Frozen,I do not see JLC koing Hatton,I just don't see it.How?

im going by how jlc looked in the castillo/corrales 2 fight, and how hatton looked against collazo (even though it was at 147, hatton looked pretty bad skillwise.........let alone physically)
this is a very bad matchup for hatton, stylistically, and jlc is a bad man.

rickys a good guy and a great fighter, but this is one fight that i feel is going to make him look pretty bad

hopefully im wrong, though. because a victory over jlc would put hatton into elite status
So you basing your opinion on Castillos 'best' performance which was at a lower weight and on Hattons worst performance of his career which was at a higher weight than he always fights at??

Seems crazy to me to only base it on them fights. Hatton is an animal at 140lb and although he seems to have stopped using his boxing skills since the kostya fight, that dosent mean he doesnt posses them anymore.

If hatton has the full 12 weeks to prepare and goes back to using his skills as well as his marauding style i cant see anybody beating him at 140lb.
