Thread: Cotto, Hatton and Amir Khan

Quite simply, I feel Cotto is working his way up as he needs to, a very good victory against that prick Judah, I think Cotto really came good as the fight wore on.

Hatton, again a good performance, let's not get carried away, Castilio is on the slide, but none the less Hatton's victory was good and for me suggests if he could keep that same pace. intensity and stamina for 12 rounds he can beat and bully Maywaether.

Amiar Khan, like I've said from the start, overated, he's being used more for the publicity of British Boxing, he's not that good, yes I agree he can progress, but as far as I can see he will NEVER be what the great expectations expect. He will come very badly undone by some decent fighters and destroyed by some top fighters.

How can you call yourself reality check and suggest that Hatton can beat and bully Mayeather?

I would suggest changing your name to Wacko but that's been taken, maybe certifiedinsane would suit?

Hold up a second, I said IF and it's a big IF, Hatton can keep up the same intensity, as he did for the first 4 rounds against Castilio and against Tszyu, then yes he can Bully, because many thought he woudn't beable to bully Tszyu and he did.

Look I'm not a Mayweather hater, I respect his boxing skills, I just feel it's possible, I suppose Bully may be the wrong word, but he can definatly be the aggresor and stay on his chest similar to the fight against Tszyu.

I hope the Mayweather/ Hatton fight comes together so we can all settle the issue. IMO Floyd wins a wide decision.

Cotto is a force @ ww. Since moving to 147 he has been nothing but impressive. Even in the Urkal bout he handled an experienced opponent with relative ease!

As for Khan I'm not totally sold on him yet but the following of his has only got to be good for the game.

Question: Anyone got some opinions on John Murray? I've seen him fight a few times on tape & it looks like he's been matched tough so far. Seems to do a lot of things right. So will he go far? & any chance of a Khan match-up somewhere down the track?

Looks like he's learning all the fundamentals against the right type of opponent. I like how they're letting him fight all over the world. Good experience for him although I think he needs to step up his opponents in the next season.

As for him and Khan, I can't see it unless Murray wins a world title first. Too much of a risk for too little gain for Khan.

I think your right about the bout with Khan. I saw him in the Mendoza bout he looked like a solid prospect. Your right it's time to start making a move!
