Don't sleep on Charlo vs Hatley!

[John Locke]

I haven't seen many people talking about this fight, probably because most don't know much about Hatley and assume he will be a walk in the park.

Hatley was a very good amateur, after Andrade and Thurman, he was the best welterweight (152) on the American scene, before turning pro. He's been disappointing as a pro so far, largely due to his shaky chin, but he's got good skills along with a nice workrate. With Jermell not being much of a puncher, it's not out of the question for Hatley to get the win in this one. In fact, I'm calling it now, if this fight goes the distance (not saying it will), I think Hatley gets the win and sets up a great fight with Andrade, resuming their rivalry from the amateurs.

cmon, you guys tried hyping another haymon bonanza just a couple weeks ago and I had to tell you all it was bs. Why are you doing it again? Hatley is literally nothing.

Who's 'you guys'?

Hatley isn't with Haymon and I'm 100% sure you've never seen him fight, so even if he turns out to be 'nothing', it doesn't mean you knew what you were talking about, it just means you guessed right

Would'nt be suprised at all if Hatley wins. I don't think a lot of Jermell and he has'nt really looked good in 2 of his last 3 fights. Vanes basicly gave away the fight to him and Jackson was making easy work of him till he got clipped. Hatley, as you say has been disappointing, pretty much on a bum hunt tour up until he fought Mundine, but he looked really good in that fight. I know a lot of people don't really care for Mundine, but he is a guy I have a lot of repsect for. Been around forever, fought a lot of top opposition, has good wins, and willing to fight anywhere from 154 to 175. I actually give Hatley a lot of credit for that win, especially the way he won.

Spot on.

I don't think Jermell can match Hatley for skill, I would confidently pick Hatley if it wasn't for his piss poor punch resistance.

It wouldn't surprise me if this turned out similar to the Charlo-Jackson fight, with Hatley getting stopped while up on the cards.

Also Hatley hasn't fought since the Mundine fight (over a year ago...), that might be a factor, if he's rusty and doesn't start sharply, it could be over early.

[MasterPlan]

Charlo will dominate this fight.

Being outboxed by Jackson is no shame. Jackson has literally outboxed every single opponent that he has faced. The only reason he has L's on his record is because of his pathetic chin.

Jackson is so frustrating and i feel that more than his chin, it's his focus what gives him problems.

Well when your suppose to be a top 5 guy, a guy who is top 15 at best should'nt be taking you to school. Maybe it was a product of his trainer change or maybe he took him lightly, but either way that was a terrible performance.
