Malignaggi looked pretty poor overall and was fighting a guy with one eye for a good half of the fight.

I find the prospect of Hatton/Malignaggi a bit pointless now. Hatton will just need to be 50% to beat this Malignaggi.
keep in mind that Malignaggi was fighting a guy who came in overweight...

Boxing - Pablo Cesar Cano misses weight, is ineligible for welterweight belt - ESPN
True, but you only needed to look at the guy to see he wasn't carrying muscle. A bit like Morales really, just a tad less bloated. Hardly Mayweather against Marquez. Still, overweight is overweight, but Malignaggi could do nothing with a one eyed guy either.

Cano is a fighter who fights flatfooted. Hatton as far as he was, is a fighter who fights on his feet, gets close and messes you up. Paulie doesn't have the legs he used to, so even if Hatton has lost some of his own, 50% will do.
