    Hatton looked good that fight he wasnt just lunging in like he used to a lot in his previous fights he jabbed and boxed his way in with good head movement and didnt realy give paulie a target to hit. And to the people trying to compare this to the Cotto fight thats ******ed Paulie looked 10x better against cotto then he did against hatton, In the cotto fight Paulie moved around and worked combos and didnt clinch as much and in the hatton fight he didnt throw combos and clinched a whole hell of a lot.

      But anyway, let's get a few things straight.

      The yanks were pretty deluded before this fight, like I've always said and everypost about Paulie, Paulie is well overated! apart from a starved Cotto that nearly put him in a body bag with a broken jaw who has Paulie faught? seriously. He's a tough cookie I'll give him that.

      It's an OK win for Hatton, that's about it. I wanted to see a KO.

      However, on a good note, Hatton looked more composed and not nearly as tired as I've seen him throughout his career. Hatton rocked Paulie off jabs as well.

      No doubt Paulie has the few inch advantage in height and arm reach and should have boxed Hatton all night..what happened? maybe it was true what Paulie said...Hatton is awkward.

      I dont know what Paulie M was smoking when he said that, Hatton has to be one of the easiest fighters to find/hit along with the David Haye...So how can Hatton be awkward??? Naz was awkward....Witter is awkward not Hatton.

        I wasn't to impressed with Hatton...he is still way to open for punches...If he fought someone with more power it would have been over for him.

          nah, hatton is awkward because he rushes in and doesn't maintain proper punching distance.

            yeah, he needs to tighten up the defense.
