On November 22 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, the two most extreme exponents of each genre will meet when light-hitting but lightning quick Paul Malignaggi (25-1, 5 KO) meets rugged mauler Ricky "The Hit Man" Hatton (44-1, 31 KO) in a junior welterweight showdown.
When the UK's Ricky Hatton climbs into the ring Saturday, he's staring down his defeat at the hands of Floyd Mayweather last December. His opponent, the affable and engaging Paulie Malignaggi is banking that a fight with a star like Hatton could propel him toward bigger things. Can he afford to let Hatton stand in his way?
Paulie Malignaggi has undergone multiple surgeries on his right hand and realizes he might be fighting on borrowed time. A victory over Ricky Hatton would be the biggest of his career, but could also be his last. Hatton is in a must-win situation. A loss could jeopardize his chances for a fight with Oscar De La Hoya. Are the sands of time running out for both of them?
RICKY HATTON'S GREATEST HITS
One of the biggest fan following in boxing, with some hard-hitting challengers: Luis Collazo. Juan Urango. Jose Luis Castillo. And the unforgetable defeat at the gloves of Floyd Mayweather. Whatever you say about Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton, Hatton's pugnacious style is always engaging.
See you at the Fights and Thanks for your time.
