At 147 Ricky Hatton vs Tim Bradley

[Larry the boss]

I think ill pick the one who hasnt been snorting coke the last few years

[Rome-By-Ko]

Current Hatton loses, prime Hatton wins.

Any Hatton loses to Timmy B...

Hatton was never right at 147. His only meaningful fight before Mayweather was against Luis Collazo, which I thought he lost. Which probably got him the Mayweather fight. Bradley-Hatton would be far more competitive at 140.

Bradley isn't great at 147 either. I think the Hatton who fought Mayweather at 147 beats Bradley and he beats him at 140 too. That's no slight on Bradley, I just think Hatton who walked down the likes of Tszyu was too strong and active for Timmy who does not have the power to keep him off.

Now? who knows where's Hatton's at, that's something we'll (hopefully) see in the Autumn. You'd have to give Bradley the advantage at this point, particularly at 147.

Regarding Collazo, Ricky found it tough but Luis is a genuine WW. To put it into perspective the only genuine WW Mayweather has ever fought is a past prime Shane Mosley and he got rocked the fcuk up (okay there was Baldomir too but he was not very good).

I always hear Bradley does not have the power to keep guys off of him..Yet never see anybody on him...Strange...

Well you know if fighters like Mayweather, Collazo and Tszyu couldn't keep Hatton off them, it's difficult to see how a fight with Bradley would be any different.

When thinking about this fight as put forward by the OP, the question you're asking is whether Bradley would beat a prime Hatton in an inside fight (because that's what it would be), personally I don't think he would.

[Rip Chudd]

Would of been a great fight with both fighters in their primes. I'd have to go with Bradley

[spoonwars]

Bradley gives Hatton the Witter treatment... and then doubles it.

To be fair, Bradley seems like he's snorting coke with all these ridiculous things he's saying to chase a second Pacquiao fight.

[El Angel]

Prime for prime at 140, I have to pick Bradley. I think there is a clash of heads and Hatton gets cut bad, Bradley outboxes him and counters him all night. At 147 now, Bradley beats him worse.

Bradley does not have to fight on the inside..He would adapt to Hatton and then outbox him...
