matthew hatton

what do you boys thing of the younnger hatton?
i've seen him a few times now and i was especially impressed with him on saturday. good right hand (maybe better than ricky's) but don't think he goes to the body as well as ricky. i think he's ready for a step up in opposition. he's not ready for the big players at welter quite yet, but would fair well against someone like shambra mitchell or maybe even gatti. i might be a bit hasty but i thought he loooked good on saturday.
wot do you boys reckon??

i reckon he'll fight well for 5 rounds, be f*cked after 8 and just hang on to win a unanimous decision. Remind you of anyone?

lacks speed and power and intensity; otherwis elooks ok, i doubt he will be anything more than a 'good' fighter',maybe a birtish and/or eupropean title in the future, but at a world stage i don't see him making any impact, maybe a wbo belt if hes very lucky
