I personally think Sugar Shane is gonna put him down, if this fight does occur, becuz Shane is faster, the better boxer and at times can be physicaly! ID PERSONALLY LIKE TO SEE HATTONS !ST LOSE COME TO PBF, BUT OH WELL GO GET HIM SUGAR!
    how in god's name could you have tszyu ahead in the 8th hatton was clearly winning

    and dont even attempt to judge hatton on 1 fight that's plain ignorance

    i do belive that mosley would be hatton's toughest fight yet though and it could go either way

      Hatton only held like this in one fight and that was because he was fighting Kostya Tszyu...think about it, if you were fighting a guy that is known for his heavy hands, that has knockout power when his arms are fully extended, has been inactive/hasn't fought a real fight in 3 years, 35 years old, had trouble making weight, etc. wouldn't you do the same?

      If you look back at his other fights, he uses pressure only, no grappling.

        I have doubts that come in all shapes and sizes that Hatton will go through with this fight. Mosley is a step higher than Hatton will ever reach.

          Shane, Oscar, Forrest, Trinidad, etc. all had a good chance of beating him, and probably still do.
          You are a tool. The Light Welter/Welter divisions aren't quite as good as they were then, but now they are still the most talent-filled divisions in the whole of boxing.

          If we use that rationale, then then following people are also 'lucky': Cotto, Mayweather, Margarito, Judah, Harris, Baldomir...

            Hatton versus Mosely would be a great great fight. The style matchup is definately right for Mosely so I think he would win.

              Um i can't see Mosely winning this fight. He barley throws in combinations...and Vargas is a punching bag now and at the time of the stoppage Mosley was ahead by a point. Hatton my wide UD are late rd stoppage

                There's no link, it was on a TV Show. I can confirm (and upload, if you want) the show in question.

                They did say that Mosley was being looked at as a possible future opponent, yes. While Mosley's chin is solid, is it worth remembering that Hatton is a bodypuncher?

                I'd certainly be curious about the outcome...

                  if he beats this guy and beats mosley then what! whats next for him surely the disrespect will have to stop
                  that's the whole point if he wants respect he has to beat someone. him beating tzyu wasn't that big for me, tzyu was off for a while before that fight. what i'm saying is hatton is good but some people build him up as he is great and he's not there yet, and i don't think he could handle mosley
