I like Ricky a lot and hope he can shine. But it seems to me that he is not quite as popular as he has been. So this thread is for people who want to try and spread a little hope and sparkle and a little bit of razzle dazzle for this fight.
Come on, Ricky!!! :cool:
Ok First off 50% of what Ricky used to be wins this fight
Paulie cant punch for shit so Ricky will run through face first and smash his body to bits forget any shoulder roll this will be all out pressure I think he stops him by the 9th round
"Ho my lord":o this thread will turn nasty with none loving Hatton fans!Quote:

Hatton's had a serious jolt to his confidence. If he's not in shape and totally focused on business instead of looking ahead to bigger paydays, Malignaggi might very well box rings around him. Malignaggi is no joke.
That said, Hatton should get the decision. He swarms better than Cotto, and he keeps the pressure on.
I didnt read the small print. ButI like to think that that smallprint was absurdist and way off.Quote:

Come on Rick- Knock Him The F#ck Out!
Just for me- BODY SHOT KNOCK OUT!
Miguel Cotto walked through Paul Malignaggi shots aswell and he still received a very tough fight. If Paul Malignaggi can be in that kind of form again, it will be a very frustrating night for Ricky Hatton.Quote:

And i really hope he still isn't leaping in with shots, because thats what got him in trouble against Floyd Mayweather, Juan Lazcano. And say what you want about Paul Malignaggi's power, but he can still knock Ricky Hatton down on a quick counter shot if Ricky Hatton gets too wild. Which showed against the very tough Lovemore N'dou.
I think Ricky Hatton wins by 12 UD though and i will be rooting for him all the way here.
Showtime recently replayed an old Malignaggi fight and it was either against Ngoudjo or N'dou and while Paulie "the tickler" Malignaggi show great footwork and work rate, he was still taking stupid, unnecessary shots to the face simply because he didn't keep his guard up.Quote:

If he does that against Hatton he's going to get his bell rung, or as the Brits say "get sparked".
Paul Malignagi is the typee of opponent you should fight only when your at your best, hes gonna run and turn anmd flick everything out, if Hatton doesnt look better boxing wise than he did against his last opponent I think he might lose a decision.
Hatton is very strong at this weight but Paulie wont be there for him to maul, I dont think Cotto is as strong as Ricky but is Ricky jaded, his last fight said nothing because he waas gonna look crap against anyone, getting back down to weight and after a big loss, if Mayweather has trained Ricky well hopefully he does stop Paulie and hes very capable of it.
If he does anything but stop Paulie I would be dissapointed but I dont expect it.
Yes but he wasn't on form then thats the difference, i expect to see a 100 percent Paul Malignaggi tomorrow night. Considering the venue and the name he is up against he will be well up for the fight, i don't see how any fighter couldn't be.Quote:

One last thing i don't really think Ricky Hatton has the kind of power, to KO Paul Malignaggi with one shot. Only to the body which could happen, but i honestly doubt it Paul Malignaggi mai look like an 80s boyband reject.
But he is surprisingly tough and i expect this one to go the full 12, with Ricky Hatton winning a decision.
