Ricky Hatton is a Fraud

Hatton's big win is a shot inactive 35 year old Tzsyu. I means Luis Collazo beat him in reality as well. Before this fight (and it was the same before the Mayweather fight) he suddenly becomes the most hyped fighter on the planet who can win.

My point exactly. Hatton has been hyped to be the 'real deal' stepped up against 2 Elite fighters in their prime and was KO'd in brutal fashion. Hatton has never been the elite fighter that some make him out to be, he's been found out on two occasions and even Collazo had him rocked.

I know this is off-topic. But Lennox Lewis was born in britain, considers himself brittish, represented britain and started his pro boxing career in britain.... canadian, yeah right

Just look at guys like Gatti and Corrales, after a while all that punishment catches up to you. Hatton WAS elite, but its doubtful that he can continue to be.

I NEVER felt like Hatton was elite.......I felt like he was promoted better than ANY other fighter in the UK or Europe........he's a bad fighter he was sold to the british public as a good or top fighter.......thats WRONG!!......he doesn't have the resume to support a elite status ......Tszyu was coming off a long layoff and makin' 140 was difficult......Hatton's promoters KNEW the timing of the Tszyu fight was PERFECT!!!!.......they used Kosta to promote this dude ever since and I dont wanna sound like a dick......but I TOLD dudes that Floyd carried Hatton in that fight but Manny wouldn't.......he would get him outta there as soon as it presented itself.......I thought Hatton was better than gettin' stopped by Manny in 2 but I knew he wasn't elite and NEVER was!
