    Castillo by decision, i think its a bad matchup for Hatton, Castillo loves fihting in close, something Hatton likes to do.I can see a KO if Castillo goes to the body.I hope the fight happens here and not in Manchester.

      As far as my prediction for the fight-- not like Hatton will ever take it-- Hatton wins by UD or late stoppage. His body assault will be too much for Castillo to take, and his chin should hold up well against Castillo. If it's in Manchester he could probably smack him in the nuts a few times to take a bit more away, too, being that nothing will happen to him for it.

        Its a really good fight but Castillo hasnt got good enough balance or footwork. Hattons too mobile and wont be an easy target like Corrales was, plus Hatton looks stronger.

        It could be close but i'd favour Hatton to win this.

          Some say Castillo and Hatton are clones of each other. Non stop pressure.

          Neither fighter is known for their footwork.

            Castillo was able to target Floyd, who is a thousand times more mobile that Hatton is.

              Hatton is very mobile, Castillos a great fighter but his footwork is poor for someone at his level.

                hmm

                LOL what? I guess you haven't seen much of Jose Luis Castillo. His footwork his excellent. It's the reason he was able to beat Floyd in the first fight and get the better of Corrales. He knows when to step and move allowing him to get to guys who are "supposed" to be able to outbox him.

                Anyway...

                  correct me if im wrong:

                  the JLC/PBF 1 fight was the exciting and controversial one.
                  the 2nd fight was the boring but clean one.

                  im i right?

                      He showed he can get in and out quickly against Corrales last night. The fight will be just like Hatton's fight with Tszyu but Castillo is a much better inside fighter than Tszyu is. If Hatton thinks Tszyu was tough than Castillo will be tougher and better.
