    Did Mayweather ruin Hatton's HoF chances?

    I was back watching some old Trinidad tapes and reading some old Trinidad stuff. I remember Tito boasting about "three Gold Medals". Meaning that he had defeated three former Olympic champions. Actually, he said "thee gole meyta".

    Note: David Reid, Pernell Whitaker, Oscar Delahoya.

    So I compared that to PBF saying that he beat the best in his era. Floyd has probably beaten only one Hall of Famer (Oscar Delahoya). Castillo, Corrales, and Genaro are iffy. Hatton has been mentioned as a potential HoFer, but I think that may be off the table now.

    AFTER THE KO LOSS TO MAYWEATHER, IS RICKY HATTON A HALL OF FAMER?

    Yes. He has done enough in his 44 fights.

    Not yet. Ricky has more work to do. But he can make it.

    He probably won't get there. Even with a couple more wins.

    He definitely isn't HoF-worthy.

    His billy-goat impersonation ruined any chance he had. Forget it.

    There are plenty of hall of famers with knockout losses including Oscar De La Hoya. As Hatton's career is not yet over there's no reason why this fight precludes him from recognition, if his remaining fights go well.

      Yeah. But that's because all you gotta do to get into the HOF is suck a few ****s.

      They let anybody in. Gatti will be in the HOF: bet that.

          Depends if he wins his next fights and who they are against. Because Mayweather might be rememberd as an aATG

            Genaro wont get in. Guarantee that.

            But yeah, if he beats Malignaggi and maybe picks up another title. He's in.

              If I was your ally in your eternal Klitschko shaft-stroking campaign, you would view it differently.

              Just vote, *****.

                Yeah, maybe if he wins another title- but I say Hatton probably won't make it.

                  Is that Witter and Malignaggi?

                  I think it's gonna be hard to explain NOT fighting Witter. A top guy in your own division in your own country who has a legit belt and is calling you out.

                    Another as in "another weight class", or if he unifies at 140?
