The truth about Ricky Hatton

[warp1432]

I probably am being too harsh on the Paler, but I really don't like him.

I think he owes everything he has to the weak division he's chosen to compete in.

You picked Hatton to beat Mayweather if I remember correctly. He's a good fighter.

The 140 division isn't terrible. Paulie gave Cotto a good fight. Urango is good. Tszyu was still a great fighter even past his prime. Hell at 147, most think he beat Luis Collazo. A lot more people thought Hatton beat Collazo then Berto did.

Do you forgot that the fight against Collazo was a gift? Even the British press though that he lost the fight.

Really Hatton has to be able to withstand punishment to deliver a beating. If he can not take the punishment that Pacman is dishing out, he has no hope of winning.

The straight left, right jab and right hook should all be there Pacquaio. If he can keep proper range it will be a very long night for Hatton.

Is none of it based in reality though? I try to walk the fine line between hatred and facts. And I think I balanced enough in that post to convey my point.

Do you think Hatton could be a top 5 fighter at 135lbs right now? Or an top name at 147lbs?

**** no!!!. hell get his arse, kicked by JMM(This at 135 at 140 I dont know), and Joan Gizamn, at 147, any of the top 5 kick his ass also!!!!!!!!

I'm not sure Bradley or Holt would be able to beat him. They're really not that great either. Bradley is probably the "greenest" (is that even a word?) World Champion I've seen in a long time. And Holt owes everything he is to the headbutt that knocked out Torres.

140 is such a weak division that guys like Holt and Bradley even have a shot at being World Champ. It's pathethic.

Yeah. 168 might slightly be a better division. Lucian Bute, Jermain Taylor, Kessler, Froch, Andre Ward, and Miranda.

In all fairness we could pick apart anyone's resume like Hatton's but he is somewhat overrated. Urango's ok, Malignaggi can't crack a egg punching, Kosta was past prime or washed up. Castillo was shot for sure.Only one way Hatton beats Pacquiao and that's in a war and even then idk.

[-EX-]

Only way I could see Hatton winning is a tough grueling brawl and Hatton can't keep it on the inside a lot. At distance Pacquaio will time and outbox the **** outta him IMO. Hatton will prolly come out boxing but will realize Manny is far better in that department. Hatton gets stopped right before or around the championship rounds is what I predict.

Bradley is probably the "greenest" (is that even a word?)

It is. Yes.

"The greenest eyes I ever saw" would be a way to use it, but you could use it like you already did, too.

Whilst I don't think you were miles from the mark it was overly harsh. The man is definately not a bum. Granted he has built his legacy beating very past prime/shot fighters in a division lacking any sort of depth, but he has still had an impressive career at 140. I'm not a huge fan as I don't particularly buy the "working class hero" act he tries to put on and I hate watching his style of fighting, but he has still had a damn good career.

Ricky Hatton Deserves more then whats being given. He's a skilled fight at 140 and i thought he'd do better at 147. His body attack with be either his Golden Egg, or the **** on his cake. He cant out box Manny P. So he'll have to hold and hit.
