Does Anyone Think Ricky Hatton Is Looking Past Paul Malignaggi ?

[Kel]

You only have to look at the Cotto fight to see what a nightmare Malignaggi can be, he can take a shot and although not a KO artist throws lots of accurate fast shots.

It's going to be very interesting to watch.

[Preme]

Said all along, hatton will get his ass beat in this fight.

Ive only watched Malignaggis last 4 fights but ive seen absolutely nothing in those performances that makes me beleive he can win. I have been completely underwhelmed everytime ive seen him fight.

[Plopeater]

One things for certain, Malignaggi won't be looking past Hatton, he's to f***ing fat to see past

[Tysonbruno]

No he won't be looking beyond Paulie because he wants to shine in this fight and i don't think Floyd will let him.

[ono]

How can we speculate about what he is thinking? I'd imagine he's professional enough to not look past anybody.

Plus he'll want a quality performance back in America. I can see Paulie giving him trouble but it'll have nothing to do with Hatton's attitude and a lot to do with Paulie's skills.

I only see a problem for Ricky if he tries to become a "boxer" against Paulie because a "boxing" match he won't win...Ricky needs to apply pressure just like Cotto did and Ricky can wear Paulie down and at the very least get a lopsided decision if not a KO...Paulie takes a good punch but his body breaks down and Ricky's pressure can take advantage of that..If ricky allows Paulie to circle, stick and move look out because Mallinaggi is slicker than most people give him credit for...
