Is Hatton elite or a B class fighter

[Roger Mellie]

he is only elite in box office in the U.K he aint even ppv material in the U.s

oh dear.

Yes enough debating i would say. Hatton is an elite fighter. Against PBF people werent sure who would win. ANd just because he lost to PBF, doesnt mean he isnt elite. Does that mean only PBF can be an elite fighter? PBF might be favoured to beat Pac, but Pac would still be elite as well wouldnt he?
Hatton is unbeatable at 140lb so far so he is an elite boxer. Not unbeatable....but still elite.
I cant say more than that.

f##k it lets all say he is elite so when pac beats him he will have another elite fighter on his resume

[fcastro1]

and what will you say if Ricky wins? What will the excuse be then for him not being elite?

Oh, hang on, you'll probably reply with "but Ricky wont win"

Somebody may have said Roberto Duran was one-dimentional and Mike Tyson was the same way. Does anyone feel like they are NOT Elite? I didn't think so.

Hatton is very good at what he does but I don't think he is in Duran's or Tyson's class as far as pressure fighters go. He gets hit far too much for my liking.

Duran was definitely not one-dimensional either, in my opinion.

if your saying hatton wont win then you are a 100%

That is my criteria for elite level fighters.

Come to think of it i dont know why i did put Calzaghe in after all

I'm no longer a Calzaghe fan but in fairness, a win over B-hop even now is no easy feat. That's not to mention that he did beat the 2 best rated challengers in Lacy and Kessler, even though he did step up uber-late.

Joe is most certainly an elite fighter, no matter how sick he makes me these days.
