As the Hatton-Lazcano fight draws near, people in England seem only to be focusing on the fact that it's Ricky's 1st fight after the defeat bt Mayweather. More importantly, he's defending his linear light-welterweight championship against a dangerous opponent. I don't know much about Lazcano, but he's rated in The Ring Magazine's top 10 Light-Welters, which means he must be good. What has he got in his arsenal that could upset Ricky, and does anyone think he will cause an upset?

  1. Juan Lazcano is a very good pressure fighter, simalarly to Ricky Hatton.  If you watch Lazcano's fight with Vivian Harris where he lost a close decision, you will see that Lazcano was winning the fight when he was in Harris' chest banging away to the body, but he didn't do it consistently, which is why he lost that fight.  I favor Hatton in this fight because he has been more active and his only loss was to the best pound for pound fighter in the world, while Lazcano has not fought since losing the close decision to Harris last February.  Plus, the fact that Lazcano was better as a lightweight, whereas Hatton is the best in the world and current champion at junior welterweight.  I do however believe that Lazcano is tough enough to go the distance with Hatton and even give him some problems.  I think that this will be a very entertaining fight for the fans because they are both good pressure fighters and they don't like to take a backward step, and in the end, I think that Hatton will win a tougher than expected unanimous decision.


  2. He is a pressure fighter, typical Mexican fighter. If you want to read about this fight head on over to http://www.fightjunkie.com/predictions they have a write-up on the fight and also a forum where you can go and chat about this and many other fight related stuff.
