    ^^ I respect malignaggi a whole lot for the heart he showed in the cotto fight. Only if he had any real punching power, he could have really hurt cotto. He gave as much as he took so he doesn't need to be ashamed at all. Paulie is an overachiever and I like the guy. He would outbox the **** out of some caveman like Urango and decision him easily.

    LoL. Did you see those lefts Paulie were landing in the Hatton fight?
    If he had power it would've been PBF vs Hatton all over again.

    Yea man they were all lucky that Malignaggi had such brittle hands. Even if he had Lamont Peterson's power, he would have been a killer.

    Maybe if he had power Hatton might not have been willing to take them?

    LoL. I mean, Ricky had some head movement in that fight, but he was still lunging in, he just had more control. But all it takes is a good counter puncher with some decent power and Hatton is getting f_cked up. I cant believe that fool really wants to fight PBF again, even at 140 its a bad idea.

    Hatton has taken a lot of punches in his career, though he hasn't always been chinny. He's always been susceptible to taking a left hook whilst lunging in though, and Magee hurt him badly in the first round years back.

    But Hatton is a warrior, he hasn't got a china chin and he always fights on regardless. Being stopped by Floyd outside of your best weight isn't anything to be ashamed of.

    And nor it is shameful to be stopped by Pac at your best weight, which is inevitable.

    Actually it is pretty shameful if he were to get KTFO out by Pacman who started his career at 112. :deal

    And he should be ashamed for getting check hooked into the ringpost by Floyd who started his career at 130.. yea 10lbs below hatton's natural weight.

    Think before you swing on someone's nuts.

    LoL. When you talk all that smack on 24/7 and then get KO'd, and then after that the fighter who KO's you calls out the specific name of the fighter, that is embarrassing.

    I think Urango and Bradley are the too best junior welterweights out there today, both on their best days could upset Hatton IMO. Juan has improved a lot since he and Hatton fought, and in fact i think he only had about 15 fights at the time. I would definitely favor Bradley over Ricky either way.

    :roll:

    Hatton can't take a punch like he used to anymore. And giving the man credit for him being the ONLY man to make Cotto taste canvas (A fight he took on a two week notice)...You'd still like to think Hatton, a fighter you have your mouth tightly gripped around his balls, would beat Torres easier :rofl

    No man...Torres is much more versatile. He has effective body punching, great power, AND ACTUALLY HAS A JAB!

    Urango throws nothing but Monsterous hooks all day. With the occasional uppercut. If anything Urango is a poor man's Jeff Lacy.

    Torres would give Hatton fits, if he can punch his way through a slick boxer in Holt. He can give a smother-brawler like Hatton all sorts of trouble considering he has the shittiest reach.

    It's not hard to figure out how to beat Urango. Ngoudjo would've pulled it off if his trainer was present. The clinching game plan would've worked superb

    You're on Hattons nuts because you're trying to act like being KTFO and schooled is no big deal. You're probably one of the dudes that voted Hatton as a HOF & ATG!
