Prince Naseem VS Ricky Hatton

[Jim Jeffries]

I am smarter that that. I know the difference between when someone cites an example, or when they draw an analogy.

I thought so, but you inferred that the size difference between Naseem and Ricky was less than the size difference between Ricky and Pac. I'm not arguing that Pac is bigger than Ricky just because they're the same size and Pac has a longer reach, just that the 5 pound or so difference fight night between them will more than be made up for in the increased speed, power, and overall boxing ability of Pac, combined with Pac's advantage in reach. Before the Lazcano fight, people were talking about Ricky blowing out Pac. Even then I thought it would be an exciting, competitive fight and I still do.

Naz could have knocked out any middleweight in his prime. He had awesome power. Hatton has minimal power and how would his weight help him he would have no answer to the speed and power of Naz.

Any middleweight?!

Naz was awesome but he wasn't the Incredible Hulk.

It's an interesting one because Hatton and Naz are two of my favourite fighters ever. I think Naz could give Hatton problems but you have to be realistic and say Hatton, the heavier man, has to have the edge.

You'd really rather see that in 2008, or are you talking about 10 years ago?

obviously i would rather see that 10 years ago. but even now, i would rather see prince vs. pbf at a catch weight of maybe 135 lbs or somethin....

[FLYBOY]

pbf vs. prince would make a huge fight for both fighters in financial terms. i mean naseem has the biggest mouth ever and pbf aint that bad in talkin either

One problem is that Hamed is a fat pig now.

[boxaholic]

Hamed easy. More entertaining, has a better history than Hatton with better competition. Naz lost one fight. No other fight was close. Hatton got knocked out and had at least 2 close call fights.

Funny respones. Hamed was a featherweight and Hatton is a natural junior welterweight. He is too small, wouldn't have enough pop at junior welterweight to make Hatton respect him and i always thought that he didn't have the best chin. If Hatton could take Tszyu's shots at junior welterweight(who is a great boxer with knockout power for that weight class), then Hamed wouldnt' bring anything to the table that Hatton hasn't seen before. Rick Hatton late by late stoppage.

I've said this b4 and I'll say it again! Joan Guzman would beat Ricky Hatton didn't anyone see how fast he moved weighing in at 148?? Thats a small guy I can definitly count on if he'd face Ricky Hatton

Joan Guzman would give Ricky Hatton the business!!

Floyd stripped Ricky of his manhood and his confidence. There's nothing left for Ricky. A hyper-confident fighter with speed and pop like Gooz would just pick through the debris that is Hatton's career.

ya prince naseem is a fat pig now but he keeps on making these statements about his comeback at lightweight so maybe he comes back soon and then hopefully fights mayweather. mayweather really wanted to fight him couple of years ago.
