    Hard to say,you know it might be the 122 unification as Hatton vs Paulie don't have but the Ring belt(I don't count the bogus IBO)

    Moltor vs Cabellero

    I think Paulie is gonna slap Ricky around, so it'll be one sided.

    Molitor vs Cabarello simply has more potential and meaning then a Hatton fight at this point in time, although Paulie vs Hatton should be exciting unless Hatton is really exposed.

    PM - Hatton is a good match but Hattons isnt what he was. I think Molitor - Caberllero is a slight better fight. Molitor is gonna put on a great performance.

    Both are equally good in my view.

    Molitor-Caballero for me. A fight more meaningful and more evenly matched. Hope Molitor pulls out a UD on dirty Caballero.

    Btw, anybody knows the undrcard of both fights?

    Molitor vs Caballero.The winner of this deserves Vazquez and what a fight that would be.

    Both are good matchups but i'm more exited about Molitor getting his "breaking out" fight.

    i'd count fighting for the ring belt more meaniful than a unification of alphabet belts.

    It's about the match-ups too,Hatton is on a slide.

    he's the #1 at 140 fighting the #2, we don't know if hatton is on the slide yet, you can't tell that from 1 fight, especially a fight he won easily (not counting the pbf fight). but if he wasn't on the slide hatton wins this relatively easily, it's the fact he may be, that makes this matchup better.

    You can see he is on a slide from the Collazo and Urango fights too,more so in the Lazcano fight.He is definetely on the slide.The 122 fight just seems more intriguing to me...that doesn't mean I won't enjoy Hatton vs Malignaggi.

    I think the general consensus is that Molitor-Caballero is the better match-up and I also feel the same way. Promises way more action in my eyes, more evenly-matched and both guys seem really hungry to reach that ELITE level.

    Any fight with Malignaggi promises to be not much of a fight, he's a great boxer but no power, no fun and I feel like Hatton will out class him with his pressure. Look how much pressure he put on Floyd, while it wasn't really effective pressure, Floyd is bigger, better and waaay more skilled then Malignaggi! I think we're gonna see some better defense out of Hatton because of Mayweather Sr, I'm not talking about completely revolutionized Hatton busting out the shoulder roll or anything, but I think he'll do a better job of slipping jabs and Malignaggi's only chance of winning in my eyes is to keep Hatton off him with the jab the whole fight.
