    Who Does Hatton Beat At WW?

    Out of all the top guys, can Hatton beat any of them. Im not talking about a bad Hatton either. Im talking about a Hatton who this time would carry his same skills that he has at 140. Same speed, strength, and all. Is he still too small and not talented enough for the guys at 147

    1-Floyd
    2-Oscar
    3-Mosley
    4-Margarito
    5-Cotto
    6-Williams
    7-Clottey
    8-Cintron
    and anyone else I left out. Can Hatton beat any of them? If not then does that say something negative about him? I mean a guy should be able to beat atleast one of the top 8 fighters just one division up.

    I dont know man WW is really deep in talent and they are all good punchers (except for PBF). I think I would have Hatton as an underdog against the top 10WW's.

    However stylisticly I would give Hatton his best chance against Margarito, Clottey, Julio and Cotto. At least in those fights he would be able to hit back while they work on the inside.

    It would be harder for Hatton against the others stylisticly and he would eat a lot of heavy leather in just attempting to get inside his striking range.

      the only person he might have a slim chance again is... wait no he would not be able to beat any of those guys, but he did beat a shot castillo so he is a great in my book.

        I could see maybe those other 3 but I think Margarito would decapitate him

          Yall are underrating Hatton. He has a good shot vs any of them...and they also have a good shot vs him simply due to the competitive nature of the welterweight division. I'd LOVE to see Hatton fight Cotto or Margarito. I would take Hatton over Cotto in a brutal fight.

            I'm not saying he would beat any of them. I'm just saying that against those guys he would have a sporting chance on the inside. I actually think Cotto would beat Hatton worst than Margarito. Cotto is a harder hitter and doesn't loop his punches as much.

              I dont know about that. I think Cotto might have more pop but I think Margarito has those heavy hands. I also think that his size and strength would give Hatton hell while Ricky may can still wrestle with Cotto and is close to his height

                I give Hatton a slim chance against Cotto and Cintron, but both of those guys hits 10 times harder then Collazo, so even those 2 fights can be tough for Hatton.

                I don't see Hatton beating the other 6 guys.

                  Well I have always believed Cotto had that heavy handed power you speak of. Just look at everyones face who he fights. However the power thing is a circular arguement.

                  But margarito loops his punches more and I believe Cotto punches out of clinches better than Margarito. Also height isn't a big deal with Hatton-Margarito or Cotto because Margarito isnt a boxer and they would probably fight on the inside all night.
