So I guess Paulie always was a bum then?

[hammerhiem]

yeah, but he was hatton #1 contender before bradley beat him

Having a worse Resume than Malinaggi, that would be a stretch.

[hammerhiem]

My guess is gonna be it was a one handed Paulie in there which is why it was so one sided.

trust me the beating he got had nothing to do with the condidtion or otherwise of his hands.

yeah, but he was never the less.

He still beat Nduo, Cherry and Ngoudjo. Sure he isn't an elite but he is still a good, decent name at the top of the J. welter rankings.

I haven't seen the Hatton v. Malignaggi fight yet.. I was at work when the fight happened but I'm downloading it right now. My guess is gonna be it was a one handed Paulie in there which is why it was so one sided.

Props to Hatton for the win. I still don't think he can beat Cotto like many are saying though, Hatton beat Malignaggi.. Malignaggi is Malignaggi and in no way doe he represent anything similar to Cotto.

I won't dispute that he's a good, decent name at the top of the 140lbs division. I'm just saying it's a piss poor division, that's all.

I mean Bradley is a Champion there, Witter gave him a shot thinking it would be a nice tune up to his dream match against Hatton I guess. And the relatively green, virtually unheard of Timothy Bradley schooled Witter.

Hatton is the top dog at 140lbs, nobody can touch him unless someone comes up from 135lbs (Pac, Marquez) or down from 147lbs (and I don't think anybody at 147 can make 140).

Post sounds sarcastic, but witter is pretty good

I'll agree that he is, but that hardly elevates the guy who beat him 112-115, 115-113, 114-113 to Hatton-destroyer status.

Bradley might be the second coming of Sugar Ray Robinson for all we know, but so far he does done nothing and beaten nobody compared with Hatton.

The only person I can see torubling Hatton would be Judah, but it would only be for the first 4 rounds in typical Zab fashion.

After that he'd resort to standing center ring, hands at his waist, waiting for Ricky to come in straight up to catch him with his uppercut all night long.

yeah, but now that paulie is eliminated, bradley is hatton's next #1 contender.

yeah but bradley is more deserving than judah...

The winner of Holt/Torres 3 is ahead of Bradley in the que for a fight that will never happen.

Oh absolutely. Judah would've been so much better off if he never left his natural weight of 140lbs to fight the big boys at 147lbs. But the kid has more balls than brains sometimes.

Zab needs to earn a shot at Ricky, he can't coast on being a former 140lbs Champ. Fighting the winner of Holt/Torres III would be a good start.
