    Surely, moofo, you can do that. Hatton's whole career. Just one. (note: 38 year old Freddie Pendleton was not prime. And his 25 losses PROBABLY meant that he wasn't elite)

    Have u ever heard the saying "dont answer a question with a question"? Just answer the question. Ricky isnt the one running around claiming to be the pfp#1 fighter in the world/Best boxer to ever lace up a pair of gloves. So dont you think it would be a bit sad to say that Floyd hasnt faced not 1 fighter who was prime and not coming off a loss since leaving 135?

      Apparently KT was Spent even though he dealt with Mitchell easier than Floyd only 6 months prior.

          Yeah.. that's great criteria.. .That Tszyu beat a shot fighter a couple of rounds faster than Floyd beat a shot fighter. Great boxing analysis. You are very knowledgeable.

          Kostya Tszyu was 36 years old, inactive, and coming off a series of surgeries.

          I can kick Ali's ass today. Impressed?

          Delahoya , 2007 @ 154 >> Tszyu, 2005 @ 140.

            You better pray that Mayweather wins without getting hit once and having 100% success rate with his punches because that is more or less how the fight is going to transpire according to you.

              Have you got round to ranking the other eight men Hatton and Mayweather have fought in the last two years?

                Amazing how an inactive fighter does a better job than your P4P kingpin eh?
                What does that say about Floyd , ....Doris?

                  AT THE TIME THEY FOUGHT......

                  1) Oscar Delahoya, A-
                  2) Kostya Tszyu, B
                  3) Carlos Baldomir, B
                  4) Zab Judah, B
                  5) Louise Collazo, C
                  6) Sharmba Mitchell, C
                  7) Juan Urango, C
                  8) Arturo Gatti C
                  9) Jose Luis Castillo, D (totally done)

                  And I've been generous on two occasions.

                  One question I ask myself is "How did that guy look in his NEXT fight?"

                  In sum:
                  (Delahoya + Judah + baldomir + Mitchell + gatti ) Is greater than
                  (Tszyu + Urango + Collazo + Castillo)

                  Delahoya - TBD
                  Tszyu - Retired. Further proving he was fried.
                  Baldomir - 12 rounds with Vernon Forrest
                  Judah - 11 tough rounds with Miguel Cotto, KO'd
                  Collazo - 12 rounds with Mosley.
                  Mitchell - Decision win
                  Gatti - TKO's an undefeated Euro champ
                  Urango - TKO win
                  Castillo - TBD.

                  What hurts hatton is that Tszyu was obviously at career end, and castillo looked TERRIBLE. If Castillo was vintage, or if Tszyu had come back to look decent in his next fight, then Hatton would get a lot more credit.

                  And, of course, Delahoya at 154 is just by far the class of that list. By far.


                  Is that fair?

                      Yes.. that is meaningful. Very meaningful.

                      Ali got knocked down by Frazier in a loss.
                      Ali went another 29 brutal rounds with Frazier

                      Foreman blew Frazier out early twice
                      Foreman knocked Frazier down ten times

                      Soooooo, meaningful.....right?

                      Shane beat Oscar twice who beat Mayorga badly who beat Forrest twice who beat Shane twice.


                      Moofo, learn the sport. Please. Knowledgeable fans don't use those triangulation theories. Different night. Different fight. ....but if you need those theories to prop up Hatton's record, i'll give you a pass.
