Chavez beats the **** out of him, worst style matchup for Ricky ever
Whitaker embarresses him over the 12, he might go down
Kostya unsure
Camacho gets wide decision over him
Meldrick gets the tko
Duran beats him up
Mosley knocks him out
Pryor tkos him
De La Hoya I think would win via cuts
McGirt beats him
Rosario knocks him out, Rosario=incredible puncher
Cotto looked shaky at 140 to me, Id say Hatton beats him down the stretch via decision

The guy has 43 fights....but you need one more?
It is unfair to judge Hatton by the PBF fight. If he loses, that doesn't make him any worse than he is today. PBF has been on the P4P list for ten years, and is most likely an ATG. No shame in losing to that guy.
If Hatton wins, then that means... he can beat PBF. But the Chavez, Whitaker, Duran questions remain intact.
PBF should be judged by the Hatton fight. Hatton shouldn't be judged by the PBF fight....and this is coming from a FMJ supporter.Comment

Hatton vs. Julio Cesar Chavez.. Chavez in his prime, I don't see Hatton beating. Chavez had a better beard, had great stamina, and threw better body shots, in my personal opinion then Hatton. Late TKO or a decision for Chavez.
Hatton vs. Pernell Whitaker.. Watch December 8th.. Lol.
Hatton vs Meldrick Taylor.. That speed and power? C'mon... Look what Taylor was able to do against a Chavez, and tell me you think Hatton, with a suspect chin, would do.
Hatton vs. Kostya Tszyu.. Prime for prime, who knows. I'll go with fact though, Hatton, by making Kostya quit on his stool.
Hatton vs. Hector Camacho.. Hatton, I doubt Camacho would want his body hurt like that.
Hatton vs Roberto Duran (assume 140).. Duran. Had a better chin, better boxer but could brawl, and do that better than Hatton, too.
Hatton vs Shane Mosley (assume 140).. I doubt he could handle Mosley inhis prime. ****, at 147, I doubt he could handle Mosley right now. Too much speed, mixed with great combinations and good footwork.
Hatton vs Aaron Pryor.. Not sure... I djust don't know.. even in Pryors prime, he didn't train well.. lol.
Hatton vs Oscar Delahoya (140).. De La Hoya.. At 140, his stamina problems didn't show as much. He was quick with a powerful left hook and used decent footwork when he was in there to box.
Hatton vs Buddy McGirt.. Tough fight to call. I'd say whoever won got it by split decision.
Hatton vs Edwin Rosario (140) To be honest, I don't know enough about Rosario to make the correct call here. So, I will reserve judgment.
Hatton vs Miguel Cotto.. At 140.. I'd pick Hatton, and at 147, due to evidence, I'd go with Cotto.. Very strange.
I'm not a Hatton hater, just some of these guys are all time greats. Maybe Hatton does GREAT againast Mayweather, and I'd change my mind. However, I can only make that call on December 9th.Comment

C-Drone,
Terrific , analytical post. +K4U.
The only thing , though is that there is a bit of revisionist history about the Hatton-Tszyu fight. I think anybody who was watching that fight was surprised that Zoo stayed on his stool. Hatton certainly was. It wasn't a Thrilla in Manila type situation or even a mayweather-gatti type domination.
It was a reasonably close fight (that hatton was winning!!), and the cards bear that out. But the fight was up for grabs in the championship rounds.
Because it was a competitive fight, and Tszyu was 36 yrs old in the other guy's building at 2am, I wanted to be fair to KT and tee up a prime vs. prime match.Comment

Ohh, I'd say it's a closer fight even, if it was PRIME 4 PRIME. It's just, one could make the arguemnt.. how far out of his prime, was he really? He beat Sharma Mitchell, JUST before that, better than Mayweather beat Mitchell, AFTER Kostya had him. So, maybe stylistically, Hatton just has Kostya's number. I don't know.. That's all I was saying.Comment
