    yes, but i said from the beggining he the 7 pound difference doesnt change hatton, the difference tends to be the opposition, aka, stylistically, he would lose to mayweather at any weight because his defense is poor, not because he gained an extra few pounds.

      Yes but Mayweather is a rare case. Hypothetically speaking, if Junior Witter is on a par talent wise with Kermit Cintron and they had similar styles, you would think that Hatton would have a better chance against Witter than Cintron.

          plain and simple this is a BS fight. Hatton is a limited fighter and Pac Man is a limited fighter. PPV, no thank you! There will be no artistry in this one. may not even get clean punching. but we sure to get a lot of jujitsu! Hatton is my least liked fighter in the world. Pac is ok but he is overhyped aswell.

            Hmmm, tricky, actually in a way i think because of Witter being slick hatton might have a better chance against cintron, not sure tho cos cintron can hit, close call, know what you mean though.

            Fine, i accept what you are saying, i shall incoporate 50% of it into my orignal arguement.

              Seriously, against urango his defense was cack and that was at 140, he was tired too and hanging on and that was at 140, he got hurt bad by body shots and that was at 140, his style is what it is, it doesnt change depending on the weight class. wether at 140 or 147 he has a shocking defense that would prolly cost him fights against most world class slick fighters, which is exactly the reason he rarely get matched with slick fighters and tends to get matched with brawlers.

              Example, if he and mayweather ever fought at 140, he still couldnt bully mayweather, and he'd still get badly hurt and he is bigger than mayweather too, because mayweather started at 130, and hatton weighs 175 around the pub.
              He won 11 rounds out of 12 against Urango and he looked unwell in the last three or four rounds. It was alter claimed that he had a chest infection, and I'm inclined to believe so considering the difference between his performance in the first seven rounds versus the last three. Hatton was hurt to the body in the fifth, came back in the sixth and had his strongest round and then seemed to gas, but still won every round on every card.

                This is a publicity stunt. Hatton would kill Paquiao.

                  I agree, he outboxed urango nice for the first half of the fight, but his defence was cack at times, he was getting hit with vicious clean right leads, really basic ****, i tend to pick up on that alot, because i believe if you cant block a juan urango right hand lead, your gonna have problems when you step up against serious fighters. Even against Tsysu at 140, he got hit with basic **** and got knocked down by a body shot which was called a slip.
