    Hatton v Malignaggi: Floyd All Over Again?

    There seems to be a large number of people on here who believe that a fight between Malignaggi and Hatton would be similar to last week's battle between Mayweather and Hatton with Hatton once again falling to a superior boxer.

    My question then is this: does that mean that a fight between Cotto and Mayweather would be similar to the Cotto Malignaggi fight, specifically the boxer gets his face smashed up by the more powerful fighter?

    I cant believe people are seriously considering that Paulie "The Metrosexual" Malignaggi is actually gonna KO Hatton.

      No way Paulie Stops Hatton......but I could see Floyd/Cotto taking a similar path to Paulie/Cotto.....but Floyd does have more power than Paulie so I think he could keep him away better without running as much as Paulie Does.

        I think Paulie wins a decision against Hatton. But a stoppage on cuts could happen.

          no, hatton walks through malignaggis punches and puts him down, multiple times before the ref stops it. malignaggi cant hit worth ****, floyd can...

            No, it won't be like Mayweather-Hatton. Malignaggi is fast but he doesn't have the power to keep Hatton off him. The referee will play a part in this fight as well, but I think Hatton will win a decision.

              I really don's see feather fisted malagnaggi beating Hatton-mayweather won cause he is just-better than hatton all round- i don't think paulie will do the same thing he will get bulied by hatton the way mayweather would not let him do

                The main problem I see for Malignaggi is that on the inside he doesn't have the tools to give Hatton the problems that Mayweather did. Floyd gave as good as he got if not more whereas Malignaggi is a bit too clean cut to rough Hatton up.

                  Malignaggi will most certainly not KO Hatton but it is reasonable to say he will win a wide margin decision.............if they fight in the U.S. that is

                    Mayweather doesnt need that much space to get off punches that do damage, Malignaggi would have to have the same ability which i dont think he does, the fight is close, also Paulie also doesnt have an impenetrable shell like Mayweather does, he can be hit.
