If Hatton fights Margs...

Honestly I can't even imagine the two facing off, it would be like a father fighting his son in terms of the size difference involved.

But if it were to happen, I think Ricky would hold on until at least the 6th or 7th round, maybe even later. Margarito starts at a snail's pace, and Ricky could bank the early rounds if he would give Tony a lot of movement.

And Tony's power isn't one punch power, it's derived from the accumulation of damage he deals out over the course of the fight.

Once Tony gets in gear though, it's up to him how long Ricky lasts, because it will pretty much be his decision when to take him out.

Probably about 4 rounds.

Hatton would look about 3 weight classes smaller.

there's only ooooooooooone ri-cky hat-ton!!!!

[ferocity]

I remember before the Collazo fight people were real confident that Margs couldn't hang with Hatton. Where are these people at?

[daggum]

you guys are forgetting this is the "new" hatton. he would bob and weave and use his superior boxing skills to outpoint the slower margarito.

ricky hatton and antonio margarito are both great world champions and have beaten alot of great fighters if they ever fight wow what a match that will be

Who cares, Calzaghe vs Margarito would be even a worse beatdown than Margarito vs Hatton. Lets talk about that.

Yeah Tony would expose Joe's lack of heart and his china chin........

I don't see Hatton fighting at Welterweight ever again now that the fight with Oscar fell through, unless he fights Mayweather again which would probably be at welter.

Margarito would look like a cracked Tomato after 2 rounds. And Calzaghe has far more heart than he does, but its not like he would need it against Margarito.
