    Hatton Needs To Win Big

    Later today, undefeated IBF 140 pound champion Ricky Hatton (39-0, 29KOs) will clash with WBA 140 pound champion Carlos Maussa (20-2, 18KOs) in a unification showdown.

    Now that reigning WBC junior welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. has leaped into the welterweight ranks, the winner of this bout will be recognized as the number one fighter in the junior welterweight division.

    The cagey and unorthodox style of Maussa is his ace in hole. As witnessed in his bout with former champion Vivian Harris, he throws punches from off-balance positions and always gives his opponents a false sense of security.

    Against Harris, Maussa seemed to always appear to be unsteady on his legs and wobbling around when Harris connected with any power punch of significance. The problem in that fight, is that Harris was also fooled by the false pretenses that surround the physical appearance of Maussa.

    As the bout with Harris went on, you were able to slowly dissect how Maussa was luring Harris in the trap with his unorthodox fighting skills and witnessed the inevitable knockout that won Maussa his title. [details]

    Hatton should win this easily. Mayweather going up has nothing to do with who owns the division. Hatton beat Tszyu to own the division, Mayweather beat a guy who won his first title at featherweight and a guy who is the real life rocky if he were from canada.

      As far as I'm concerned Oliviera, Tackie, Phillips, Tszyu is a MUCH better resume then Ndou, Corley, Gatti, Bruseles.
