Miguel Cotto vs. Ricky Hatton at 140 pounds. Who would have won?

[SPREAD]

A prime 140lb Hatton beats a shaky 140lb Cotto IMO

I can just see Hattons jittery style, the angles, footspeed, everything giving Cotto an absolute nightmare.

But its pointless going into styles etc because as always this will only be a Boxingscene fan favourite poll with everyone voting Cotto with very few actually basing it on anything.

You have a point, Cottos chin was suspect at 140.

Cotto...easily.

I think Hatton couldve stopped Cotto wouldve been a war though. Cottos chin was shaky as hell at 140. Even Malinagii rocked him.

True, Cotto's chin was shaky at the weight. But, I just don't see Hatton beating Cotto. Hell, what was Hatton's best win at 140 pounds?

[V.WEBB]

Just thinking back, Cotto didn't really fight Murderer's Row at 140, but again, I just like Cotto in a fight with Hatton at 140 pounds.

Even the British experts were saying that he needs to stay away from Cotto. That Cotto was moving to better places.

I know UK love him the same way we loved Tito. But talking about Hatton glory days when the only credible name in his resume is Kotsa. And the people that keep repeating Cotto being chinny at 140 are only thinking about 2 of his fights, Corley and Torres, but avoid the other opponents. Opponents with a good KO ratio. I guess the noobs like to pick whatever they want to make their point.

Paulie laid one on his ass too. Cotto had a suspect chin no matter how we slice it. Hatton was strong, fast, had damn good foot speed, good power and was relentless at 140...and HEALTHY.

I like his chances over Cotto.

Kosta Tszyu was Hatton's best win at 140.

Certainly better than anything Cotto did at 140.

Based on style match up, I've always thought Cotto inevitably beats Hatton down late. Cotto's chin at 140 was a bit shaky, but he also came back to win both fights he was hurt in. Malignaggi landed on Cotto, but hurt him? I don't think so. Malignaggi simply was a very good boxer and gave Cotto issues trying to land, but again inevitably



Hatton wouldn't box with Cotto, so if it becomes a fight, I think Hatton leaves lookin like
