Yeah that really is how I see it going; Ricky would fare better early on, he would have to. Like Asian Sensation said basically he'd of been eating alot of punches last night; but though he does seem to wade in and gets tagged alot I can see him being way more effective and keeping Khan locked up better than Kotelnik, and not just letting Khan get off all night without hurting Khan's body. But in a long fight; unless Hatton can keep him from that pace he could end up a mess, cause' he block punches with his face unlike Kotelnik. I said 60/40 but it probably is more 50/50.

I'd love to see how the Brit crowd would side on this; I'm assuming more in favor of Hatton. Wonder how Khan would take that Those things do matter sometimes.
He coped with the Barrera fight & the Hatton weigh in where he was racially abused en masse, so I think he would be fine. I'd actually be interested to see how much support Khan had. If it was even audible when he came out it might affect Hatton more, as he's never had to deal with any hostility at his fights. But, I suspect it would be about 80/20 in Hatton's favour. I still reckon this is a 50/50 fight, but if Hatton comes out anything like he did against Pacquiao then Khan will avoid him & probably take him out in the middle to late rounds
