Not a chance. He's a huge underdog, if anyone was backing Lazcano they should slap a bit of money on it because they'll get a good return. Can't see Ricky doing a Witter to be honest :rolleyes:Quote:

i don't see it happening, Hatton will put on a great show.
Yes he can Juan Lazcano is a tough fighter and was pretty good back in his Lightweight days, but saying that Lazcano's best performances were at Lightweight he spent majority of his career at that weight. And since moving up he hasn't really made any noise. I also think his best days are behind him, i expect Hatton to win but not as easily as some people expect.
He could hang with viv harris when they fought a little while back and if he had of pushed that little bit more coulda got the decision but hatton is better then harris and in his prime like niether harris or lazcano..
And he will be true to his word and stand with hatton, its a style that works well for him and hes a tough fighter but i dont see him winning more then 3 odd rounds..
I just think its happened for him already and he'll be stopped late..
It'll be entertaining though i think.. Hes got a good style to match up with and its a name for hattons rec to pad his record before some bigger fights..
Hatton at 140lbs is an incredibly strong fighter.
Alkthough not a concussive puncher, he is possessed of enough venom to force the opposition backward and damage the. We have witnessed this in such attritional fights as Tszyu, Urango and Maussa.
In Lazcano Hatton is faced with a fighter used to forcing opposition backward himself. He will walk toward Hatton and Ricky as I said has the power to resist.
I wouldn't be surprised If we see Ricky box Lazcano for a couple of rounds, moving in and out. But eventually he will make the move and attempt to Stop Lazcano.
:foruml10gc5:
I think the guy throwing knifes at Ricky Hatton during his entrance will cause more panic.
Yeh apparently thats whats happening for his entrance.
Anyway i think Lazcano will cause plenty of panic. He was a very good lightweight. 5lbs aint so much. He should be very strong at 140. He's coming to win. It will be competitive.
I think Hatton may stop him late on but who knows. Maybe points 117-111 ish for Hatton would be my prediction,
I can't see it.
Hometown, in front of 55,000 of his fans, on the pitch of his footy team...
Nah, I'm not gonna say it's impossible but that's a lot of motivation for Ricky isn't it?
Lazcano is past his prime. Fighting above his best weight. Coming off a loss. And has been inactive for over a year. I'll be surprise if he makes it to 5
The devil in me wants Lazcano to make a good showing and give Ricky problems just to hear the fallout.
The devil in me wants Lazcano to spark him ;D
Not really.. well sort of ;D
I'll settle for powderpuff getting beat (to scupper their plans).. and brother Hatton getting beat.
I doubt it....but i'll pick him since he lives out here in sac.
Not one single panic.....
I don't see how some people feel that Lazcano can posses any threat to Hatton.
I really want Hatton to lose! The guys a good fighter but I hate him and his fans.
No. I would be shocked if he did. If Hatton hasn't started to fade then Lazcano should be made for him.
The hispanic isnt capable of causing any panic cuz he doesnt have the capability to do so.
He's lost to guys that went on to lose to the big names so he never quite made it. Harris beat him and then got knocked out by Witter . Castillo also beat Lazcano and went on to get knocked out by Hatton.
Its not a good fight IMO but Im still gonna buy it cuz im a sucker for these things. Big crowd good atmos but the action wont be great . Laz will put up resistance for a few rounds then predictably crumble. The only drama I envision is if Rickys gets cut . Otherwise a straight forward fight which sets up the formailty of a Malignaggi fight later in the year .
what time does the fight start in the UK?
I understand the Witter argument but i don't understand the Castillo argument. Lazcano lost to Castillo at Lightweight when Castillo was in his prime at his prime weight. That was 3 years before Castillo fought Hatton, where he obviously wasn't comfortable at the weight and looked like a shot fighter in his previous fight to the Hatton one.Quote:

In my book that tells me this is a easy fight for Ricky . He may make it hard but he should be fighting better than this if he wants to make any waves.
Im solely going on 4-5 youtube clips of juan.
Wily opponent that doesnt do anything spectacular hence shouldnt cause ricky much concern. Does like the occasional stand and trade and that in itself could be his downfall if he trys to go toe to toe with hatton.
Awkward style should get him through the first half of the fight but after that id be very surprised if he went more than 9 and extremely surprised if he lasts the distance.
Hatton TKO - A hard fought scrappy contest that eventually gets stopped around round 8!!
I don't think this will last more than 7-8 rounds, Hatton to win via KO, but i wish that Hatton gets Knocked the fuck out something silly like he did against Mayweather.
If your boy amir ever gets unleashed on him someone is definetly going to get KTFO`d............and it certainly wont be ricky!!Quote:

I'm sorry but he's not all that impressive to me... I'm not a hater and wish him the best but he's got some proving to do... If he does what he says he's gonna do and come over here to make a name worldwide then more power to him...Quote:

He just has a long way to go to convince me... But i hope he does
I have a hard time picturing anything that Lazcano could do to bother Hatton. He may win a few rounds, but he doesn't have the power to slow Hatton down, he doesn't have the speed or accuracy to come out on top during inside exchanges or to catch Hatton on the way in.
His only chance IMO is to catch Hatton with a peach on the way in, which is extremely unlikely.
I don't think anyone can honestly say this is anything more than a showcase for Hatton. Lazcano is a nice guy and may get some support for that, and people that are seriously anti-Hatton may cheer for him. But his chances are very poor.
Hattons chin in general is usually pretty firm.Quote:

Even with hattons weight draining and his recent illness i dont see lazcano throwing anything that ricky should be worried about.
My only fear for the fight is hatton not getting to grips with juans style and it turning into a contest whereby ricky has to make the fight as scrappy as possible in order to win himself rounds.
Hatton has a very good chin... People forget how strong Floyd is. By no means is he the hardest puncher(even close) in the div... But he hits clean constantly and has good pop on ALL his punches.Quote:

Hatton won't have a problem with Lazcano's power but he will need to keep it a scrap...

Most hatton fans heading to City of manchester stadium will be hoping ricky gets on him right from the first bell and turns the contest into an all out war.
I on the otherhand would much prefer to see ricky use some of his old boxing skills and not be afraid to float in and out at times even if it means he sacrifices a KO win.
Sheer agression will beat lazcano, it`ll probably see malinaggi off, but against your PBFs, cotto`s and margaritos ricky has to learn to alter his style every so often!!
Hatton won't have any problems turning it into a scrap, Hatton does have a good chin, but everyone has that chance of getting caught just right to go good night. Like I said it is unlikely, but it is Lazcano's only chance, he can't win the in or out fighting IMO (although there shouldn't be much outfighting anyway).Quote:

I recieved a -0 rep comment from Khan_no_1 or whatever the tool's name is that reads as follows.
"YOU ARE A PRICK, AMIR WILL PROVE YOU WRONG YOU WANKER"
I have one or two things to say about this... Khan is not world class yet. He will not be world class in a year either. Khan has a long way to go before he's tangoing with the likes of Casa and Campbell. WAKE UP KID... (I bet you are... 17? And for the record, if you're over that age then temper antrums are not socially acceptable) You're being fooled by smoke and mirrors.
I would like to see Khan succeed but he won't be ready for a title in a years time... As I said, I wish him the best and hope he succeeds...Now run along and go play cops and robbers.
Will the Hispanic cause panic? Only to his own cornermen
