    I Think Cotto Would Knock Out Hatton Imo. Cotto Is A Stronger Fighter And Is More Precise With His Punches. Hatton Would Try To Bull Rush Cotto And Thats Where He Would Get Ktfo.

      umm...no...no it wouldnt have been stopped at that point.

          we'll never see Cotto vs. Hatton anyhow, unless Hatton's needing a tune-up, cause Cotto will get beat by Abdullaev I think.

          If they fought, it'd be hard to go against Hatton right now, as far as picking a winner, though I'd want Cotto to beat him.

          I'd rather some other people I like much better beat Hatton before Cotto though.

              Miguel Cotto would beat Ricky Hatton. Cotto is just as young and hungry, but has many other advantages/skills that I feel Hatton doesn't possess.

              I feel that Miguel is a better counter puncher than Hatton. He has developed his right hand into a dangerous weapon now as well so he''s not not so left-hook happy. Cotto knows when to pick his spots to throw sharp, hard counter hooks and straights. I have seen his efficient use the right hook counter in each of his last 5 fights and it would be a good weapon against Hattons left hook downstairs.

              Miguel normally fights at a much more measured and composed pace than he fought in the Corley fight. A lot of people gauge his abilities from that 1 Corley fight and I don't think thats fair. His defense is usually very tight and he takes a lot of shots off of his gloves and shoulders. I don't think Hattons handspeed would be fast enough to trouble him.

              Cotto is a bigger puncher than is Hatton and has a superior left hook. I also feel that Cotto's handspeed is better and his footwork is also better. I feel their body attacks are about equal, with Ricky going there more, but Cotto throwing harder, more accurate shots.

              Where I think Cotto is better in those departments I think Hatton is better in a few of his own. Hattons workrate is better, and that may lead to a situation where Cotto gets hit by a hard shot that he doesn't see. Hatton has also proved that he can take a hard shot from a big puncher, whereas Cotto hasn't proven this like Hatton. Ricky is effectively aggressive which would probably play into Cotto hands if he were a lot more experienced, but he's not and the N'Dou fight showed that he can be given fits when he's extremely pressured.

              Overall, I've been saying for a long time now that Cotto is the future of 140 and somewhat boxing in general. I'm one of his biggest fans and would pick him to stop Hatton late in an excellent fight.

                Cotto is the next Trinidad, He will be good until he faces a good boxer then he will get schooled.... and that boxer is Mayweather, and i do believe hatton could beat him. Hatton has a good chin, can punch, and has good stamina, Cotto will be in trouble if he even wins his next fight.

                      hatton is the strongest 140 pounder period, no one is stronger not even cotto! cotto seems in fights when ive seen him to be disinterested in boxing a rough fight and just seems really uncomfatable with it! he has great technique but remember hatton hasn't shown his boxing skills to his true ability yet! i would go with a hatton TKO round 5! sorry just not a cotto fan after the last fight!
