Gatti vs. Hatton who wins?

He's actually fought several times all over England, 3 times in the US and once in Germany according to Boxing Rec. Still don't see how that makes him lucky.Originally posted by The1GodI haven't seen him 1. outside his hometown. 2. Or somebody close to their prime.
I don't see Tackie, Stewart, Phillips or Magee as any weaker than the best that Gatti has beat.Last edited by Cletus Funk; 11-12-2004, 01:07 PM.Comment

Regardless of what anyone thinks of these guys, this would be a great fight. I would love to see this happen.....it won't of course, Showtime vs HBO. I would have to go with Gatti, just because he has stepped up and done this before, he can handle the top guys. Maybe not beat them all, but give all of them a good run. Hatton has yet to prove that.Comment

I mean this in the nicest possible way, if you havent watched enough of Hatton then dont comment about him!!
With regards to being lucky - apart from the Magee KD, i havent seen Hatton lose a round in years.
Face it man, you're on his nuts cause you are British.....don't blame us cause we see it the way it is. Bring the mother****a to the states and put him in the ring with a top 5 140 pounder and when he wins he gets my respect......until then he's nothing to me but a pampered little Brit fighter that hasn't taken the leap to the upper level yet. The kid can **** obviously, I saw the clips you showed people....Tackie 2nd tier, Phillips 2nd tier, other two are 3rd tier fighters. The big fights happen here and the big fighters are here. Put him at MSG against Gatti with everyone booing his ass and let him get stung with a right harder than he's ever felt and let him land a punch that has crumbled all his other competition (and they stay up) and let's see how he reacts. My money is on - he doesn't react well.Last edited by urdaddyinAZ; 11-12-2004, 01:16 PM.Comment

I agree, Hatton haters really annoy me!! Mainly because most Hatton haters havent even seen Hatton fight and secondly because they never research facts before opening there big gobs.Originally posted by Frank the TankHe's actually fought several times all over England, 3 times in the US and once in Germany according to Boxing Rec.

Its cool that people voice there opinions but its not cool when people show hate for no good reason.Comment

I'm from Phoenix man, but live in England now so I've seen plenty of him. I'm on his nuts coz he's ****ing good.

I dont care if Hatton fights in the UK, US or Anywere else!! But I cant think of a fighter other than Tszyu thats worth the Travel.
I'd love to see Hatton go to the US and fight but against who?Gatti refused to fight, Harris refused to fight, Sharmba refused to fight! the list goes on!! The only people i think that would get in a ring with Hatton are Tszyu and Cotto. Hopefuly we can see Tszyu fight Hatton next and Cotto in the future.
Can you name any decent wins on the record of any of the top 5 fighters you mention? except Tszyu because i know he's a class act.Comment

Cotto has beaten N'Dou and Pinto...two very tough, game 140 fighters.Originally posted by elveielTake your US blinkers for a minute so i can have a decent conversation with you.

I agree they are tough but neither of them are top 10 and you couldnt call them world class.Originally posted by oldgringoCotto has beaten N'Dou and Pinto...two very tough, game 140 fighters.
For a divison with so much talent there isnt many good names on peoples records. i hope this will change soon, I hate watching the heavys but at least the top guys fight each other!!Comment
