    That wasn't an analysis you made. You just posted a video.

    Malignaggi- Decent fighter. In my opinion Drew in his last fight with Ngoudju(lost some nice Vcash on that). Hatton is certainly above Ngoudju's level so he should beat him.
    Witter- I think Witter beats Hatton. Too slick. Hatton would have trouble with that.
    Torres- Probably the worst of the 3 but he is got a hell of a punch and Hattons chin is not the greatest. Good but not great. If Hatton gets caught too much Torres could go on to finish him off.

    None of these guys are ranked anywhere near the top 20 p4p. That tells you the division is not so great.

    Which is an opinion based on nothing really. Just the hopes of a 14yo who just got into boxing.

    Yes the Judah that technically knocked PBF down. The same one who many believe beat Floyd the first 4-5 rounds. But as usual Zab fell apart.
    Cotto knocked his ass out.
    Mosley. Hell he is in the top 3 WW right now. The most talented division in boxing right now. Put your Hatton boy in with Mosley and you get a complete destruction of Hatton.

    Cotto is proven. PBF beats him its because PBF is a hell of a fighter. I like both fighters. There can be no loser in that fight. both are proven and tested champs.

    WHat do you base that prediction on? Cotto is ten times the boxer Gatti is, and hits a lot harder. Not to mention, he has defense, Gatti's defense is his chin. Cotto puts punches together myuch better then Gatti does as well.

    So, what are you basing that on other then being a huge Mayweather Jr. fan?

    This is where your 'analysis' comes in handy.:deal

    Actually, people believe Zab took 3 of the 1st 4 rounds and Zab did not fall apart because of his mentality, but because Floyd started putting pressure on him. And Zab had Cotto hurt in the 1st down and Cotto most likely goes down before he decides to low blow him. And then a few rounds later Zab has Cotto hurt again and what does Cotto do? Goes low on Judah again. That takes alot out of a fighter.

    Yes, it does. Cotto got hit over 50% of the time in his last time against Shane and that sets up perect for Floyd sinc Floyd isn't a jab kinda man. He will be able to land that straight right hand along with his left hook and will counter Cotto like crazy IMO.

    Er...no. FM can land high percentage against Cotto but Cotto WILL make FM fight very cautiously with those crunching body blows he brings. High percentage does not mean high output as Floyd WILL run and it would be very far from what Floyd did to a fighter like Gatti.

    Question, do you really believe Floyd would call Cotto a "C class fighter"?:think

    Hmm Mosley is not a jabbing type of man either. Actually Mosley very rarely uses an effective jab.
    Mosley has more power than PBF. This you should know! Mosley landed beatiful shots on Cotto and never once wobbled him. How is PBF going to??
    And your posts about Zab. Zab breaks down mentally with every tough opponent. Thats some more common knowledge to you.
    You seriously are 14 arent you? and you more than likely just got into boxing from the 24-7 series or MTV cribs.
