    Genius.

    Oh and did you invent a new criteria just so you didn't have to put Hatton first?

    What's Torres ever done to prove he could beat Hatton?

    He couldn't even knock out Morua FFS.

    Hatton would outbox him with his much underrated skills.

    I think he could stop Torres with body shots if he wanted too as well.

    Since Torres slight step up in class, he got KO'd by Cotto, taken 12 by Morua, wasn't going to stop Holt until a gift from the ref/fans and got taken 12 by Amaoutis.

    His power is vastly, vastly overrated, because he pushed Cotto over once.

    Against elite boxers like Hatton, his power will be shown up for what it is, slightly above average.

    It's one thing knocking out colombian taxi drivers, he's found out it's another thing even trying to KO C class fighters.

    Hatton would stop Torres late on, but I could also see him boxing to a comfortable UD.

    It was a bull**** stoppage.

    Ref stopped it because the ring was soaking wet and the fans were going mental.

    Holt was still throwing punches as the ref stopped it, absolute shite decision.

    Hatton's never got a gift like that, he's never needed one.

    6. Andreas Kotelnik
    7. Demetrius Hopkins
    8. Kendall Holt

    This is how I have it right now. I think Hatton would beat Malignaggi in their proposed match up. I think Holt will beat Torres in their July 5th match up.

    Even though the stoppage was strange, that knockdown from Torres was official... and Kendall Holt being hurt was official...

    Thats the talent in the division. I believe that sooner than later guy's like McCloskey and Alexander will shine. Alexander has already been on networks twice and looks very impressive. McCloskey just needs more exposure and a few more fights.

    Hatton should fight PM and Bradley then go off to the pub 4 good.

    But the stoppage was a disgrace, as was the condition of the ring, the fact that Holt (a slickster) is trying to move around in a beer soaked ring is insanity. Then the ref stops the fight with Holt trying to fight back and Torres falling over his face (likely from the beer on the mat)...it was a mockery.

    Holt wins the rematch.
