Ricky Hatton v. Paulie Malignaggi

[leftylee]

I'm getting high right now.

Hatton is gonna whoop this cocky Italian's ass.


C'MON RICKYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!

[hackey]

starting to get ready for this now, can't wait.

I know Paulie has a granite chin. If Hatton wins this one by KO, it would be from a massive liver shot.

But I voted Ricky by decision anyway.

[XaduBoxer]

I think Maligfaggi is too slick and too fast for Hatton and will win via UD...

Faggi slapping the oncoming Hatton then run to get out of the way...

I've gone Ricky by decision. I only see Hattons high pressure on the inside being too much for Paulie but I don't see Ricky being able to stop him after seeing what he withstood from Cotto.

Yes but Lovemore N'dou hurt Paulie in his last fight, but was too slow to capitalize, Hatton will not make this mistake. If Hatton has him hurt he will capitalize. Hatton is way better than the version of Ndou that fought Paulie in Manchester. OK Malignaggi had problems with the hair but even late on, he had major problems with Ndou's pressure and both fighters were tiring towards the end. I see Hatton's pressure being much more effective, I do expect a better version of Malignaggi than the one that fought in Manchester, but Hatton will be better than against Lazcano and way better than Ndou was in Manchester. I go with Hatton UD or possibly TKO10-11

i really do think Hatton has way too much for malignaggi, as long he performs near to his ability.

[Tam Seddon]

If a peak Hatton or anything like turns up then it shouldnt be close .... BUT Im going for Paulie to cause a points upset ... even tho my logic says different .... this is one of them fights that ya some times just get a feeling about, which is why I voted the way I did ..... not logic based in anyway lol .. just a feeling I have re the fight .. & I really hope Im wrong

Ricky Hatton may be the most overrated fighter of this generation.

That's a bit harsh. His only failure thus far has been against a future hall of famer and the best fighter on the planet at this time.

Well, he got knocked out by a guy who is really not a puncher - certainly not at 147. Knocked out by a guy who fought 75% of his career at 130/135. Mayweather is/was a terrific fighter, but RH didn't even touch the guy. Floyd was more troubled by Judah than by Hatton.

Hatton has been often ranked as a top ten P4P. IMHO, he doesn't merit anywhere near that, and I give Mayweather little credit for that win.

fair enough, that's your opinion, I disagree, but each to their own.

Hello Dios

Neg rep this fraud everyone, he is an alt.

[hackey]

they always turn up don't they. Anyone think Bautista has it in him to get far in the game?

[Julius Rain]

this should be a good scrap, ricky look vulnerable to hooks in his last outing. paulie is no puncher but if he can bring in a good game plan and execute, he can pull off a win over hatton. ricky needs to fight smarter, he can not let himself be one of those fighter that never adjust or evolve. he needs to develop a better game plan other then come forward and try to overwhelm the oppenent.

Good luck to both, should be a good win for both guys.
