    what are your predictions for these fights juy ?
    I reckon Hatton would struggle more with Castillo than Cotto.

    Castillo would do it on points, for me. Cotto on points but with less a margin.

    Joe would get a right pasting from Taylor, KO late on, and Hopkins would outpoint Calzaghe by a long margin.

    Just my 2 cents...

          Younger blood, better boxer and a boxer - for me - who is a class above Joe Calzaghe. Bear in mind the dude's beat Bernard Hopkins twice, too. Jumping up a few pounds ain't gonna worry Taylor either.

          Calzaghe has had one good fight, Jeff Lacy, and a scrap against a past-his-best Chris Eubank. Aside from this he's like Hatton, a dodger. If he wasn't he'd have scrapped Hopkins or Tarver or Taylor by now. Boxing politics doesn't come into it, dude is a Welsh yellowbelly.

              Id pick Hatton to get the nod over Castillo but i think Cotto destroys Hatton, who is 1 of my very fav fighters! Joe, i just dont like! But he has a good shot of beatin Taylor, he mite just completly outwork him, Taylor lays back on the ropes to much. Hopkins, another i dont particuarly like, would know too much for Joe IMO. I just read Hattons Biography to, good book! Ian, alot of my fights are on tape and aint great quility, im just really starting to build a dvd collection but yeah id luv to trade sum time in the future

                It's sad that Calzaghe had been the SMW king for nearly ten years and Taylors has still beaten better fighters.


                Taylor will put Joe in a bodybag.

                    i doubt it.

                    calzaghe is too busy and throws too many punches. he would tko jermaine imo.
                    hopkins also beat taylor in their first fight as did winky imo

                      I HAD the SRL vs Duran trioligy but the tape got chewed up!
                      Most of my stuff is more modern, Tito, Cotto, Gatti, Tyson, Lewis, Jones jnr career fights and an assortment of random match ups
