too much pressure for chico's chin, but there is a big height difference

This would be a tough fight for me to watch, as they are both my favorite fighters. But i think hatton could pull of a win. When a fighter like hatton faces chico, hatton will take bad beatings but in short bursts. somewhat like the freitas fight.
But in the freitas fight, popo wore himself down a TON and top a bad beating on that ur gonna get KOed. Hatton has the best stamina in the sport right now IMO, and he wouldnt get exhousted.
And when chico fights inside fighters like this, his mocho-ness kicks in, and leans forward with his chin flappin in the breeze, and decided to fight his opponents fight. Thats what makes him such an exciting fighter, but its also his downfall. If hatton can stand up through 12 rounds, i think he will win a close decision.
But i doubt hatton could KO chico. I just dont see it. I think Hatton could KD chico from an awsome body shot, but i dont see a KO at all. Corrales has an amazing heart and will keep getting up.
Mind u, i can still see carrales winning, but i think hatton would win. Undoubtedy this fight would FOTY meterial. Pretty much any fight Hatton or Corrales can take right now has FOTY marked on it.
If corrales were to win, he could still fight hattons fight on the inside. Hed have to time hatton while on the ropes or get hatton in a corner and then take a step back and box him. If they go to the center of the ring, then Corrales must box from the outside and catch hatton with uppercuts or hooks while hatton jumps inside. He'll have to take some nast body shots to get them off, which takes quite a heart to pull off. Thats part of the reason why hatton is undefeated. If chico can pull all of this off, he will undoubtedly win!!Comment

hatton cuts to the body in the early rounds leaving corrales guard low in the later rounds and pops him flush on the chin

i think people also tend to concentrate on the holes of hatton's face-first style but what is most overlooked is hatton's athleticism and speed. his speed is very deceptive and it's going to cause corrales problems. many people also expect hatton to gush wide open - again not the case anymore. hatton had reconstructive surgery on his face and i doubt he'll have a major cut unless he fights a dirty fighter ala maussa.
the kind of pressure hatton brings would be tremendous for ANYONE at 140. this is not just a pressure fighter who comes forward with the threat of punching and aggression while missing shots, he brings it all night and accurately too.Comment

i'm a diehard Corrales fan, but i think Hatton is too big and rough for Corrales.
i would be rooting all the way for Corrales but i think Hatton can get a win over Chico..........sad to say but i got to go with what i feel....Comment

This would be a great fight that could go either way. Corrales' power would definitely be a major factor. If Hatton can handle it than I say he breaks Corrales down to a late stoppage. If Hatton can't handle it I say Corrales by mid to late stoppage.Comment

He is some rules in boxing its like a rock/scissor/ paper thing.
A Swamrer beats a boxer, a boxer beats slugger and a slugger beats a swamer.
basically Hatton is a slugger and Chico is a puncher-boxer.
techincally speaking Chico would win by KO.Comment
