    I wouldn't be shocked if any of them lose but I went for Hatton.

    i agree entirely. i hope it works out for hatton, but i think this could be a big mistake. does hatton really have to do anything different to beat mallignagi?

    I can see why people voted for Haye, obviously, but just because he's in a more dangerous fight doesn't necessarily mean his chance of winning is worse than say...Hatton's, who is in a less dangerous fight, for sure, but...you never know...if he is faded enough or if he is asked to do something that doesn't work for him...and if that Malignaggi guy keeps the fight on the outside well enough...you never know. Saying that, I really, really hope Hatton KOs him.

    i think hatton.malignaggi has a chin and a good amount of skills.also hattons change of camp might do him som eproblems instead of solve them.

    haye was always over 200 pounds on the night of the fight so weight i dont think is an issue. barret may be bigger but has NEVER won a fight when he fought a real good fighter.

    Haye and Calzaghe's fights have been carefully picked so I doubt they will lose. I would say the same about Hatton but I can really see him losing this one. Froch is in a tough fight. It's hard to tell how good Froch is/can be and I haven't seen much of his opponent so he would seem the most likely to lose.

    Froch
    Hatton
    Haye
    Calzaghe

    The resounding answer is NO!

    For hatton to win this one, he has to do what he does best. & thats get inside, stick the head in, work the body & generally bully the metrosexual around & **** him up.

    If Ricky tries to do a Floyd Jnr & box the boxer though? I smell disaster.

    Now heres a question, does anyone else who has watched Hattons training sessions with Floyd snr get the impression Hatton cannot stand the guy?
    Cos I do!

    The quicker hatton gets rid of Mayweather snr the better. & when its a guy like me who doesnt exactly have much love for Hatton saying this, you know its serious!

    Who the hell advised Hatton to make this move anyway? & thats a serious question, cos I often think to myself who ****ed up so badly that they let old Floyd snr anywhere near Ricky...

    Cos NO-ONE deserves that old wifebeater foisted upon them... IMO.

    I think Hatton will beat Malignaggi whichever way he wants to be honest - he is SO overrated it is untrue.

    What style advantages does he have?

    Speed? - Not really
    Power? - :lol:
    Infighting? - Erm....... dial 999
    Heart? - Not really
    Chin? - About equal
