The Overrated Hatton Turned Down Offers To Fight Cotto at 140 Years Ago

[Del Coqui]

Cotto even told him he would go to England and fight him there if he wanted too but Hatton turned down all offers. Why did Hatton never got heat for this? He turned down those offers to fight Maussa a guy Cotto KO years before.

where'd you learn this?

I made this qoute the other day

The most logical matchup back in 2005 was Cotto and Hatton and Hatton wanted nothing of him,Hatton turned down Mayweather and resident old fart Bob Arum didn't want Cotto in the same ring with Mayweather,So there was absolutely no reason for Cotto and Hatton not to happen,Cotto offered to go to manchester and fight him and Hatton turned him down to fight the satanic tribal warrior.

This was even before Hatton became champion,There were strong talks in early 2006 but Hatton decided to move up to 147 and go after the WBA welterweight belt.

When Cotto made his intentions to move up to welterweight,Hatton moved back down to 140 where there was no chance Cotto would fight again

Maussa was mos def a weaker opponent than Cotto, but at least had a belt. I think Cotto woulda beaten him had they fought. If it's true, I never heard about this avoidance of an England offer from Cotto before.

[Del Coqui]

**** that gets me is why the *** Cotto never KOd Harris when he was ranked mandatory WBA. Then Harris got exposed by that bum Maussa.

Cotto had one too!!!!!!!!

I know. After KT and Maussa Hatton was jumpin up to WW to challenge Collazo. When exactly did this offer for Cotto to go to the UK come down, in 2005 or 2004?
