Hatton Approached By Pacquiao, De La Hoya: Tells Oscar No

[RodBarker]

>Collazo, maybe an off night. Still won and knocked him down, still counts since he was hit and went down. UD win.
>He dominated Urango from bell to bell. I have no idea where that came from. Go back and look at punch stats and the scorecars to enlighten ya. See Urango's last fight and then come back here and apologize to me.
>He soundly beat the piss out of Lazcano, just lacked in defense.(hence the off-night comment) A lesser man would have been KO'd by Hatton, no doubt.
>Judah was fighting better then , than he is now. Just got caught and went chicken legged. Give some credit.
>Nowhere did I ever say that he is an ATG. But he was Ring Champ for a reason.
> As far as Hatton being over-Hyped: Once he loses to someone other than either the #1 P4P fighter in the world in a horrible ref'd fight, I may think about it some. Until then, Hatton is under rated because of his loss. Like I said, he is only as good as his last fight in the public's eyes. After Mallignaggi, it will be the same way even if he wins by stoppage. He will have to beat an elite fighter to regain his respect. And, I think that is what he will eventually do.

The hype said Urango would be stopped by Hatton , but on the contrary Ricky got hit by a good body shot and Hatton went total hugger boxer from then on, it was not a good fight at all and Urango is not what you call elite , I mean Ben Rabah boxed his ears of and was robbed .

You can buff Ricky career all you want I just dont think he is anywhere near what the hype made him out to be , he was hyped to beat the P4P best not just turn up and had an army of believers of the hype , I believe he will be stopped again before he retires .

Judah wasnt better then , what are you talking about he is so much more mature now , his chin has never changed and was made at birth somebody had to be first , you dont get ATG status claiming Judah as you best foe .

We basicly have a different view on the classes of boxing and who is in what class , you seem to rate some fighters like Lazcano and Urango higher than I ever would , but thats ok we would having nothing to talk about if we all thought the same .

I don't see Pac bein big enough to do damage at 140. He'd get overpowered by Hatton. If he can beat Diaz there's other work to be done at 135, so he should just stay there. Oscar oughta pick on someone his own size and challenge for a title at 154 or 147 if he can get down there.

Oscar should fight Winky or Mora.

Oscar should fight Winky or Mora.

i agree entirely ... Oscar Vs Winky is a fight i'd like to see

the Hatton camp are right to turn the fight down ... Oscar is just too big, i think thats why they steered clear of Cotto while he was @ 140 and still should!

hatton needs to worry about paulie before even talking about another bout. Truth is he's no walk on the park.

Same thing goes for pacman, but in reality, pacman should(and most def will) beat Diaz

I like Ricky, but he couldnt take Oscar's power.
