    He'd beat Maidana, Ortiz, Peterson and Alexander.

    Now if the Khan that fought Maidana shows up, Hatton would beat Khan too.

    Bradley beats Hatton him IMO.

      Maidana's pressure couldn't beat Khan. Ricky's wouldn't have either.
      Hatton is so much quicker on his feet than Maidana, he's more physical with guys, better stamina.

        Physically Floyd looked much better at the weight than Hatton, Ricky just didn't look as powerful as he did at JWW, but without Cortez setting him up for big shots, Hatton's work-rate and determination would have taken it the distance and at least made it a close fight. Looking back Ricky was naive to think they were going to let him fight his style against a cash cow, but that's the way it goes in boxing, it's rarely straightforward.

          I guess we will have to wait to see what Khan achieves before he retires and compare it to what Ricky did.

          Then we might have a better idea.....

            Hatton lost because Mayweather is better.

              We'll never know, because he never got a fair shot and the only other guy that beat Hatton, Mayweather refuses to fight.

                I bet you weren't complaining about the officiating in the Tszyu fight.

                  Khan is a good physical talent, but there are holes in his game, ones that Hatton could exploit. Particularly the Khan showed up to fight Maidana.

                  If Bradley were a harder puncher and Ortiz weren't seeminly a mental midget, they'd have very good chances of beating Khan IMO.

                    Let's be honest. Mayweather is on another planet in terms everthing. No way Ricky would have beaten him. No officiating would have prevented his KO by Floyd.

                      Exactly this, to me its as clear as day, you'd have to favor Hatton in this matchup from what we've seen of Khan.
