His only chance IMO is to catch Hatton with a peach on the way in, which is extremely unlikely.
I don't think anyone can honestly say this is anything more than a showcase for Hatton. Lazcano is a nice guy and may get some support for that, and people that are seriously anti-Hatton may cheer for him. But his chances are very poor.
Hattons chin in general is usually pretty firm.
Walked through some beautys against tszyu and got tagged more than enough against collazo.
Even with hattons weight draining and his recent illness i dont see lazcano throwing anything that ricky should be worried about.
My only fear for the fight is hatton not getting to grips with juans style and it turning into a contest whereby ricky has to make the fight as scrappy as possible in order to win himself rounds.
