Who has the better footwork, Hatton or Cotto?

[Bushbaby]

When Cotto is the applying pressure,he does a great job!!I haven't seen him apply pressure against an elite fighter for a while!!But if Cotto comes in bigger & stronger,I expect vintage search & destroy Cotto,a back to his roots type of performance!!Cotto has been boxing more as he stepped up in class,but against Pacman,he can search & destroy!!

[inferno]

Its because he has his strong hand out in front. That is the only reason why I'm giving Pacquiao a chance at all in this fight...Pacquiao has shown that he is vulnerable to a counter right hand. Cotto doesn't have a bad one, but his best punch is his left hook which is a hard punch to catch a southpaw with unless you have them against the ropes.

Cotto's footwork is better.

Hatton's footwork is faster.

Pretty much all that needs to be said.

[MANGLER]

Cotto does. Hatton usually dives right in. He's good at that, but not much else to it. Cotto when he has to can use footwork for defense. He can move laterally and use the ring. And he maintains balance when pressin forward cuz he don't really move in fast, just stalks forward.

PAC's jab and body work is underrated too.

You bit me with that... hahaha..

Youre right. Cotto's legs are only good for six rounds though...

Nah, his legs have been good for more than 6 rounds for all but one fight. The only reason his legs were done against Margarito is because he was giving constant lateral movement from round 1. Cotto thought he could do what Calderon did to Cazares.

He's not going to be doing that against Pacquiao unless he's trying to survive. If he gasses against Pac it'll be from something else and if he does he's done.

Hatton kind of just jumps in and thats the only direction he goes

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

Cotto's footwork is better.

Hatton's footwork is faster.

Co sign!!!!!

[Ido]

Cottos foot work is better then Hatton.

[El Angel]

Hatton lunges in alot, never really seen Cotto do that too much. He always seem to have his balance with him. He cuts off the ring just as good as Hatton or better.
