Where Does This Myth That Hatton Is a Hard Hitter Come From???

to be fair, cotto couldn't ko malignaggi either, that guy has a good chin.

Cotto broke his hand in that fight plus he was weight drained. Hatton doesn't really have power the only one of note he knocked out was an old out shape Castillo.

he couldnt knock paulie down cause paulie was holding on for dear life

you know you kinda caught me with this thread and maybe we do take it for granted that he is a real power puncher

however i think you can tell from face value just by watching him fight that he can punch. but maybe it is overrated somewhat like you say

i have noticed that he smothers his own work a lot and doesn't often connect good, clean punches though. and when he does it looks hurtful

Hattons hook to the body is his best punch.

nah, hatton got wild and sloppy toward the end that's why he never knocked down paulie again.
