Hatton will be the first one to ko overrated Paulie

[S A M U R A I]

It doesn't sound like you read the whole thing or you just chose to ignore it, more convinient for you. I compared Lazcano to Mayweather and the similar punch that they both landed on GETTING HITMAN's Jaw.

Both landed in the 10th round in the same Corner:














They almost look identical, except for the whole head-into-the-turnbuckle thing.

Now If a lesser skilled fighter like Lazcano can land the same type of hook like Mayweather did, on Ricky's home turf with his own referee (who saved his ass btw), then you know Paulie will have a field day with him.

No, I got the message but pointed out that Mayweather and Lazcano have enough pop behind their punches to actually be effective with that kind of a (check) hook. Anyway, looking closely at the gif, it looks like Lazcano is the one stumbling around, I think he got caught himself with Ricky's left hand.


But to clarify, I don't see Paulie hurting Hatton. I see Hatton getting inside and beating up Paulie's body.

Vlad you make a pretty good case, but I disagree because Paulie gets ****** into an infight to easy and folds under good pressure. He folded under Ngodjou, Ndou (the second time), and Cotto.

He said he felt a bit overwhelmed by the atomsphere at MSG with all the Ricans and it got him distracted. I wonder what Hatton's crazy british fans are going to do to him. Hatton will win this fight.

After what FMJ Sr has invested in Hatton he should have a great shot at winning but Malignaggi has an interesting style that gives a lot of people problem. Paulie has a great jab and if he can come in shape and with his haircut this time I give him a good chance also.

Man, Brits sure know how to support their fighter. If only the U.S. boxers can get the support that Hatton, Zaghe and Haye get. How about Sturm and Arthur, Vitaly and Wlad.

The only fighters that get that kind of attention in the U.S. are either Mexican, Puertorican or Philipino.

You're referring to blind patriotism.

No thanks, sir.

Warp,

While I don't consider Malignaggie a great fighter or anything, I actually do believe he has good excuses in all those fights except for the Cotto one.

Against Ngoudjo, he listened way too much to McGirt's instructions -"Move to your left while you jab, do this, do that" - and he actually tried to do that which got in the way of his natural flow. He was doing pretty good in the early rounds until McGirt started giving him all these crazy instructions to follow.

Against N'dou in the rematch, what else is there to say besides his Jamacian hair doo. He dominated the guy in the first fight and even dropped him on his ass.

Ultimately, the fights against Ednar Cherry and N'dou in the first are the perfect executions of what Malignaggie has to offer if at his best. And considering how weak Hatton performed in his last fight, I believe he can pull of a slighly better then Collazo type of performance and win a decision.

You missed the point. It's not about the punching power, it's about the speed. Is Lazcano nearly as fast as Mayweather??? How did he manage to land that type of a shot on Hatton?

And to clarify (using your words) I don't see Hatton clinching his way to victory due to Malignaggie's lateral movement and I definitely do see Malinaggie's fast (faster then Lazcano) combinations landing on Hatton's dome all night long after Hatton tries to land one of those big looping punches.

Lazcano is a natural lightweight....

People said the same thing with Mayweather..."Oh, Mayweather has no power Hatton is gonna get insided and work the body"....We're talking about professionals here this ain't the amateurs. You think Malignaggi is gonna stand there, with out his elbows tight??? This isn't JLC we talking about...If he couldn't stop Juan Urango or Lazcano, there's no way Ricky is coming close to stopping Malignaggi. Common sense.

Paulie built a reputation because he made it out alive against a weight-drained Cotto and he beat a fringe contender in Cherry on BAD.

His clock is ticking. He better get paid well cause Hatton will crush that feminine body of his.

Paulie may look gay, but he doesnt have a femine body. No boxer does.

I wrote pragrpahs and paragraphs on why Malignaggi could beat Hatton. After the Ngoudjo fight and Ndou rematch, I realized what I was basing everything on was two good fights against average competition, and a gutsy performance against a weight drained Cotto. At this point I dont think he can win anymore. Maybe he can prove me wrong.

Stylistically, Paulie likes to move to his left. Into his opponents right hand. Hatton is very left handed. Most of his best work comes from his left hook. By moving to his left, Paulie will be moving away from Hatton's strong side. He wont have to worry about the right hand as much as he did against Ndou, Ngoudjo, even Cherry.

Also Malignaggi likes to clinch on the inside. He will lock on to Hatton's left arm as soon as possible. When Ricky wasnt able to smother and initiate clinches himself against Floyd, he had trouble. He needs to be able to fall in, grab, then let go of a combo. Paulie can and will make the fight ugly inside to avoid taking too much punishment. I just dont think it'll be enough. Hatton is a strong 140 pounder.

I disagree strongly. I've invested alot of time into making a case for Malignaggie to win by decision.

I think Hatton won't able to reach Paulie as much as he even did Mayweather. Paulie's defense and offense are his legs and alot of lateral movement. He will move and move and pop shot Hatton...Collazo style for most of the rounds. Some of the rounds will be competitive during the few times Malignaggie gets trapped in a corner, but still close and some of em will go to Hatton.

Lets also keep in mind that Hatton too had a bad performance in his last fight and almost got dropped with the same punch that Mayweather dropped him with. And that against a much slower, less effective puncher.

Lets keep in mind that Hatton is getting older and he said, he will not stop drinking. Cutting all that weight year after year has got to be taking a toll on his body and stamina.....NOTHING LASTS FOREVER. Maybe it already showed against Lazcano. The signs are there, Hatton is fading quick and Malignaggie is a slick and trimm/in shape natural jr-welterweight who walks around 150lb at most in between fights.

THANK YOU! finally someone makes some sense around here, Paulie losing to Hatton?? Manchester must have some good weed boy I tell u.. Paulie Malignaggi aside from Floyd Mayweather Jr and Ivan Calderon has to be the most skilled feather fists fighter around. he got heart like a mu****a so he gonna take whatever Hatton gonna throw. Hatton mauls you but he wont be able to do that when Paulie's giving him angles. Hatton has a tendency to hold first THEN hit, by the time he gets to do that small little Paulie is out the way. 12 rounds of this and Paulie is chillin..

don't get me wrong I respect Ricky Hatton, he's a well respected fighter in my book but history has shown us he doesn't do well with solid Boxers, skillful and slick Boxers whom know how to maneuver for 12, they built for that. Hatton got it but not against a guy like Paulie, he's going to get worked by pitter patter punches that don't even hurt for 12 rounds because he wont know how to trap him unless he holds him, something Paulie ain't gonna let him do..

I got Paulie. that's my prediction as the winner. I just think he gonna be too slick for Hatton. this is Boxing and I acknowledge I could be wrong but I just don't see it. if I gather up 1K I'll bet someone on it with 5 to 1 odds, if one of you mate's is really confident about ya man the odds shouldn't be a problem, I got Paulie.. holla
