First off, yes I'm aware that Mancini's prime was 135 and Hatton's 140. But Mancini was a big ass lightweight and I think coulda carried 140 pretty well in his prime. But since this is a MM, we'll make it a catch weight of 138 fight. Most will probably favor Hatton, but both at thier bests I see it as a pretty even fight. Mancini would NOT be an easy opponent for Hatton. If a semi-prime Arguello was given hell by Mancini, then you bet your ass Hatton would as well. Ricky has exactly the type of style that Mancini loved to face. Hatton is the naturally larger man, but Mancini was BULL strong, and idk if Ricky could man handle him that easily. And Mancini could fight at a high pace over the entire fight WITHOUT grappling in the process. Pretty much 50-50 in my mind, and I can actually see Mancini drowning Ricky in deep waters late, esp if its a 15 rounder.
