    I don't know why everyone says Chico has so much power. He keeps his punches short, which is good for power, but I don't see anything special about him. He likes to fight inside because he has unusually short arms for his height. I would take Hatton over him anyday, and PBF would do the same thing to him this time. I think he would take Coto though because he has skills and can punch, plus he's taller. But seriously why do so many say that he "opted" to stand in front of Castillo? The guy just isn't a boxer, and he has all kinds of trouble with fighters that actually move and use the ring. He might make some noise at 140, but I don't think his chin would hold up any higher than that, and if he moves up, the fighters will get taller and thus have less and less of a disadvantage and more chance to nail him.

      I disagree. I think Chico his P4P the hardest hitter today. Also Tszyu never landed a big punch on Hatton in that fight. Chico doesn't have a glass chin, his problem comes with his legs. I think his legs are weak. Chico never been hurt seriously in a fight. He's been down many times. The 2 times he lost by TKO was 1 the doctor stopped the fight & 2 his corner had enough of Mayweather beating him. The guy never gives up, I don't see Hatton having a bigger punch then Castillo. If he brawled with Castillo, then he will have a easier time brawling with Hatton. Chico will win by KO against Hatton or Cotto.

        hatton isn't a knockout artist, he wins by TKO most of the time because of his heavy hands, which in my few is just as effective! i can't see Chico going over 8 rounds with hatton, style wise i think chico will get murdered by hatton, even witter came out and said corrales must be on a suicide wish to go against hatton with his style

          If this fight happens then be ready to put some real $ on it. Because I will bet anything on it.

            Hollister...

            It's because he has truly hurt every single guy he's hit cleanly.
            He never hurt Mayweather, because he never hit Mayweather cleanly....

            He is definitely the sport's best puncher.

              i think floyd would beat him again, bad matchup for him stylewise... i make cotto the favorite over him too, although i give him a punchers chance of taking cotto out... not sure about hatton though...

                Maybe in his weight class, and I would even question that, but you're saying that P4P he is the best puncher in boxing?

                  Yes, I am...he is the best puncher in the sport.
                  His left hook is the sport's single most dangerous punch.
                  & his right hand is more powerful than most other fighters, as well.

                    Well, I guess I would just have to disagree...

                      Who hits harder, in your opinion ?
                      Who drops, hurts, & KO's world-class opposition the way he does ?
