Malignaggi-Hatton close, Paulie praises Hatton and calls him a "Great champion".

I got Hatton over Witter everyday of the week, but Malignaggi is too fast and too gifted to overlook and INO he would beat Hatton UD!!!!

Paulie could barely get by Herman N'Doo Doo. What makes you think he can UD Hatton in Manchester?

[Bukom Battler]

Hatton will beat Lazcano then beat Paulie. I can not see Paulie beating him based on his performance against Herman. One thing I do know is that Paulie will be in the best shape of his life against Hatton and will pose a decent moving target. If Hatton gets frustrated like he did against Mayweather then he could get cut. Again though, A Hatton victory for me.

As for Hatton v Witter, I look forward to this one in 2009. If Hatton retires without facing Witter, unless Witter losses badly soon, then only then will I say Hatton ducked him.

If Cotto couldnt stop PM dont think Hatton will be able to do it.

I disagree. Cotto at 147 is much better than Cotto at 140. Cotto puts more power behind his shots now. Ricky is better at 140 and against guys at the weight, his power tells more. I wouldn't rule out a stoppage.

I'm here.

At this stage every Hatton fight is a blessing. The man will not be around for much longer, so we shall enjoy it while it lasts.

Whats another blessing is the shallow limits of the light welters at the moment. This should see us being presented Hatton v Malignaggi, Witter & Torres in the next two years. Holt may be thrown in there too.

Ngoody-gumdrops came pretty close to stopping him.
