cotto vs. hatton thoughts NOW?

[Konstantin]

I would have to go with Cotto in a 50/50 fight. I think hes a little too slippery for Hatton and has harder more accurate punches.

And I dont think that Hatton taking Kostyas punches really say all that much about his chin. Like Hatton said Kostya punches best when theyre leaning back. Hatton was diving in because he didnt want to be cause with the full extended force of Kostyas punches, which I might add he did pretty well. But Cotto doesnt need to extend he can do short punches quite well.

Hatton would kill cotto, Cotto's last fight was not impressive

I gotta go with Cotto on this one. He's is a big ass jr. welter.
He'll probably come in at 150-155. I just cant see Hatton taking Cotto's body shots or head shots. Cotto's technique is pretty sound, while Hatton is pretty wild and sloppy.

Who knows if Hatton can take Cotto's power shots.And dont compare Cotto the ZOO, their two different fighters.

Cotto is naturally bigger and has youth on his side. He's a pretty smart kid and i think he'll pick apart Hatton.

Dont get me wrong, this wont happen in the first half of the fight but i see Cotto winning in the later rounds.

It would be a good fight I think they both have punching power. Ricky has faced the toughest fighter in the weight class in Tszyu. We know now that Ricky can take a pretty good punch but I still think Cotto isn't ready to face Ricky yet... he still needs to iron out some defense issues in his fight game. Hatton will have to give Kostya a rematch first in my opinion before facing anyone.
