    Hatton beat 7 or 8 Champions in a row in 2 weight divisions and 2 of them were top 10 P4P fighters that Ricky beat (Tszyu, Castillo) so Ricky is far from an "average" fighter. Ricky was a great fighter that lost to two of the best fighters of this generation and P4P#1 ranked when he fought them. There's no shame in that, I don't see anybody else beating Pac or Floyd...

        ricky hatton is a great fighter in sense that he was able to achieve a great deal with the limited talent that he had...

        beating kostya, vince philips, malignaggi & castillo en-route to a 5 year stronghold of the lineal 140 title with that limited talent? he made the most of what he had...

        it was really wrong for floyd sr to make him what he really isn't...

          Nah he was/is a great fighter and no-one can take that off of him, like it was said he lost 2 fights and when he fought them fights his opponent's was and are the best p4p boxer they was ranked #1, so really he has more than a fan base!
          You never know he might fight on and one day get that number one you never know, no one knows what will happen but he lost two fights and they was against the number 1 p4p fighter, so really you can't say he only has a fan base!

            You just hate Hatton because you're a biased bitter-Witter fan. Witter was the one who was never elite and also had no fans. Witter had his chance against a VERY beatable Judah and then got smoked by Bradley. That's not Ricky's fault!

                  Most boxers can use this excuse when they took a L. SMH.

Maybe Floyd Sr. has ****ed with his head in training, i just don't think he is himself any more!
