Juan Urango vs Ricky Hatton - Your Thoughts?

Hatton fav. punch is the left hook and Urango is the striaght left. left hook is hard to hit southpaw because it of the distance between the fighters and the left hook is a short compact punch. while the striaght left is effective as orthdox giving a striaght right to southpaw. Urango is strong puncher and you could just see his body and an infighter as for Hatton is well is an infighter. both dont have good defense espcailly Hatton. so in specific i say it safet to say the Hatton is taylor made for Urango by going through these fact and if Hatton trys to change his style a bit it would make a difference

WHY hatton would go after another southpaw is beyond me. But i do think urango has a good chance at surviving the fight, but almost no chance at winning. the only way hatton stops urango is from a body shot. mark me words :D :cool2: kball :cool2:

I just watched Juan Urango knock out Andre Eason on TV - INHD. He knocked him down three times, the third time was essentially the charm. Devastating. I did recognize Andre Eason, looked him up to find out that he was on the Contender 2, losing to Walter Wright. Anyways, Urango looked pretty impressive, solid fighter. His defense was good, kept his hands up near his face the whole time. He moved his head well, pushed the fight and had great power. Seeing this, I got to thinking about the future showdown with Ricky Hatton. This is not going to be an easy fight for Hatton. Though Urango has less fights than Hatton, he is hungrier and has more to gain. They both are similar in that they are brawlers. What are your thoughts? :boxing: URANGO is a fuckin robot...that last cat he fought (Ben...whatever) was doing a lot of running and dancing but he was at the same time boxing the shit out of Urango...He shouldnt have won that fight and I bet the farm Hatton makes him pay..

in all honesty, Urango is one of the worst champions I've ever seen in my life By no means am I saying he is really any good but I do think he has the style and power to give Hatton a good fight and my gut tells me he is going to pull off a shocking upset.........

3 times........Hatton can't box nearly as well as Ben Rabah and Urango is very rough.It should be a very good fight and I really like Urangos chances. in all honesty, Urango is one of the worst champions I've ever seen in my life

id bet all your 137,753.53 points that hatton wins. deal ? Go fuck yourself...........

have you ever seen Urango fight? 3 times........Hatton can't box nearly as well as Ben Rabah and Urango is very rough.It should be a very good fight and I really like Urangos chances.

I think Urango lures him into a War and wins by late TKO. have you ever seen Urango fight?

i wouldnt say urango is hungrier or has more 2 gain,cause if hatton loses,the fights with castillo and mayweather are down the drain,if he lost he would fuck everythin up for himself he wouldnt get any big name fights for a while,so i expect hatton on top of his game and in good shape well that pretty much sums it up for me well said....

It's a real good fight, thank fuck Urango got the decision because nobody wants to see the negative boxing of Rabah.. let Hatton and Urango tangle in ring centre and Hatton show the American's why he's the most exciting fighter since Nigel Benn. geoff is right. hatton will get to put his skills on display for the haters.

joke of a fight. I'll be very unimpressed if Urango makes it past 8 rounds. Hatton waited 8 months to fight THIS guy?

Style makes fight. Hatton need to inside-outside to win and he really need to work on his defense because Urango could punch.

as much as i think hatton is a pussy for fighting urango...........i hope he KTFOs urango........ urango is the phoniest champ out there....robbed ben rabah of the title and acted like he deserved to win it!! i'd love to see HATTON bruttaly KO this prick and put him back where he belongs...outside of title fights!

MY THOUGHTS are.. Urango is tough and not entirely unskilled.. BUT he was gifted in the Rabah fight.. and I would predict a Hatton victory.. Reason being Hatton is tougher and more skilled..

What are your thoughts? :boxing: Yeh i watched that fight the other day too,he looked pretty good,moving his head alot like Pacman but did u see his last fight? He got outboxed and should have lost,i dont know how good Urango really is because Andre Eason is nothing good,he got fuked up on The Contender,i think Hatton picked a easy fight,if he loses it will all blow up in his face,i doubt he will lose tho

I never count out Urango because of his streaghth. THat guy is very musclur. Hatton is an infighter unlike Rabah,who was robbed in the fight, is an outboxer and a smart one too. too bad his for Rabah it spoiled his undeafted streak
