I don’t understand why everyone get so disappointed about Hatton next opponent? Hatton is top notch and will thrill the fans no matter who he fights. Urango is a very good undefeated fighter with nice power and determination I don’t understand all the negativity surrounding this opponent ?
Seen as tho ricky is bigger and stronger then mayweather, do you not reckon it wud be a good idea for ricky to get him at a heavier weight as possible?
Mayweather is some 2 1/2 inches taller than Hatton , and has more reach. , as for Hatton being stronger, I think he is when he is at 140, but I don't think he is at higher weight . If you step back and look at the 147lb division lots of the top guys are 5”9 and up, and could easily hold 168lbs with ease, Hatton has no business getting in a division where he will always be lunging to try and land one shot, its not like the heavyweight division where a lot of the big tall guys are sloth slow. these tall 147 lbers are fast, move well and have excellent stamina. Hatton would be way over his head, its simple mathematics really.
Ok but look at mayweather. Hes at welter and hes a natural lightweight. I'm tired of hear how hatton couldn't handle the weight. The man walks around at 170. If anything he should feel stronger at 147 cause he don't have to drain as much.Its just funny how floyd can move up 3 classes and be ok but hatton can't even move up one.Collazo didn't give him problems cause hes big he gave him problems cause hatton ain't really a pound for pound fighter. Hes got 1 style and if that don't work then he is all messed up. Thats not pound for pound.
the problem is hattons height hell have a major disadvantage if he goes 147 or above and also his success at 140 was due to his relentless attack and his handspeed which he will lose at any weight above 140 and also with him being so inactive he will lose the ring sharpness he needs
