, too good, and Ricky cant cope with the southpaw stance'

    After 9
    'Its coming to the stage where the corner really need to have a look at this, that cut is bad and his head movement is worse than ever'

    :lol::lol:

    Only reason he could get cut up is Pacman throws ALOT, sharp crisp punches...

    Not even much to do with Hattons resistance

    Look at Oscar

    Cotto can't, and is too big to make 140 so he has no choice but to fight at 147. Cotto has no choice.

    The point is....

    How can you accuse somebody of ducking Mosley, Cotto and QUINTANA.....but has fought Tszyu, Mayweather and (soon to be) Pacquiao? :nut

    The 3 fighters he has fought are a lot better than the 3 you named. P4P#1 for two of them and P4P#3 the other.

    And Jim Watt being biased towards Hatton? :rofl His constant negativity in Hatton fights pisses me off.

    Ya but with fighting the better fighters comes $$$$$$$$$, id ****ing fight Mayweather for whatever Hatton got for it

    Basically, even a QUINTANA is far better than a Lazcano, Urango etc, or Cotto at 140 when he was down there was a fight that the real fans would have liked, even at 147 its not a big step up for Hatton...

    Iv seen Watt give Hatton more rounds that anyone, then when he snaps out of it and realises that Hattons doing nothing he goes anit Ricky.
    He has a sence of realisation to be fair to him in the end

    I don't like the logic of 'I'd fight such and such for that money'. So would I. I'd fight all of Ricky's opponents for the money he got too. I'd have lost every one of them by first round KO, but I'd still fight them for the money.

    Is Quintana really better than Collazo? Not much in it for me.

    Did Cotto push for a fight with Hatton? Don't think he did. What Margarito did to Cotto suggests to me that Hatton would have handled the skeleton of Cotto that fought at 140.

    The 6ft 1 Kessler is a fighter who is unwilling/unable to move up just 7lbs and fight Dawson - over half a stone would affect a small 5ft 7 fighter like Hatton far more then a 6ft plus beast.

    I take it you say Kessler is limited as well, TFFP.:hey

    He has loads of possible fights at the moment, aside from Pac and Floyd: JMM, and Diaz are also keen, Bradley, Torres, Holt are also interesting fights. I think JMM said he will follow pac to 140 - the division is really hotting up.

    My point is Hatton v Cotto,Mosley,Witter,Quintana etc were all better fights he cold have taken instead of Lazcona/Urango/Maussa/Collazo

    Look at it as 3 tiers (classed by money rewards and ability you muppet)

    Tier 1
    De La Hoya
    Hatton
    Mayweather
    Pacman

    ALL big money fighters, anyone will take a fight against these because of the reward

    Tier 2 (Opponents Hatton could have fought for the real boxing fans to prove himself, average Hatton fan may not know these names)
    Malignaggi (done that)
    Witter
    Bradley
    Cotto
    Mosley
    Quintana
    JMM
    Judah


    Tier 3 (The who are they group? for benefits of Sky bull**** promotions and Hatton fans)
    Urango
    Collazo
    Luzocade


    Basically ,the only difference between Tier 2 & 3 is the quality of opposition, the Hatton fans wont know who they are watching either way but the real fans will and thats a bit dissapointing that we haven't seen Hatton v more of them less money more risk, more respect type fights

    Hard to understand for you maybe, thats ok
