    I think Hatton would take a decision win over Diaz.

    I can see Hatton mauling and bullying Diaz and working his soft looking midsection.

    Diaz has a good chin but Hatton might maybe be able to stop him with a body shot.

    Diaz has fought at 144 earlier in his career, sogoing back to 140 to fight Hatton might be something he'd do for enough money especially as his titles wouldn't be on the line.

    Juan really impressed me tonight, one thing that he has over PAC, Hatton, Katsidis or any of those guy (besides workrate) is that jab, in a fight against Hatton I think that would make all the difference, when he chose to use it, it was very sharp and quick.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Good observation k-Sheep
    Your right when Juan used his skill it worked hit thumped Julios face with 3 jabs in a row.

    Can you imagine the type of collotion this would cause with Juans style and Hattons style or Pacs style where Pac likes to trade?
    Wow!!

    I agree Hatton too strong. I know Juan started at welter but hes a natural lightweight. This would be a mismatch!

    I think the only mismatch would be for Ricky. He's only good on the inside, but Juan's workrate inside is much higher than Rick's. Juan is 5'6 with a 67" reach, while Ricky is also 5'6 with 65", and Juan's body seems much larger to me, so the size to me is really in favor more of Juan IMO. I don't see Ricky pushing this guy around at will for very long, as he'll have alot of punches to contend with. I see a ud over Ricky if not stoppage in the late rounds due to cuts, and Ricky would be cut. He'd have to do to Juan what he did with Castillo, otherwise a victory to Diaz. JMHO, but what do I know

    This fight was very nearly Hatton's HBO debut in the US, if only Diaz had been a few years less green then. Diaz has many qualities of Ricky Hatton, I just feel Hatton is quite a bit more powerful, and a bit more economical, and is generally bigger and more experienced, however if he sticks at 135lbs I think he can be dominant for a long time in that division, he can be a TOP champion in years to come, he's ahead of most of the current superstars at just 24. Maybe he could even catch Hatton at the tail-end of his career. Very exciting future either way. Imagine Diaz v Katsidis! FOTY?
    Remember the good old days, we miss you Marco!

    finally somebody who puts diaz into perspective.

    he wouldn't beat hatton.....end of story.

    he's good....but not great.

    Sorry you people are more then allowed to hate me but Juan could not break a potato chip with his punchs he has weak power and is pessure fighter means bad news once he meets a guy that has the power to knock him out and Hatton would knock him out he could not hurt hatton he has no power i mean he hit that guy 12 times in a row and it seems like the guy was not hurt in the whole fight i mean i think the reason they stopped it because he was lossing but i do not think he was hurt bad juan is good but if he moves up he is done and Floyde as much as i do not like him i rather see him fight then Juan the guy does not do it for me at all what happen to the Mosleys, Dunrans, Whitakers, Oscars, and JCC's i think he is doing well because the light weight is such a weak division i hope he gets knocked out and we can have a champion that is a good boxer and slick or a pessure guy who knocks people that fuck out and i am sorry i am negative i just do not like the guy sorry

    I had to laugh when I read your opening cause I've felt the same way about him since the fight where he cried in the ring afterwards. It was a few years back and I can't remember which fight it was, but even the announcers were supprised when they announced him as the winner. I'm not downing him for crying, in fact, he was upset because he had a bad performance and figured he had lost so I don't hold it against him. The problem is, ever since that fight, I've wanted him to lose and I DONT KNOW WHY.

    IMO, he is a very pleasant person so I can't hate him for his attitude. I like the way he fights so I can't hate him for that. The only thing I finally boiled it down to (and I still haven't fully convinced myself that this is the reason) is that it must be because he's really good at what he does but it's not like he needs the career. He's a smart guy who's going to be a lawyer some day and maybe it's just that I would rather see someone with that kind of talent have only boxing on his mind. I don't know.

    Actual a fight that interest me is if he would move up and fight Paulie i just wonder how that would go neither could stop the other because both lack power but either Juan would try to swarm him but i go either way Puile i think could pull a win off if he stuck to his jab and move because he has alot of speed and has good foot work i just wonder how long Juan going to stay lightweight for because he will eventually going to have to go back to lightwelter i just wounder when he is going to do it

    There's only one ricky hatton.

    At 140 Ricky is the main man.
    It would be a great scrap, but Juan's style would mean he's playing to Ricky's strengths and Ricky would most likely TKO him or beat him on cuts.

    cc agreed completely.

    Juan is good but i think Hatton is better in most departments....and he has the work rate to keep up. When someone with more power, better boxing brain and better movement can match you punch for punch.....your guna be in trouble.
