Cotto-Gatti or Cotto-Hatton may happen!!!
By Marc Abrams
According to the Atlantic City Press, Should Arturo Gatti defeat WBC Welterweight champion Carlos Baldomir on July 22, Gatti then would likely take on Miguel Cotto on December 2nd at Boradwalk Hall in Atlantic City.
In the event of a Gatti defeat or Gatti being unavailable for that that December 2 date, Cotto's promoter, Top Rank is reportedly very close to staging a fight with Cotto taking on WBA Welterweight champion Ricky Hatton on December 2nd in a bout that would also land at the Atlantic City Venue. An insider in Cotto`s camp stated: Forget Gatti a Hatton deal is 99% done.
Cotto-Gatti would be a treat but Cotto-Hatton would be an extravaganza

Cotto wins both fights, with Hatton being the tougher one

Finally someone is willing to step up and see who is really the man at 147

What about all the talk about Cotto-Castillo? Was that all just rumor? Was it previously true but then wiped once Castillo blew weight for Corrales III?
Re: Cotto-Gatti or Cotto-Hatton may happen!!!
I just have a feeling that Gatti is done at this kind of level. I think Baldomir will beat him.
But should Gatti him, him against Cotto would be interesting. Especially considering Cotto's dodgy chin. But even still. I don't think Gatti is much of a puncher at 147Lbs - I think Cotto would carve him up.
Hatton too.

cotto is a serious puncher but do you think he'll be right with the likes of margarito?

Hs gunna be suspended and shit i think, so god knows when he will be fighting again.
Cotto-hatton? would be a great fight. I think hatton has the better chin, that just might edge it for him; but saying that cotto seems to punch a bit harder.. or will a cut play a big part? so many questions lets seem them get it on and answer 'um!
Re: Cotto-Gatti or Cotto-Hatton may happen!!!
At 147,I se Cotto beating everyone including Hatton but not PBF. He could even beat Margarito,I'm not sure but anyway,I hope we see him fight Hatton@147!!!At 140,he will lose!! :-\

Why not, Cotto is the favourite.
Re: Cotto-Gatti or Cotto-Hatton may happen!!!
No way in hell Cotto loses to Gatti. And I would take Cotto in a late TKO over Hatton. I'm telling yall right now that once Cotto jumps to 147, he is one of the hardest hitters in that division with the added weight.
