    This is a close fight that is basiclly a toss up.
    Chico would be powerful as all hell at a different weight class, and he can take some big shots as well.
    Id say Chico Ud but id be rooting for Ricky.

      I see Hatton going back to his mauling style he used on KT and just mug and bully Chico for most the fight and stop him past 10. This will not be as flashy a fight as Chico - JLC, Hatton will not allow clean inside punching.

      A fun sounding fight that will turn out disappointingly one sided.

          I think it is very possible for corrales to beat hatton. But Remember

          tsyzu had one punch ko power also and didn't do a think to hatton.

          this would be a hard fight to pick

            Hatton didn't allow him to hit him properly.

              Chico is already slow at 135 so it's a wishful thinking if you'll expect the guy to move faster at 140.

              Hatton will be fighting at his natural weight class so I'm giving him all the advantages to take this fight.

                Where do you get Chico is slower from? Again, I compare it to Floyd. Some people say that Floyd looks slower in certain fights but certain fights he fights differently. Against Zab, he fought at a slower pace and slowley walked him down. Against a guy like Margarito then Floyd would move fast in and out.

                At 140 they said Floyd looked slow at the weight when he fought Bruseles but he slowly walked him down and that was his style for the fight. Then against Gatti he looked much faster because his game plan was to fight faster and move in and out.

                Against Castillo, they fight in a phone booth, so its at a slowe pace but when he throws his combos its still fast.

                Hatton will fight at a faster pace, and therfore so will Chico

                  Bro if we're talking of this caliber of fighters height will never be a factor.

                  The fact that Chico never knows how to use his height advantage against his opponents as he has shown in the past, the height disparity won't even be noticed in this match up.

                      Where do I get? I don't have to get it anywhere. That's my observation. Yeah he Castillo fought in a phone booth, that was the first fight. On the second fight irregardless of the controversy on the weight issue, Castillo beat him up to the punch. On his winning effort against Popo, he was clearly being out boxed until he hit the guy with a solid shot that slowed Pop down. So if you're saying that Chico is fast, that's just your opinion do not impose that to me.

                      Yeah Hatton will fight a faster pace and therefore so will Chico. Yeah, up to the 12th round?
