    I reckon Buddy McGurt throwing in the towel vs Hatton was bull**** and that stoppage shouldn't really be given much credit because any other coach would have let that go the distance and Hatton would have won on points.

    Another Ref might have let Malinaggi go on but he was definitley in worse shape than he was vs hatton. On the other hand Style wise Mallinaggi is alot more difficult for Hatton than he is for Khan and so that makes Ricky's performance impressive as well.

    I'm edging towards Khan because his stoppage was alot more legitimate.

    Hatton. He won every round. Paulie made Khan miss with everything he threw for the first 7 rounds. He looked like a novice at first.

    Pauli is coming off one of his best wins and has been very happy with his new trainer. Khan beating him in his backyard and with the above stats is more impressive imo.

    Hatton was more dominant throughout, but it was scruffy, so he didn't put as much punishment on Paulie as Khan did

    Probably fairly even

    Hatton fought the worst version of Paulie. Paulie just came of a career win before the Khan defeat.

    Both equal, when the variables are taken into account.

    I'd have to go with Khan's win to be honest.

    I dont really like Khan that much, but was impressed with him last night.

    I think Hatton.

    If it wasn't for Paulie's constant holding the fight would have been over by the half way point.

    After the first round, the next ten were all one-sided and beyond debate.

    Khan was impressive no doubt, but I gave Paulie two and a share of another, and he was generally pretty competitive throughout barring the last couple.

    Wouldn't argue it either way though.

    Although disappointed, Malignaggi gave Khan the ultimate endorsement.

    "He's better than Ricky Hatton was," Malignaggi said

    Khan for me. Paulie was made to measure for Hatton.

    Not much between the two victories. Malinaggi means more to khan at this stage of his career. Than it did for Hatton. One thing that is clear, is that Paulie plain and simply isn't that good.

    What fight did you watch? Did you not see Paulie's head snap back regularly from the impressive Khan jabs?
