I have no reason to believe that Hatton has the power or the style to trouble Cotto (unless the fight is below 147, then the weight-drain will badly effect Cotto's punch resistance).

Urango was hurting Hatton to the body, imagine what Cotto would do to him.
To be fair to Hatton he was ill on fight night against Urango. He had a chest infection the week of the fight. There was an interview a few days before the fight and he looked and sounded like shit. IMO he shouldn't have fought, plus Urango is a decent puncher.

At 147 there would be no point but at a catch weight i think it's 50-50. At 140 i think the weight drain and Hatton's work-rate would be far too big a hurdle for Cotto to overcome.
