The difference is, Hatton clinched and cheated to victory.
The difference between Hatton and Calzaghe......

-
Joe Calzaghe won by punching like he's trying out for the swim team.
Let's not compare styles.
Ricky is what he is. A pressure fighter.
Everyone talks about Joe's great skills and yet he punches like a teenager boxing in his backyard.Comment

Hatton vs. Pac...that's what I want to see. May/June 2009 at Wembley Stadium.
Nothing against Paulie, but I think the above fight would be more exciting.Comment

How they got their first title?
Ricky Hatton - Ricky got his 1st major belt in 2005. He beat Kostya Tszyu for the Ring/Lineal and IBF 140 title. Kostya was the king at 140 , hadn't lost a fight in 8 years and was top 3 or 4 p4p in the world. Kostya also had just beaten Sharmba Mitchell , a fellow champion and top ranked 140 guy , by KO a few months earlier.
Joe Calzaghe - Won the VACANT WBO 168 title in 1997 by beating Chris Eubank. Eubank was a good fighter and good name but he had lost 2 of his last 6 bouts and hadn't been ranked at 168 for years after losing 2 times to Steve Collins in 1995. In fact the Calzaghe fight was his 1st fight at 168 since 1995.
calz on the other hand pissed away most of his career.Comment
