    Hatton......by a mile, Hattons biggest wins were against Kosta and Castillo (the latter he dominated) amongst other impressive names he defeated. What was Hamed's biggest win?

    Hattons one Loss was against Mayweather who was at his prime and will probably go down as one of the greatest, Hamed's was against Barrera, who some believed to already be washed up, this win actually put him back in the frame. The way Hamed also reacted to this defeat left more question marks as to whether Hamed was a great or whether he was great potential.

    Most of you are basing your answer on the talent each had I am basing mine on the resume and Hattons is much, much more impressive. I think Hattons "comeback" opponent was of a better calibre then most of Hameds prime opponents. I think alot of people are writing off Hatton after his ONE defeat against the best boxer in the world, but the guy is the number one draw in boxing at the moment and is saving the sport.

      I agree with this. If Hatton lunged in with a punch he would get caught and KO'd. Hamed had faults of his own but was in a different league in terms of natural talent.
