Cotto's an all around better fighter but Im not sure how he would handle the weigh in at 140... Id lean toward a UD by Cotto. Cotto would demolish him at 147.
Cotto is a power puncher and has got rocked by Corely.
Hatton isnt so much a power puncher and got rocked by Collazo.
Listen, Hatton looked like shit against Collazo. Even if he were to prepare for cotto at 147, he wouldn't be able to deal with Cotto's power. Like Paulie said in one of his interviews; He hits HAAAARD!
People definitely seem to either love Hatton or hate him. People that love him for some reason think he'll easily beat Mayweather, people that hate him always think he's going to lose his next fight. Hatton is a decent fighter who brings a lot of intensity and passion to the ring. He is going to beat a lot of fighters out there. Hatton vs. Cotto would be a great fight. Its a fight that would give either one of them a quality win. Cotto would pull it out by UD, IMO. Hatton holds too much for Cotto to land more than one big shot at a time and Cotto isn't quick enough to control the fight. Hope this fight happens.
I can't believe the people that pick Hatton by Ko. Do you guys even watch boxing? Listen I am PR but I call it like I see it. Cotto would demolish Hatton. First of all cotto wouldn'y allow hatton to man handle him, Sorry. Cotto would work the body and drain the living shit out of Hatton's bum rush. Cotto in 3 by counter left to the body and left to the head.
Cotto will dominate that unskilled grappler and ko him on the late rounds, if it isn't stop earlier for cuts, etc. Hatton is overrated for winning over an overhill/injured Kosta. I wouldn't be surprised if he looses to Urango. :cool:
Ricky Hatton to win by stoppage inside 8 rounds. I used the following formula to come to this conclusion:
Miguel Cotto getting rocked by Paulie Malignaggi.
+
Kostya Tszyu's face at the end of his loss to Hatton.
=
Miguel Cotto getting knocked cold, and probably pissing blood for a week.
im going to be serios now hatton wins ko. main reason hatton has good power and strength cotto dont have the conditioning and chin to last with him
you can spell "conditioning" properly
yet you spell embarrassed as "imbarrest" :eek:
ROFL, Hatton will win by rear naked choke.... :D
lol i can jus see it,hatton n cotto on the floor in a figure 4 leg lock,cotto breaks free avoidin tapin out,hatton gets on the corner and drop kicks him then hits him with a chair n the reff stops it!
I hope Hatton puts an end to the Cotto hype. Last time I checked the guy wasn't even ranked in the top15 by anybody. why does he even get a Hatton fight?
True,come 2 think of it Luis Collazo was good 2,so Hatton in that case,but i still think Cotto would win :)
Look at common opponents. They both fought Maussa and Cotto had a cake walk with Maussa and picked him apart. Hatton's limited boxing ability allowed Maussa to make it much more of a battle that it should've been. Hatton clearly won the rounds but Cotto dominated him more completely.
