one dangerous horrible bloke
They both beat him up good and proper, thats good enough for me, I dont care who did it the better.
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

Hatton: the stoppage, the amount of rounds won, and the fact that Paulie's clinching (read: hanging on for dear life) is what kept him on his feet.
"...went 12 rounds with Ali, and never took a backwards step."
The first 5 rounds went to Cotto but Cotto broke his hand mid 5th round. If Paulie could not get a round or two in against a one armed man then we have a problem. Paulie did a lot of holding against Cotto too. It was hit and then hug, wash, rinse and repeat. Cotto busted up Paulie worse but Hatton did better only because Hatton had all of his weapons. Paulie admits he is not the same fighter he was against Cotto that he was against Hatton. Paulie has fear and that fear came from Cotto and he was afraid it would happen again against Hatton and btw Cotto was also weight drained in his last fight at Jr Welter Weight just in case you forgot. I think Cotto could still move down to Jr Welter weight and put a beating on HattonConsidering it only took Floyd one punch to knock out Hatton, I think Cotto could knock Ricky out too

Eh?
How many natural Welters has Cotto fought and how many did he beat?
How can Cotto be techincally better when Ricky totally outclassed Paulie and gave away one round whereas against Cotto people thought Paulie was tough because he was hurting Cotto and winning rounds
Maybe Cotto is over rated![]()
