I am choosing a non-peak Hatton because I think peak Hatton destroys Khan, but I find this matchup more interesting. Hatton isn't at his best but is still dangerous. Khan has his strengths, but also such obvious weaknesses.

Who do you have winning?
Khan now would still beat prime Hatton.
Sorry for the smiley.

None of us should forget Hattons own INCREDIBLE footwork. He closed down opponents like no other. On his feet and bang, there goes the gap. Khan can get off great combos, but if the space is gone, his effective work is erased. And Hatton would constantly cut the gap. Then the body work comes in, then he works up top and then separate. Rinse and return.

I really struggle to see Khan going the distance with Hatton, my only worry is Hatton not quite being the same as he was against Tszyu. The output was good, but not energizer bunny good. The chin had been checked. Though in truth Khan is knocking nobody out either. Zab? Pfft.
