How Does Hatton Do Agaist Other Welterweights?

[Allucard]

i cant see him beating Mosley, Cintron, Quintana, Margo, Cotto or even Judah. I never really saw anything special in Hatton.

You are very likely to see these words in someone's sig as Hatton fights again in the ww division. He could do well!

Isn't it funny how Cotto is considered a big welterweight? See for yourself:

boxer: Miguel Angel Cotto
Global ID 33535
sex male
birth date 1980-10-29
age 27
manager/agent register
division welterweight
rating 2 / 1286
nationality Puerto Rico
alias Junito
residence Caguas, Puerto Rico
birth place Caguas, Puerto Rico
stance orthodox
height 5′ 7″
reach 67“
US ID PR060444
won 31 (KO 25) + lost 0 (KO 0) + drawn 0 = 31

Yet Hatton:

boxer: Ricky Hatton
Global ID 9314
sex male
birth date 1978-10-06
age 29
manager/agent register
division light welterweight
rating 1 / 1169
nationality United Kingdom

stance orthodox
height 5′ 6½″

US ID NY049253
won 43 (KO 31) + lost 1 (KO 1) + drawn 0 = 44

is considered small. WOW what half an inch can do!

I don't consider Cotto a BIG welterweight. He is a natural welterweight who is very strong at that weight, just like Hatton is at 140. Cotto wasn't at his best as a LWW and he would be a bit under-sized as a LMW (but he could succeed because the division isn't very strong).

Williams, Cintron and Margarito are BIG welterweights.

I agree with most that he should fight at LWW

who is talking about Cotto? and hasnt Cotto defeated fighters bigger than him? WOW WTF and so on.

[Allucard]

Actually Hatton is not small as a ww. In the Floyd fight he was pressing the fight until round 8, smaller fighters don't push bigger fighters back and considering Floyd is the best at that weight i miss to see how is Hatton small for ww. HE did look worse as a ww than as a jww and the reason is simple: quality of the opposition. That's the only factor. The moment you see Hatton getting bullied you can say crazy stuff like that but until then Hatton is just as fit as Cotto, Margarito or Citron or Mayweather to hang in there. Ok Margarito is bigger than the rest. WOW how will Cotto get by MArgarito? Arum should quickly make that fight disapear

[Flab]

Hatton would get beat by and one from 140 up, he needs to stick to fighting s.featherweights and lightweights.

[warp1432]

He'd beat Clottey, Judah, Gomez, Berto, and Quintana.

[RAESAAD]

He'd beat Clottey, Judah, Gomez, Berto, and Quintana.

You grossly underestimate Clottey IMO......Clottey would beat Hatton.
