Miguel Cotto Vs. Ricky Hatton-- Who will win???

[No-mas-tias]

Many people in here are totally wrong, Cotto is the much bigger guy and has more power, he's too big and Cotto won't let him bully him, if Hatton starts with his dirty work, Cotto will also elbow him and get dirty.

Cotto has a ton of heart and has a street mean streak in him that he displays when he's in the ring. Hatton is a very good fighter but he beats his opponents by outworking them and being rough and tough with them , I don't see that working with Cotto, he's as tough as they come.

Plus, we'll have to see how Cotto does from here on in terms of getting rocked because Bob Arum said a few weeks ago Cotto had surgery on an ear drum he damaged in the Corley fight that was causing him balance problems, which may have been the reason he was getting rocked, he took better shots from Bailey and didn't even flinch, that was before the Corley fight,I think his chin is OK.

Naw, the Zab/ Mayweather fight is already a done deal (if Zab wins tomorrow) and it's a non-title fight-

Witter looked poor in his last two fights, but that may well just be because he has had his fill of European level fighters, Kotelnik's shown himself to be solid after Junior narrowly beat him (I hear Kotelnik is a possible Cotto opponent as well, he'd be a respectable keep busy opponent for Cotto I reckon).

Some sources seem to be suggesting that the WBC Welterweight title is on the line in the Floyd vs Judah fight as well.

He may not have a choice. Hatton would outwork anyone.


Hatton really isn't usuallythe initiator of the dirty work, but if he is being fouled he'll foul back.

Boxrec has it down as a title fight for the WBC.


Hard to know what to believe.

Looks like the pr guys are the only ones that think that Cotto has an opportunity vs the hitman, but reallity says something different! PR has his last hope in Cotto and that's what makes them think he will prevail against the greatest!, wonder why that fight is not around the corner?, how come Maussa went to England to try to unify while Cotto was wearing his "pantallas" and shaving his eyebrows?
If Cotto's managers think that he is not ready for the big 140 lbs fights and wants him to move on to 147 lbs, there is no way Cotto's name will be undefeated by the end of this year, there is no chances for him against Hatton (in 140lbs.), Mayweather, Judah or Margarito!, Sorry boris!...

Cotto beats Hatton 7th round TKO on cuts.
Sorry but Cotto's style is way more technical and Cotto has the ability to cut very well so look for the end result of that fight to end on cuts!

Oh and for our last hope, I think you don't know much about boxing,....... at least Puerto Rican Boxing;

We have Ivan Calderon, Cotto, Juan Diaz, JOnathan Oquendo, Cintron(look for him this year),and Jose Nieves. So you are very, very wrong when you say he is our "last hope".
