    As For Hatton, He's Clearly A Bit Overrated, Don't You Think? I Know Your Points Are Fine, He's A Domestic Good Fighter. On The International Scale, Just A Tad Overrated.

        I severely doubt that Pavlik would move up to LHW anyway.

        You say Pavlik is a threat now, but if Calzaghe fought him you would say exactly what i just said about him

        Calzaghe has a good chin and body, he fares well against powerful fighters, and against Pavlik who fully relies on his power and is not as slik or skilful as Calzaghe, the fight would only go one way

        If Pavlik really wants a Calzaghe fight he should move up to SMW now and fight Kessler... if he beats him then maybe Calzaghe would have one last fight at Cardiff in front of his home fans.... 60,000 of them
        But Pavlik wont, cause he knows he wont beat Kessler, and is instead going to fight some leser known middleweights....

          Oh I dunno how about JUNIOR WITTER? Oh thats right Witter blew it with the Bradley fight so that makes Lazcano the best out there.

          Junior welterweight division is absolute garbage right now. Although I do kinda like Bradley and Torres even though neither of them are that great. At least yet, just like Hatton. Too bad about that headbutt against Holt.

            Bradley's pretty ****ing good. I know some of you only saw him for the first time against Witter but just watch. If I'm Ricky Hatton, I stay far away from him.

              Naw Ive seen Bradley a few times and actually quite like him. I do enjoy watching him fight and hopefully he'll keep going and Ill defenitly be a fan if he does! Kinda looks like Mosley actually, haha. I was just saying its a little early to tell how good he actually is. The Witter victory was impressive but it seems like Witter wasnt really prepared for him. Out of anyone in the JWW division Bradley looks like he has the brightest future, but as I said its still early. Not saying hed beat Hatton, but again that doesnt make Hatton a great as Bradley hasnt really been tested much.

                Lazcano was a tune-up fight after his first career defeat and was ranked in the top 10 by the Ring.

                Witter lost to a dude who hadnt even fought anyone in the top 20.

                Pretty much says it all.

                  Yeah it says JWW is a ****ty division right now. Like I already said.

                  By the way the Lazcano quote was in reference to Danman's quote regarding Hatton only fighting the best.

                  Truth be told he did fight the best. Once, and he got knocked out.

                  Im seriously not trying to hate on Hatton here, Im just trying to smother the burning hot man-love you guys have for him. Cotto and Maywether were there at JWW for him, then they move up 1 weight class and all of a sudden they are too big for him. Do people think it would have made a difference what weight Mayweather and Hatton fought at? Gotta be kidding.

                    "And Joe beat a brilliant fighter in Roy. Sure, he wasn't as great as he used to be but he was on an unbeaten streak and had just soundly defeated a fellow Hall of Famer in Trinidad."

                    Good Lord...
                    I'm not sure who these outright unreasonable Calzaghe fans are. Most Calzaghe fans on here are pretty realistic and informed. It is actually Calzaghe's critics who hype up his opponents, whereas actual Joe fans tend to see Kessler as his best win and know very well that both Hopkins and Roy are/ were too old to beat him. Maybe I'm wrong, but that tends to be my experience here.

                      What a ****head. Jones is washed up and lost to Johnson whereas Hopkins beat Tarver and Wright as well as schooling Joe quite recently. He would say that though, because he knows it is easier. Even then, I think he might lose! I hope he does. I will laugh my **** off if he gets beaten by the shadow of the man! He avoided the best in their prime and hid in welsh mountains with sheep. Joe Calslappy is a ****ing disgrace.
