Castillo vs. Hatton?

[PATO 1]

against either blown up featherweight or journeyman ^^

If Hatton is having trouble with Castillo IF he decides to simply stand and trade, he has so much more in his armoury to call on - he can work on the outside, give him angles, put a jab in his face, use his footspeed and agility to make him miss, etc.

Castillo doesn't have Hatton's muscle strength or agility and Hatton has the faster hands, the shorter punches and the better combinations. Plus Hatton is more polished, he knows how to use the angles better and has more punch variety. He also has better left hand work than anything Jose has seen (hooking off the jab, left uppercuts off the jab, jabbing off the hook, jabbing off the left uppercut, jabs turned into hooks or corkscrew uppercuts, switching from head to body or body to head like lightning, etc).

So Hatton is somehow Floyd Mayweather now? If Hatton had skills he wouldn't have got owned by Luis.

You either haven't seen much of Hatton or simply don't know what your looking for.

The fact that Hatton BEAT Collazo in that kind of condition just exposes Collazo. It's amazing that a so-called world champion can't even win a fight with free hits for 12 rounds and all shots coming his way at around 0.5mph.

Hatton didnt get owned by Luis. Luis gave Hatton problems because Hatton ran out of gas and that is down to cutting corners in prepearation. Eating junk, etc. If he had his usual gas which normally is very good, it would have been an earlier nights work for Hatton.
PBF does a lot of running in his fights and you can visualize the kind of problems hed have if he didnt have gas in the tank. The miles he clocks up running from his opponents. Must be a marathon at least.

Thats a BOLD statement Geoff! I Luv the kid but thats a bit wild

I've never seen anybody step off to load up their bodyshots like Hatton does or step around to open an opponent up as well as he does.

He's probably left more people pissing blood than anybody ever, and every time he opens an opponent up he lands the shot right into the pit of the stomach - every time.

lol, I have seen highlights of his fights from his dvd that came out in England. He's good but come on man, he has yet to fight someone that is a badass on the inside. Hatton is an overated fighter and Luis proved it, and you really belive Hatton would outbox Castillo? lol I'm more scared of Castillo coming in drained at 140 than Hatton himself.

Your joking right? So luis started tagging him because Hatton was running out of gas? Luis figured him out,lol. Luis had Hatton on ***** street by the end of the fight.

The way he steps around is beautifull! Class! But ur talkin EVER, u got ur JJC's ur Duran's ect. Even currently id say Cotto's body work was more hurtfull. Hatton hasnt really Done any of the top boys in with his body work, not saying he couldnt but its just a point

Ben Tackie caused the greatest 140lber of all-time in Kostya Tszyu to not fight his usual fight, but to keep him on the end of his jab for 12 rounds - that's the kind of respect Tszyu gave Tackie. And people ackowledge Hatton as the 'brawler', as you do, yet Tackie caused Hatton to 'box' him from the start and not trade like he usually did.

Tackie was a beast on the inside.
