Hatton would put a nasty beating on haugen. Not competitive at all. Greg is better suited at 35 and didn't have the power to keep Ricky from mugging him inside. He was tough though, so I imagine he lasts the distance and loses a 11-1 or 12-0 decision.

Haugen was ring savvy enough to give a fighter like Hatton fits. Although I believe Hatton would outwork him for a UD...i don't think it would be anywhere as lopsided as Saad thinks it would be.

Haugen was a better boxer than Ricky, SD for Greg.

Haugen should . He was at least a level better. A bit better boxer than Hatton , which is not saying much. Hatton couldn't is not going to over power him either.
Haugen probably wins by late TKO or fairly convincing decision.

Hatton would win this rather easily. He'd have quite a large size advantage and Haugen is just not quick enough and he doesn't hit hard enough to prevent Hatton from overwhelming him.
