Hatton vs. Cotto

:killyou: COTTO by KO.:killyou:

Cotto's too big for Hatton. Even then I think if they fought a few years ago, it would still have been close.

Cotto would mess up Hatoon's face really bad and wins by TKO.

As i've mentioned in another thread, This fight needs to happen at some point. I'd Give it to Hatton by decision but i couldn't put all my heart into that prediction cause it's too close to call. This would be a pick-em fight IMO.

How do you see this one ending up? To be honest, I think that Cotto would get muscled around by Ricky (since Shane was doing it) , and possily be put off by his constant movement, which he can sustain for much longer that Mosley could at this stage. Your thoughts? Hatton is faster and busier than Cotto and I've never seen him run, unlike Cotto. I've got Hatton at least by decision..

It's hard to believe they're fighting at the same weight. Cotto looks so much bigger. I can't play it out in my mind at all. Cotto's not as big as Urango, and Hatton thoroughly outboxed him the first half of the fight.

if Urango can trouble Hatton with body shots, imagine what Cotto can do...Cotto by close decision.. AND I point out to the fact that Cotto will switch hit his stances, thus confusing Hatton since southpaws usually give him nightmares...

I don't think even Hatton would want it to be at 140. It's not an issue of weight-- both guys have been to both 140 and 147. They both won titles there... I don't think you could say that Hatton is outsized, if Cotto used to fight in the same weightclass as him. It could very well be an issue of weight because Hatton himself said that he wouldn't fight at 147 again and that's why he went back down to 140. He wasn't comfortable at 147 as we all saw the night he fought Collazo. Cotto definitely will not go down 140 again for obvious reasons.

Cotto wears down Hatton & stops him late. Cotto is so damn strong I don't see anything that Hatton could do to deter him. Cotto has a better jab, deceptive hand speed, & a strong will. Hatton would lose valiantly but would pay a huge price for trying to go toe-to-toe with him. There are two fighters that I would favor at this point over Cotto & one's Mayweather (for obvious reasons). The other is Paul Williams. Even though PW doesn't hit that hard he's got such advantages over Cotto I'm not sure he could overcome. His reach, south paw stance, & not to mention he throws so many damn punches a round would be a problem for anyone in the division.

Ricky Hatton would win a close decision imo

i got hatton 2 his speed and accuracy would mess cotto up I'm gonna have to disagree. Judah and Mosley are both faster than Hatton and have just as much if not more power than Hatton and neither fighter beat Cotto. Cotto would fuck Hatton up, he's just to strong.

Cotto by decision or late TKO. The guy is just too damn strong and I doubt Hatton would know how to take away his body attack like Mosley did. Cotto also wouldn't have to worry about any real size/reach disadvantages, so he wouldn't be subject to punishment coming in with his punches. Smothering your guy will work if he's a weaker man. Cotto is not that. A physically strong fighter like Collazo was able to hold Ricky off. I know Collazo is a different type of fighter, but Cotto is a better talent regardless.

hatton Sucks The Only Thing That Hatton Do Is Hold Hold And Hold

Hatton would win this one. ive followed both of these fighters in all/most of their fights and hatton would be too much for him, although people questioned cottos chin he has shown he can take a punch but i aint to sure about the body punches and constant pressure.

REV DIDN'T YOU HAVE MOSLEY KO'ING HIM? IT'S OK YOU GO WITH YOUR HEART AT LEAST yeah i had mosley late tko .. it wasnt teh mosley i remembered but w/e my mistake for under estimating cotto ..i owe lyrical 1k lol ..hatton wins the trilogy also after he beats mayweather he should beat cotto 2 but who the fuck knows these days..its even up there right now thow

Cotto can't make 140. Close pole we have on our hands I don't think even Hatton would want it to be at 140. It's not an issue of weight-- both guys have been to both 140 and 147. They both won titles there... I don't think you could say that Hatton is outsized, if Cotto used to fight in the same weightclass as him.

Cotto can't make 140. Close pole we have on our hands

Cotto by UD or late TKO at Welterweight. Yeah, I seriously doubt Cotto could make 140 these days, and no way he's going to give up his title at 147 to drop down, maybe if he lost first.

I think Mosley is the one who got us this time.. He wasn't all there. Cotto did his job. Impressively. On December 9th I'm bumping this thread if I can remember. Yep-- Agreed. I was pissed when he had Cotto going in the middle rounds (can't remember which exactly).. and then seemed to pull off the gas for no reason. But Mosley showed that even though he's a little faded, he's still got skills...
