How would Hatton do against the 'fab four' at 140?

[dans]

Bradley's headbutts would surely open up some nasty cuts on Hatton and make it very tough for him.

[RubenSonny]

I don't know, Khan could dance and make it ugly, and has the speed to keep Hatton chasing. Maybe I'm giving him too much credit.

Hatton would be able to get inside with little trouble considering Khans sloppy footwork, Khan has nothing on the inside at all it would be pretty much all Ricky there, what makes you think Khan is a bad style match up for him?

[New England]

Maidana wouldn't breathe with Hatton on him. Of those mentioned Khan has the best chance of beating Ricky, but I think a prime Hatton would've hunted him down, kept the pressure on and stopped him.

in the words of roy jones... Yall musta forgot!



ricky hatton was very fast at his best, and a very good fighter. the guy is going in the hof.
he closed the distance on floyd friggin mayweather when his best days were gone and fighting a WW


ricky thumps alexander up something awful. might even stop him.
likely outworks bradley, who would have serious trouble keeping ricky away with whatever he was throwing
and maidana... is maidana. he's just too crude. he cant create the distance

and khan's the only fight i think would be close
ricky might lose early rounds.
amir can throw fast and hard punches from a range ricky never had to deal with. he's almost six feet tall and hes got 74 inches of reach.
if he can impliment his gameplan his style is all wrong for hatton
but hatton's a nightmare for khan if he gets going.

he'd be all over amir like a cheap suit if he didnt force the right fight


amir khan takes breaks mentally and physically.

every fighter takes a breather during a hard fight
but the greats are always in the fight 100% mentally

i dont see that yet in amir khan
and at his best ricky hatton had it.


i think ricky picks a spot to make a comeback in the mid - late rounds and really wear amir down and stop him.

Maybe I shouldn't have said style, but with Khan's speed he could keep Hatton chasing him at the expense of making the fight boring. I don't think Khan would definitely beat Hatton, but with his physical gifts I think he would. And I'm sure Roach would have a way to neutralize Hatton's enough as well.

A prime Hatton would beat all 4. Dude was a killer at 140 Pounds.

Maidana was able to get to Khan and Hatton had extremely fast feet, much faster than Khans.

Maybe I'm just giving him too much credit than. I'll admit it's been a while since I've seen a prime Hatton fight.

Hatton would maul Khan. Rickys footspeed was insane. This dude was closing in on Floyd at times with no effort and we know how fast Floyds feet are.

[SirTomJones]

How do you think he'd do against these guys? He'll certainly get KO'd by Madaina.

Prime Hatton would have had Maidana on the floor coming from his body shots.

[ny123]

Maidana and Alexander arent that good in reality. Bradley and Khan would be very good fights im not sure how Hatton would do against either man.
