      Hatton was extremly protected up to that point, and had faced **** for opposition.
      The same way you say that you've rarely encountered people who say Cotto will beat Hatton well, the same thing goes for me. I've rarely come across people who said Tzyu wasn't over the hill or on his way out of the sport.

      See, It's all a matter of opinion & who you ask.

        Hatton Elite? I don't belive that. He barley won against Collazo. Looked like crap and got cut against Maussa and wrestled Tszyu. Hatton is not a elite fighter yet.
        I agree, im glad hes taking steps, and think he can make a splash in the division. However, saying he could beat Hatton because of "skills" is a bit off the mark in my opinion.

            Did u watch any of the Zoo-Hatton pre-fight buildup?? Everyone was expecting Zoo to beat up on Hatton, but when Hatton preforms well, zoo is over the hill??
            Come on.

              Cotto seems to get hit with alot of right hands. But his chin holds up. He recently got hurt by Torres (Left hand) that started all the damage. And with Corley.... Right hand to the temple. Corley also rocked Mayweather. But i would say Cotto does get hit with alot of shots. We shall see on saturday how he improved in defense. Even though i think this fight ain't going past the 4th round.

                Everyone will see, and have to realize Cotto got rocked because he let himself get rocked, and simple adjustments will go along way to keeping him out of danger.

                  How is that? Hatton just comes to you. Puttin non stop pressure. Cotto could box, Also slug and take shots... Also recover pretty good.

                  Hatton is a good fighter. But saying he is more skilled than Cotto is not true. Cotto is a good boxer and slugger. Hatton just goes to you and rips your body up then clinch. Cotto also has a devastating left hook to the body.

                    Exactly, between the 2 Cotto's the better boxer and Hatton won't be able to get away with that punch,punch,clinch **** he's always doing. The minute he starts doing that Cotto's going to catch him with those great short punches he throws.

                      Hatton showed terrific boxing skill even in the Tzsyu fight, he didnt swarm til he had a done deal win. Thats why Hatton is a succesful boxer, he can adapt well and use many different styles.

                      I don't think you have seen any Hatton fights if you think Hatton just comes at you... Yeah hes got a A++ body shot that tears down stanima doesn't mean he just comes at you.
