Corrales has been permanently damaged by Castillo, and would be absolutely trashed by Hatton. Corrales is a bean-pole at 135. Hatton just beat a much bigger man in Collazo, who is a southpaw with respectable skill. If you have any confidence in Diego beating Hatton after what happened to Diego in his last fight, no one should listen to your betting advice.

    Furthermore, you are using triangle theory, which has no place in boxing. Hatton struggling against Collazo does not mean he will struggle with Gatti. You need to have your head checked. Styles make fights, period. Hatton beating a fresh, in-his-prime Collazo by a close margin does not in any way fortel Hatton losing to an old, sluggish, and oh-so-hittable Thunder Gatti.
    Just watch man we can debate all we want but only time will tell.... And Corrales name is only brought up against Hatton becuz his a household name around his divison the fact is at the current time they fight 2 class away from each other and a fight between them is forecasted down the line,but i think if corrales can beat castillo again the he'll be able to foght a competitive fight with Hatton, same for Castillo!(correlas will beat Cast)

            I do have to agree that he has been overrated by SOME, though. For example, a few posters who said Hatton will dominate mayweather on the inside and knock him out, and the posters who said he will be number 1 p4p and that sort of thing. Ricky still has alot to prove in my opinion, but i wouldnt say he is overrated by most boxing fans.

              ricky is a great fighter and it has been a pleasure watching him over the years. i think the general consensus on hatton is that he is a face-first brawler. he is a very skilled, multi-faceted fighter with an ok defence that might let him down against mayweather. mayweather hasn't shown me much at 147 to prove to me that he's a world beater - at least not yet.

              fighting two former 140 lbers coming off losses does not enhance my opinion on the floyd.

                    Stop hating ****head. What exposed are you talking about? That's what happen when you are hating. You lose your objective reasoning.

                    Don't you realize that that was HATTON's first fight in the division? Do you understand how it is to put up another 7 lbs and fight a bigger opponent? If you don't then shut the **** up.

                      Of course he understands, he's Donald Hoskins, soon to be the greatest fighter that has ever been. If you'd taken the time to see his boxing video then you would soon see that his defensive skills, accurate punching and stamina are FAR superior to Ricky Hatton's.

                      I suggest you watch this masterclass in boxing and learn to appreciate Hoskins in all his glory. One day you'll be telling your grandkids "I knew Donald Hoskins when he first got his name 'The Greatest' and before he went on to change boxing as we know it and surpass Ali's legacy"



                      ALL BOW DOWN AT THE FEET OF THE GREATEST BOXER OF THE NEXT 15 YEARS...THE ONE AND ONLY DONALD HOSKINS
