Re: hattons body week target
Hatton was at no point hurt..
Especially the shot that you mentioned..
Dont believe me..I suggest you watch the fight again..
He winced from one shot that was low in the third and that WAS low.. Castillo landed a number of low/borderline low punches during rounds 2 and 3 and when he hit him with that one ricky turned his head whilst holding to protest to joe cortez
Dont believe me..
Here is the evidence

Re: hattons body week target
Mind you the evidence is not that ricky winced from a body shot..
The vid shows clearly that ricky was not hurt by the shot that cost castillo a point
Re: hattons body week target
hatton vs cotto would be a nice fight. prob won't happen for a while though as cotto's lined up to fight margarito if margarito beats williams. what weight would they fight at?
cotto is comfortable at 147. hatton fought once at 147 and came right back down. in an interview he said he was forced to take the fight at 147 but didn't want to. didn't look good against collazo and came right back down. he's good at 140 but if he moves up to 147 for cotto, cotto will give it to him and a slugfest. can see a lot of clinching by hatton if that fight was to ever happen also.
Re: hattons body week target
Hatton wasnt hurt
He said in the post match interview that Castillo has a history of hitting low blows right through a fight
So he wanted to complain right at the start before they started to take their toll
Seems perfectly fair to me
Re: hattons body week target
At 147 lbs I'd still lean towards Cotto, he just looks so powerfull. It was nice though to see Rick working the body again which he hasnt done much of lately, a one punch finish is always nice as well.
