    Yeah i think he is an overrated fighter. He is NO atg in my book. I think Whitaker/Mosley/Duran/Arguello would beat him comfortably.

          Joe should have left Warren a long time ago, maybe he would have had the bigger fights sooner than he did.

                  Yep, Hatton has fought in a more talented division too... Calzaghe's wins against Hopkins and Jones were good but in all fairness if it happened 8 years ago it could and probably would have been different.

                    Yeah. He was a great fighter dont get me wrong, and its a great win for Hatton, but i cant rank him really high amongst the great LW of all time though. However to reiterate he was a Very good fighter.

                      To be fair hatton went to the USA and risked his 0 against the best fighter of this era hands down.

                      Wonder what would have happened if he held on to the WBU for 10 years, staying in his backyard for most of it, and trying to get the best fighters of his era to come and fight him in some car park in manchester, then complain they are ducking him when they turn him down.
