    I think Southpaws can give hatton some trouble, thats his weakness.. early in hattons career he fought a southpaw which he beat on points (the fighter was a journeyman),then I saw Magee vs Hatton, Magee is southpaw.. Hatton got in some trouble in that fight and he was Magee was the 1st person to knock Hatton down in hattons pro career, hatton won that fight on points put close (115-112)

    Now Hatton has'nt fought a southpaw for a long time...until now he is going to fight Luiz Collazo, and Collazo is a slick southpaw, what do you guys think? I think Hatton obviously will win this fight but do you guys think it will be as easy as it sounds?

    My point is I dont think Hatton can Knockout Southpaw's.

          Im suprised at some of you guys actually thinking Hatton will KO him in a couple of rounds, it won't happen yes obviously i would love it too but it won't. This fight will be much harder then you think for Hatton and i can see it going the distance, Collazo is a good fighter and will give Hatton problems..never the less i'm backin Hatton with a UD

                The story out on the main page is that it was HBO that wanted Collazo for Hatton,meaning, it was not the Hatton camp that made the choice. Also, the story goes on to say that in a sparring session the author witnessed, Hatton appears to have fighting a southpaw down pat. The author says the way Hatton fought his southpaw sparmate in the latter rounds of the session was "textbook". Of course sparring is not the same as fighting on fight night.

                  Boxing is not supposed to be easy guys! Unless you work for certain promoters that is!
