Hes not,Paulie looked terrible.Honestly,I think both are off in overall showings.Taking into consideration that Hatton was coming off of KO loss....Some guys can never come back from that.Both favorites were stunned tonight.Paulie has looked on the other side recentley...but with his "style" could give Hatton problems but we have to see if tonight was The latest version of Hatton or a rugged rebuilding fight scapping off the rust....His defense was invisible ,and a tad sluggish but I'd still like to see him beat the weeve & braids off of Paulie.
I think Paulie's lack of power would hurt him badly. You can see Hatton would be in some real trouble against a sharp shooter type counter puncher with some power cause he just walks in with his head up high, or he leads with that jumping left hook and he's open for a lot of punches, especially the left hook. Its not like Lazcano's some counter punching expert with huge power and look what he at times was able to do. Paulie just really jabs and the occasional flashy combo. Not sure that would be enough.
Hatton haters would love the idea of an ODLH-Hatton fight.

Look at the work Lazcano was able to do at times with his left hook and then replace Lazcano with ODLH,
Hatton would get hurt.
