Malinaggi: 'Hatton scared to get hit'

[SkillspayBills]

Ricky will pressure right through Mal's punches and really put the heat on him to a UD. This is coming from a New Yorker.

I reckon the Magic Man UD.

hatton will beat malinaggi no doubt

haha It's funny that Malignaggi says Hatton is afraid of getting hit.

Hatton is the one who comes straight forward trying to engage.........and Malignaggi fights off the back foot doing his best impression of reaching into the pizza oven without burning his hands.

odd comment hatton took a fair few power punches of floyd and kept coming forward he is not scared about being hit.

Paulie is willing to trade though. Remember the Cotto fight...

Hatton would run right through Malinaggi's shots because he is feather fisted. Pauli does not have the kind of power that Floyd does so i give Pauli zero chance if they ever fought.

my grandmother wouldn't be scared of getting hit by paulie

my grandmother would walk right through those punches. I'd pick Paulie by shutout against my Nan.

Paulie better be willing to trade, because thats the only way he can keep Hatton on the outside. If Hatton thinks hes getting the best of it without using all his energy having to close gaps, then he will be more than happy to trade. Thats when Paul needs to land a few clean couters then get on his bike, and fast. If the fight happens any other way Malignaggi will NEVER win this.

On a side note, perfect comeback fight for Hatton. Its for his old title, at his natural weight against a feather fisted boxer. Floyd made Hatton look almost silly at times, but Malignaggi is nowhere near good enough to keep Hatton off him, and any doubts Hatton now has over his own chin wont bother him against someone who couldnt punch his way out of a wet paper bag.
