Ricky Hatton Is Not A Great He Is Just Average

[sonofisis]

Yes, this has to be one of the more ****ty and less thought provoking threads here lately, other than all of Viva Mexico's.

Hell of a fighter.

Won the lineal 140 championship off of one of the best fighters of the past 10 years. That has to count for something.

I consider him the kingpin of the 140 division. He has a few bigger fish to fry. If he fries those fish, he's in the hall of fame.

Not an all timer, but I view him as a great fighter, not a 'special' fighter like Pryor, Tszyu, Mayweather, Duran, etc.

He's a great fighter, but an average boxer.

Hatton is a good fighter but will not be rememberd as a atg

[Mr. Ryan]

He's the undisputed LWW champ...

First things first, he isn't undisputed because Witter and a few other blokes have titles in that division. Hatton needs to stop thinking so big and get back to fighting meaningful fights. Beating Junior Witter is a good regional fight and will get him back some quick credability.

yep, that pretty much sums hatton up
he's fooled a lot of people into thinking hes a great fighter

[SkillspayBills]

He is above average and you can't fault someone for beating 43 of the 44 fighters put in front of him. Aren't you a fan of his? I have no problem with you criticizing his resume but to say he is average WOULD warrant you being called a basher.

[msagrain]

Never said he was an ATG, But come on hes definitely not an average fighter.

compare him to all the LWW champions of all time and he is average.

yes and 40/41 of them were bums.


i aint a basher its just the truth that people don't like to hear.

And you would say the same thing about Margarito, Williams and Cotto if Floyd beat them...
