    Cotto called Ricky Hatton overrated because that was the cold hard truth,Hatton made a career off of one win over a faded,inactive champion and that was it.

    He was never the best at 140 either.He never had the resume and accomplishments that Cotto had at 140 and he turned down a fight with Mayweather at 140 also.

    Timothy bradley has been the best at 140 ever since he beat Juinor Witter(the man Hatton has avoided for eight years)and you can bet that Hatton want's absolutely nothing to do with him and Devon Alexander as he knows he would lose and get embarrased in the process.
    Cottos resume at 140 is NOT better than Hattons. Hatton was the lineal champion at 140, what did Cotto achieve at 140 that tops that?

        Hatton is and was overrated lol. Cotto losing to Pacquiao doesn't change my opinion of that at all.

        Hatton loses to the top 5 WWs and top 3 Jr WWs as it stands today. Cotto can still bounce back and have a good 2nd run to finish his career.

        Maybe we'll find out if and when Hatton vs Cotto is signed (Sheesh...that sounds like a Death Sentence if I ever heard of one lol)

              Cotto gave Pac a battle for a while.

              Hatton gave Pac a light sweat.

                He'd have a tough time at 154lbs, but he's still a problem at 147. Him losing to Pacquiao is not going to end his career.

                  A problem for who? The top welters all beat him. Hes in a similar position to Hatton right now.

                      Hatton got ktfo in 2 rounds, don't put Hatton in the same sentence as Cotto.
