    at 140 hatton is one of the best combination punchers i have ever seen and with power at that weight

    and castillo is a natural 135 pounder

    i think hatton would stop castillo if they fought at 140
    Castillo has fought at 140lbs before its called Corrales vs Castillo II. I dont see Hatton stopping Castillo. Hatton's power is that heavy handed power not that explosive power, he wears opponents down and is very aggressive on the inside and was able to box well on the outside only against suspect competition. Castillo's boxing skills are highly underrated due to his aggressive style but if you look at his fights you will see that he is very well schooled and comes in behind a jab, with head movement and angles. Castillo is polished silver where Hatton is raw iron. Castillo has an excellent chin and was only stopped after he partially punched himself out in the 10th. I dont see Hatton KOing Castillo. I dont really see Castillo KOing Hatton but if anyone is gonna get KO'd I think its Hatton.

        Any fight between Hatton and Castillo would have a higher than average chance of being stopped on cuts.

          Could you please expand on your reason why it would end with a body shot and why Hatton would win

            basically hatton at 140 has the potential to stop any 140 pounder

            i dont see him knocking castillo out with a punch to the chin as

            castillo's chin is something else

            but castilllo is a come foward fighter and i feel hatton being naturally bigger would eventually wear castillo down and stop him late

            hell i would'nt be surprised if castillo won

            but if this fight was made my heart and my head would say hatton

              It's a huge step back. Anyone who says otherwise is delusional. Urango is awful.

                Dont fool yourself, Hatton was hurt and if Collazo landed a few more, he would have been hitting the canvas, Hatton had to hold on for dear life, he was off balance and just held on, he was definately hurt.

                The fact that Hatton's promoter told ********** and admitted that Mayweather tried to get Hatton for a november 4th date shows me time and again his team avoids Mayweather. In all honesty, I know after Floyd fought Gatti and Hatton beat Tszyu, Floyd was also trying to get the fight at 140 and they didint want it then neither. So I dont know what to say about that.

                  fact is he lost the opportunity to fight mayweather long time ago and i cant respect him for that

                  urango is a weak fight
                  Ben Rabah's a bum and so is Harris, rematch with Collazo, now we're talkin. I don't think he wants to get it on with Witter, Witter's been calling Hatton out for years, and Hatton's people never wanted any part of it.
