But he still would have lose to corey spinks.And I still maintain that on may 5th, Oscar Delahoya would have beaten damn near every WW, and he would have demolished Ricky Hatton and anybody that Ricky Hatton has ever fought.Comment

u obvioulsy werent here for the pac nutthuggen eraI don't even wanna think bout how crazy and twisted this board will go. People have been hating on me for making Kelly Pavlik Appreciation Threads, calling me a nuthugger. I am just really pumped and happy that Pavlik won and did it in impressive fashion. If Floyd KO/TKO's Hatton I gurantee you we will see the most ridiculous nuthugging hate threads that Boxingscene has ever witnessed. Unlike the Pavlik haters who refuse to give him props on his performance, I will man up and give Floyd mad props if he finishes Hatton because Taylor and Hatton are both Elite Grade A fighters
that was without question the worst of timesComment

Thats impossible. Even the mexican nuthugging cat compete with what we get now from a SMALL minority of posters. I mean, at least the mexicans and pinoy's arent nuthugging a TOTAL DOUCHEBAG!!!Comment

First of all, every fighter's record is padded to an extent, and i wouldn't make comaprison's with Mayweather and Hatton's career records, but there is no doubt that Hatton has fought some good fighter's throughout his career...
Jon Thaxton... He was a good test for Hatton back in 2000.
Tony Pep... Rangey fighter who many thought would trouble Hatton.
Freddie Pendleton... Second Round KO.
Eamon Magee... An undoubted test at the time Hatton fought him, and a good fighter IMO.
Then there was Vince Phillips, Ben Tackie, Carlos Maussa, and Juan Urango, and those fighters have/or had the ability to trouble any opponent, and although Tszyu and Castillo were past their best IMO, there is no doubting that they were viable opponents... Hatton has proven himself a very good fighter, but obviously Mayweather will prove whether Hatton has the potential to become a great fighter.Comment

I could have listed that many fighters for Mayweather too. The difference is that those are mostly warm up fights for big fights. I mean, for god's sake, most of those are people he fought to get experience, like Pendleton (or was he the only title contender with 25 losses in history?).First of all, every fighter's record is padded to an extent, and i wouldn't make comaprison's with Mayweather and Hatton's career records, but there is no doubt that Hatton has fought some good fighter's throughout his career...

I just named Floyd's big fights, and laid out Ricky's big fights next to it.
Floyd definately has the better resume.Comment

Like i stated in a previous post... I wouldn't make comparison's with Hatton and Mayweather's career record, because that wasn't the point i was trying to make. Obviously, Mayweather has a better record, but my opinion was that Hatton is a very good fighter, who has fought good fighters, hence my comment in my first post... 'You don't go 43-0 unless you are a very good fighter!' And that being against a good calibre of opponents at some point along the way.I could have listed that many fighters for Mayweather too.

I suggest you should look back at some of your post's on this thread were you comment on 'Standards!' etc etc. There is no doubt in my mind that Hatton is a very good fighter, and again, the fight with Mayweather will prove whether or not he has the potential to become great.Comment
