Ricky Hatton vs. Paulie Malignaggi

[Mersey]

Gotta say Hatton by decision

[Roger Mellie]

Hatton by UD,maybe 5 points or more.I dont think Malignaggi has enough power to discourage Hatton,also Hatton is a better boxer than he is given credit for.I cant see Ricky knocking him out though as Paulie has a solid chin and a lot of heart.This could actually be a very good fight

[camymcf]

ive got paulie by a close-ish decision on this one (116-113 ish)

[Miyagi]

i think hatton will win a close decision. then he should think about retirement.

[Joe2608]

Hatton by late stoppage.

[SpArKeD-CoLd]

ricky will suss paulie out and keep landing them big body shots, he'll wear him down and stop him rounds 7-11

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

I'll say Malignaggi by Close desicion, lke a 115-112. I believe if Malignaggi win the early rounds he would win the fight. Since brawlers most of the time they take 1 or 2 rounds to start getting into the fight, I think Paulie can take advantage of that. I think hatton will win the middle rounds maybe droping Paulie in one of those rounds, But I think he'll gas out in the later rounds. Hatton still have the power to KO Paulie, but is very doubtful. Hatton needs to press from the begining ala Margarito, make it a rough fight,throw a lot of punches and make paulie go to the ropes. In the other hand Pauilie needs to circle around Hatton,stick the jab, give him angles, and tag the left Hook all night. Thats the punch that have had Hatton hurt in fights and he gets easily hit with it. I'm not saying Paulie is going to hurt him, but thats the punch that paulie will be most succesful with in the fight.

This is how I see the rounds

1.Paulie 10-9
2.Paulie 10-9
3.Hatton 10-9
4.Paulie 10-9
5.Hatton 10-8 (Paulie gets droped by Hatton)
6.Hatton 10-9
7.Paulie 10-9
8.Paulie 10-9
9.Paulie 9-8 They both get points deduction. (Paulie Low Blows.) (Hatton execive Holding)
10.Hatton 10-9
11.Paulie 10-9
12.Paulie 10-9

Paulie UD 114-111

[MELLY-MEL...]

hatton by ud, but i'm expecting a close fight if paulie shows up in good shape, and form.

[Brother Blues]

Hatton walks thru Powder-Puff Paulie and whips his ass for however long the fight goes.

nah . . . the decision may be close but hattons come forward style is perfect for paulie's slick boxing. paulie is excellent at fighting backwards and will have ricky's head flying back with his crisp quick upjab. its going to be the bull against the matador but this bull just isnt as good as he used to be.
