And Miguel's ability to destroy a natural WW shows more than he can beat Quintana, it shows his skill set and power has not diminished on the move up. Hatton's move-up was not as impressive and until you see him fight someone else at WW (with adequate preperation of-course) I don't see how you could pick Hatton over Cotto at this point.
I don't see how you can pick Cotto over Hatton after only seeing
a few clips of Ricky
Your opinion is completely subjective then as your basing purely on seeing one fighter.
You won't change your mind cos ignorance is bliss. That's not a slight you understand but it's difficult to argue a point regarding these two now knowing that you actually don't know any different.
Lets stick to Cotto cos for me the Hatton debate ends here.
Ok here is my experience watching Hatton so you can Judge for yourself how much I know.
Hatton vs. Collazo full fight 3 times - then clips (this is the only fight I can judge Ricky on at 147 as it is his only fight at 147)
Hatton vs. Tszyu full fight at least 20 times as well as clips
Clips of Hatton vs. Tackie
Clips of Hatton vs. Smith
Clips of Hatton vs. Krivolapov
Clips of Hatton vs. Magee
Clips of Hatton vs. Maussa
Full fight of Hatton vs. Thompson
Various Highlight vids of Hatton
let me know where Ricky looks like a different fighter than in these fights and I'll watch, it may even change my opinion. But when a fighter has one style, I don't see how much you have to see of him to understand what he's capable of.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
