      I realize some of those 12 losses were controversial, but if you actually watch the fights, he never really dominated in any of them, except in the late rounds against Dawson. Some he clearly lost, for example the fight with Ottke and one of the three fights with Woods. He should have won the draw with Woods, but most of those losses are legit.

      I agree, he is overrated.
      Nobody will ever take anything you say seriously if you're posting the FUCKING IBO RANKINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

          I like Ricky because of who is he, ive met him and spoke with him and he's down to earth. I dont go above and beyond with Hatton he is what he is. He's a fighter lacking in a lot of departments who got near the top of the sport on guts and sheer will to win.

            If you look carefully, you'll see they are the most accurate, better than BoxRec's. They are determined by a computer.

            The IBO Champions, by the way, have little to do with their ratings.

            What's interesting is, they show how fighters have done against "Top 50" opponents, so we have an idea of the kind of opposition they've faced.

              How? In what way does he get more hype than 99% of other fighters? You missed my point because there was none, I was asking a question.

                  I don't know....he didn't look very good on FNF against Daniel Judah. I know alot of people think he beat Dawson, but I seriously doubt he would win a rematch if it ever happened which it most likely will not.

                    He knocked him down and outboxed Judah through that whole fight. If you watch the fight with Dawson it's hard to argue that Johnson didn't win or at least get a draw. He is a solid veteran with skills and experience, I think Calzaghe and Hopkins would beat him, but he would give them a hell of a fight.

                      in the boxing community maybe slightly cause he gets much love from us ... but personally i think most of it is well deserved ...
