Will Hatton be given credit if he defeats Pacquiao?

[STEELHEAD]

This may seem like a ****** question at first glance, but some American sports writers and commentators (Max Kellerman, Eric Raskin, Michael Rosenthal) have always been very negative about Ricky Hatton, and they've always discredited his wins.

For example, last week there was an article on The Ring website by Michael Rosenthal, bashing Hatton and saying he's not really that good.

Will they be fair to Hatton, or will they go on about him being bigger? He's actually just a little guy, close to the same size as Pacquiao. It seems so ****** to me when they call him "big"...

i think you and your alts got too much time on your hands tunney!
yes its silly at even a second and third glance to think hat won't be given credit with a win over pacquiao.

I don't have any alts. You're crazy...

Wait and see, if Hatton wins, those idiot writers at The Ring like Rosenthal and Raskin will not give him any credit. Neither will Max Kellerman during the broadcast...

Kellerman said right after Hatton KOed Castillo "Castillo is a shot fighter", and in another broadcast he lied and said "most observers had Collazo beating Hatton" when in fact most observers, including the judges, thought Hatton won a close decision. Max also said "Eubank knocked Calzaghe down in the first round of their fight" when in fact Calzaghe floored Eubank. Kellerman is very biased against European fighters, especially if they're from the UK.

If Hatton does come away with the victory in convincing fashion, I will give him alot of credit and say what a great win for him, no dout.

Tunney, you and everyone here knows, that you have ALTS... please do not deny it, it makes you look ridiculous.

You can check with BigPoppaPump, who can see the IP addresses. I don't have any alts.

And you are bothered by what I post because you can't face up to your own biases.

If you don't want to read my posts, why not put me on ignore?

[MANGLER]

Why wouldn't he get cred?

[THE REED]

You;re posting doesn't bother me Tunney, I actually think you're a good poster as of late...

its the constant repeat of the same things "You are obviously racist against eastern european fighters"

I must see it 6 times a week from you..


And I dont have any Racial biases... WHAT. SO. EVER.

I like particular styles, END OF.

personally i expect this fight to be a beatdown so no i wont be giving hatton too much credit. i think hes fighting a smaller man who has no buisness in fighting one/two weight divisions above his natural weight class.

when manny tastes a genuine 140lb's power hes gonna **** himself. i guess it does depend on how manny looks come fight night but i dont think he can stand up to hattons power.

oh a win for hatton doesn't make him p4p 1 i wish hed stop saying that, and i wish his nuthuggers would stop saying 'if you beat the man then you are the man'. even if many loses he doesn't drop out of the no. 2 slot on the rankings, for me anyways.

if pacman wins on the other hand then i would consider him an ATG. he would have triumphed over a man that i give him little chance over and i would put his win at 140 on par with mayweather over DLH at 154. we wont be iscussing is manny a p4p fighter but where does manny come on the all time p4p list.

but like i said i expect it to be a beatdown

It probably depends how how much he clinches.
