    Is there a boxer, who achieved so little but is so popular as Ricky Hatton?

    his achievements seem to diminish with every passing day, yet some see the man as a legend.

    has anyone done less to earn their status?

            Hamed maybe... even though he achieved awhole lot more than Hatton

            his level of popularity still surpasses the greatness of his achievements

              David Haye a couple of months ago.

              Now he is probably not as popular.

                hatton beat kosta and had a great fanbase who truly supported him so what he lost to the top 2 p4p fighters in the world he still had a solid career and made the most he could out of his talent. also after watching how pac beat oscar clottey and cotto his loss isnt as bad as once thought and we all know how skilled mayweather is.
