    I mean i got nothing against Paulie i like watching the kid and he is a good Boxer but he is not an exceptional Boxer he is IMO on the level of underrated counter puncher/oxer that does not have enough pop or aggresion to keep a guy like Hatton off him

      Thats sum bum ass reasoning, if they fight different fights (which they do) thennyour theory goes out of the window.
      I wasnt necessarily comparing Cotto to Hatton (was sort of cuz i think that Cotto and Hatton dont fight the same but have some similarities) but i just used Cotto as a example because that was the best person who Paulie has fought so far... i could have made an N'dou or Cherry reference.

        im all for Hatton learning new trick and all but i just hope he does not make too many drastic changes cause the old Hatton beats Paulie comfortably as far as im concerned so why change your style and try to be more measured when preassure and high intensity workrate, Body punching etc is what is needed here

        Cotto v Malignaggi was closer than it should of been for two reasons Cotto did not apply CONSTANT preassure and he was too patient and the other reason was weight issues

        Hatton is talking about outboxing Paulie he tries that he could well end up losing this fight
        Paulie is a tough customer, Hatton will have his hands full.

            Hatton will lose this fight. Paulie won't stand there and let him tee off. His only chance is to outwork Paulie and he won't have a standin target to constantly get off flurries.

              Paulie only moves one way to his left that is why he got tagged by Ngoudgjo, with right hands

                the Hatton that fought Lazcano is showing up not the one that faced Tackie
