Now where will the media and fans put Hatton after beating a guy who everyone had top 5, most had top 3, and some had #1? I think they wont give Hatton his respect.

      Roy Jones looked completely washed up but no one was willing to admit it and they said that Tarver beat the best. Now Tszyu didnt looked washed up but watch how they try to make every excuse for him and thats why they wont move Hatton high.

      Here is my list

      1)Hopkins
      2)Mayweather
      3)Wright
      4)Chico
      5)Hatton
      6)Castillo
      7)R. Marquez
      8)Zab
      9)Morales
      10)Toney
      11)Ouma
      12)MAB/Pac
      I'd keep Hatton wherever he was before last night but in the interest of objectivity ... slide Toney to the end just behind Hatton.

            Typical? Despite his win I just don't think he's all that. He's a tough kid and comes prepared but in terms of punching power, accuracy and all I just don't think he's better than several guys.

            I do give him credit for his poise and ring generalship but only because of the home cookin ... he won't be allowed all that rough house ****, foulling and the like anywhere else but in England. He shouldn't be allowed to do it there, either. It's a foul! Against the rules. He should have been docked a point for that flagrant blow to Tszyu's balls. He lead with his head all night and committed several other fouls, nearly as flagrant as hte ball shot.

            Poise and ring generalship, let's see if he has any outside of England.

                  Ranking Hatton ahead of Morales is the ******est **** I have ever seen on a boxing forum.

                    for god's sake, how can you rank him from one fight................let him score another big win or two and then he's in there.........was buster douglas put in there....or how about danny williams? or corey sander for blasting W Klit, or Brewster for doing the same...it doesn't go that way....

                      hmm

                      Hatton deserves number 5 in my opinion, but probably no higher. You at least have to consider that Tszyu might not have been the BEST version of himself. However, he still looked very good and coming off a blowout victory of Mitchell would many thought would beat Tszyu. Hatton has owned a lot of fringe contenders, and then beat Tszyu. This is good enough for top 5, but not top 3 (yet).

                      Also, why not have Hatton over Morales. Hatton weighed 147 on fight night whereas Morales weighes 141, 6 lbs difference. You don't think if Hatton was naturally 6 lbs smaller that he could beat Morales? I do.
