Cotto may not be able to pressure Hatton, but he can counterpunch him. Hatton looks wild at times and that Cotto can take advantage of. It could go either way, but I favor Cotto in this match-up. He simply hits a lot harder and a lot more skilled IMO plus the fact that Hatton has just been fighting nobodies at home. He really needs to step up the plate to prove his worth.
Ndou = Philips
Pinto = Tackie
Cotto has been fighting nobody's at home then!
both will prove there worth soon, they are both good fighters with a point to prove.
I like the prospect of a Cotto-Hatton fight AT THIS STAGE IN BOTH FIGHTERS' careers. Ok, may be a little later, but not too much later.
Cotto may have an ever so slight edge in that he trains in the U.S./PR where there's an avalanche of good sparring partners at or in the vicinity of his weight, while Hatton may have sometimes to sc**** the bottom of the barrel for any in GB. But over each of the two's last five fights, I think many've seen enough to eagerly look forward to their meeting, if one gets arranged soon. It's gonna be a tough one to call, I think. But here's one that I'm sure of: the styles of the duo are gonna show boxing's non-fans that there's some METHOD IN THIS MADNESS called pro boxing and not all mayhem and muck.
Things will come a lot quicker for Cotto in the ring anyway, he has better sparring in america and didnt need to be moved along as slow as Hatton did. As ive always said Hatton did his learning and sparring in real fights were Cotto could do it behind closed doors in the gym.
Neither fighter will give up and we could see fireworks.
wouldn't it be great if hatton didn't waive his #1 ranking w/ the WBO and fight cotto for his strap? his given his #1 ranking up twice already, lets hope that he does indeed go for the winner of the mitchell/tzuyu scrap.
the fight, cotto/hatton has VEGAS all over it. this would be a good scrap that i'd see (duh) Cotto putting hatton flat on his face by a lethal left hand counter that buckles hattons legs and puts him down for a 50 count.
