    I actually thought this was gonna be a tough fight for pacman, based on hatton's performance against Malignaggi.

He gets called glass chinned, yet he was only down once in his first 43 fights to Magee, and it took a **** load of flush punches from Mayweather before he was worn down.

        He just wasn't the same fighter against Pac, there's no doubting Pac was awesome that night though and the Cotto fight should be great.
        of course he wasnt cause hes fighting an elite. ricky hatton is a class = B fighter

              Sr always late for training.
              Sr needs to stop by taco bell even if hes already late.
              Sr and Hattons personalities dont mix. Theres no chemistry
              Sr cant lay off the pipe.
              Sr only did this for his publicity.
              This fight is not about Hatton, its for Sr.

                  This fight is not about Hatton, its for Sr.
                  I totally agree with you. In my honest opinion, Hatton is still undefeated.

                  Cortez is responsible for the 1st loss and Floyd Sr for the 2nd.

                  Ricky Hatton, 45-0 undefeated baby!

I think Manny is smarter in the ring. All in all, I am not a Hatton fan, and I don't even think he is that good when compared to todays level of boxer.
                    ^^^^100% agree with this. Exactly what i think about it.

                      When has anyone legitimately claimed that Hatton was multi-faceted? He has a come forward (with hands down) type of style. He made that mistake against Floyd, and he made it against Pacman. When has Hatton ever boxed effectively while retreating? When has anyone seen Hatton use a ***in jab effectively? When has anyone seen Hatton effectively counter punch?
