Did Hatton Deserve To Earn As Much As He Did?

I agree w/ most of the posts above. Hatton shouldnt think twice about fighting again. There is nothing more for him to prove unless he fights JMM. imo be a 50/50 fight. The 2 styles would be a perfect match.

I don't like his two wins the ones I've seen! It was like watching a wrestling match. Of course Hatton is a nice man out of the ring, but he was boring for me to watch. I mean its so annoying to watch someone clinch and punch and dirty fight like that. If I enjoyed **** like that Calzaghe/Hopkins would be my favorite fight ever!

Hatton changed his style to beat Tszyu and his bad habit formed for that fight continued except for when he fought Malignaggi. Watch his fights before Tszyu and you'll see that Ricky was an exciting pressure fighter that was as good as anybody at cutting the ring off and he never clinched. Hatton couldn't get that large of a fan base by being boring in the ring, nobody can, if you could then Witter would be just as big of a star as Hatton is...

Cant believe people are saying no....he lost to the 2 best p4p fighters in the world....how the fk can you say no?

He deserved every penny he got, at least he aint a ***** like some fighters... he took the step UP to mayweather...give him credit, its not like he was distroyed in that fight....like yeah may was pot shotting, the ref wasnt exactly fkin good tho was he

N the pac thing i duno wtf happened...but he has deserved everything hes made from the sport

Yeah obviously, people loved him for a reason

No need to bash Hatton now that he's a shot fighter. Ricky deserved his earnings as much as any fighter.

And he was very talented, I suggest anyone who doesn't believe it: download and watch his fights from 2003 to 2005.

i suggest you down load his resume from 2003 to 2005 and take a look at what quality fighters are on there..

he helps the sport of boxing with his fans so yea he deserves it.

Hatton was dominant and then faded that fight because he was sick during camp and didn't have proper conditioning. Many people here were predicting Urango to KO Hatton so Ricky deserves some credit for winning convincingly while having an off night. And NOBODY thought Hatton could beat Tszyu so he deserves respect for winning ANY way he could!

Lmao who actually predict a Urango win, His Mother??? One journalist describe Urango has an amatuer who couldnt even shadow box when he saw him preparing for the Hatton fight, Urango was only a novice with 17 fights and one of then which i think he lost against Rabah.

Yes Hatton deserve his payday because he had a market and thats what count in boxing, I still think his best performance was his fight with paulie M.
