Hatton was a great junior welterweight, but an average Welterweight

[jonesy]

Just like Roach said "Hatton is just not very good"... He was luck to be the champ at 140 but he only fought Pauli M at 140, the rest of his competition were mediocre at best, He never fought Cotto at 140 (He would murder Hatton), He duck Mayweather till Floyd went to 147, Vivian Harris ask for too much money to fight Hatton so cant fault Hatton there, He ducked Witter who was his main domestic and awkward rival..

But he fought maussa, Urango (A 17-0 novice), A shot and debt-ridden Castillo, Laszcano and a bunch of low level fighters at 140, I dont see Hatton beating the Bradley,Alexander,Khan, Ortiz or Maidana of these world.

You officially know nothing about boxing.

Hatton was really good in Jr. Welterweight. he lost both times against number 1 pound for pound. nothing to be ashamed of.

I think thats a cop out to be honest.

Hatton just was not good enough to beat Pacquiao and Mayweather, and i believe, physically, was on the down side of his career after the Tszyu loss.

Yeah go read Hatton's interview about "Am not ready to fight him yet, Trust me i would fight him but only when am ready to, I dont want to go over there and jump into fighting him, I need to take my time to aclimatise to the way of thing over there before i take on the best over there"

Since you have only been around boxing in a year or so you would know nothing of this.

hatton turned down 2 fight offers from mayweather at 140

Thank you!!! Hatton turn the fight down 3 different times altogether, Twice under Frank warren and once when he came to America, Ray Hatton (His Dad) even spoke about how they turn the fight down because they werent ready, Hatton himself guarantee that he would fight the best that they have in america but only when he is ready to and how he wants to get use to the way of things before making any big leap.

But what he is saying is correct Hatton always carefully picked his opponents and never fought the top guys in there prime, until near the end of his carreer and he was then put away very easily, so maybe it`s you who knows nothing about Boxing.

thats why floyd fought hatton at 147........nevr was a hatton fan but he is a warrior no doubt!

You're only a fan of Pacquiao anyway. Bashing Floyd all day is your main thing.

I like Hatton he is all balls.I'll say he was a great Jr WW because he will get into the HOF.He was undefeated in 45 fight(I believe)His only losses where too the two best in boxing today(Even tho I felt he lost to Lazcano)I think he will be remembered as greater then he actually was,but I like him he was a great...But as far as matching him up with ATG 140lbs I don't think he beat any of umm.I think the same Kostya Tszyu who fought Chavez or even Judah kicks the **** out of Hatton.

Hatton didn't lose to Mayweather at JWW, he only lost to the greatest boxer any of us is ever likely to witness at 140.

Mayweather dragged him up a weight to fight him, just like he did to JMM but still needed to be in his backyard with a crooked ref.
