Castillo vs. Hatton?

[Guest]

Dont know much about Urango. I bet you he is a tough guy and will hard to beat judging by his unbeaten record but the people who dont like Hatton will try and make out Urango is a nobody.
Hatton v Castillo will be interesting if and when it happens.

YOU don't know much about Urango, but the haters are going to say he's a nobody?!? This has to be the most contradicting statement I have ever read. Urango is a nobody. He got a gift against Arnaoutis and a gift to win the title against Ben Rabah. He is an average fighter in a weak division. If Hatton struggles at all with this guy, I would be very shocked. Hatton sought out the weakest titleholder at 140. This does nothing for him as far as getting as getting fans in the US. Most of the people who have tickets for the fight are flying in from the UK...

Hatton to win, most likely on point in a classic! A KO isnt out of the question tho

Castillo wins a close decision on the cards, or wins via late TKO.

no possible way, no way in hell does Hatton come close to beating Castillo.

By naturally bigger, I mean Castillo has out-grown Hatton naturally.

but i think hatton speed head movement
and pressure would get him the win

Hatton doesn't use head movement. He uses head feints at times on the offense, but he doesn't move his head for defense.

He's an offensively-minded fighter, but at the same time very much a counter-puncher - he works off opponents leads and threads punches through small gaps. He either beats you to the punch, steps back slightly so that the punch falls short slightly (he's often an impeccable judge of timing and distance), or steps off to the side (which is what he does better than anybody I've seen).

I doubt Hatton has the power to KO JLC. Look how long it took Corrales to finally stop JLC & that was after giving/taking hell & Chico is one of the most explosive punchers in boxing. Like what was posted, Hatton won't be able to bully JLC around like he does to others. He'd be in the ring with a real badass that can box & brawl & who's more durable than any other fighter he's faced.

Hatton's the best body puncher, possibly ever.

Castillo doesn't know what he's in for.

[GEOFFHAYES]

The Hitman has 20+ KO's from the left hook to the body.
