    Add Gayweather to that mix..

    Thank you very much.

      Hatton is a shot fighter now, but he was very good around the time he fought Tszyu.
      Did you seriously just post a list of the fucking IBO rankings?

        There's a category "vs top 50" that I wanted people to see. Hatton defeated several top ten and many "top 50" opponents.

        Those are objective, computer-created rankings made without sanctioning fee considerations. If you look carefully, you'll see although they're not flawless, they make a lot more sense than any other rankings including BoxRec.

        Faruq Saleem has ZERO wins over "top 50" opponents.

          Yes, Floyd padded his record with opponents like Jesus Chavez (1-13):

            Now we just need someone to knock off David Rodriguez http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php...7041&cat=boxer.

            Another terrible built bum that has never taken a legitimate shot in this sport

              LMAORTF. WhenI raed the title I asked "Who the hell could he have fought to get that record then?" thanks for the answer.
