Does Marcos Maidana "murder" a prime Ricky Hatton?

[M Bison]

I wanted to pick its a 50/50 fight but If I was to choose between the two I think Hatton at 147lbs is just a bit better than Maidana hence why he gets my vote.

I'm a Hitman fan but I find it very hard not to picture Maidana hurting Hatton and stopping him sometime around the 9th-10th round.

Chino would have been murdered to the body by Hatton imo. I don't think he lasts the distance. Cotto would be a bad matchup for Marcos as well

Maidana has a nice jab.. That would be a factor in stalling Hatton and disrupting his rhythm enough to land a sledgehammer shot in between clinches.

And inside... Devon blinded and stunned Maidana with fast combos at mid range, THEN clinched, which served to pacify Maidana. That's far different than someone clinching Maidana and proceeding to try to maul him to death. You think Maidana gonna let a guy maul him to death without scrapping back? Another thing, are we talking about the Maidana that fought Devon or the one that's obviously learned from the Devon debacle?



Morales?




I like Maidana's angles better. His range.. His power...his jab.... His head movement...and I have to give him benefit of the doubt on chin because Maidana has never been stopped and Hatton has... Three times.

Hatton does have nice foot speed and some decent hand speed though.. Good scrap but edge Maidana. Hatton finds some success in close with Maidana holding his own for the most part, but Maidana's range is the X factor and hattons foot speed actually works against him as he walks into a Maidana bomb.

I win the internet

At 140 I'd take Hatton. At 147 Chino lands enough to get a close MD on The Hitman.

Morales?

Oh yeah i forgot about that.

Going life and death with a retired featherweight. Good call










(i do actually like Maidana btw)

Interesting fight, hard to call a winner.

Amazing what a win over Broner can do.

Tyszu may of been past prime but that win is probably greater than Maidana's whole resume. Hell his stoppage of a shopworn Castillo is a better win than Broner, Karass, Ortiz and the likes.

Maidana is Brandon Rios 2.0

He has finally learned how to slip a jab, tomorrow we'll be teaching him how to write his name.

xD hahahaha

I know you love to exaggerate but Maidana IS better than Rios.

That would be one hell of a fight. Endurance and will would decide the victor.
