    Who gets more credit for beating Hatton? Floyd for being the first or Pacquiao?

    Floyd: Fought an undefeated Hatton at a weight class Hatton looked like dog-**** in the past at 147. Hatton was coming off an impressive win over a shot Castillo.

    Pacquiao: Fought Hatton at Hatton's best weight class of 140. Didn't take 10 rounds to stop Hatton. Hatton was coming off an impressive win, dominating Paulie Malignaggi completely. And I personally think Paulie had more left in the gas-tank at this part of his career compared to Castillo of 07.



    When Hatton lost to Floyd, he went on to have a terrific dominating win over Paulie. When Hatton lost to Pacquiao, Hatton went into retirement. Seems, like Floyd wasn't good enough to put Hatton in the retirement home!

        Pac does
        Hatton was a former WW champ, so give Floyd some props
        Pac simply destroyed him quicker and easier
        dumbasses say Floyd "ruined" Hatton, well he didn't
        he outboxed him and stopped him late
        he didn't dish out the kind of thrashing that ruins a fighter

          That so called ruined Hatton went on to dominate the **** out of Paulie Malignaggi. *****s never know what they are talking about.

            its even, because they fought THE SAME FIGHTER.

            Pacquiao beat him more impressively and at his weight class, but Floyd did it first and when Hatton was with a better trainer.

            =even.

              Equal credit.
              Mayweather beat him first, but ref was ****in' up the fight, and it was above ricky's weight class. However, mayweather beat him good.

              Manny, ricky's natural lineal weight, looked like an improved fighter after the paulie fight. and a vicious ko. But, mayweather already cracked the chin and took the 0.

              Equal credit.
              Mayweather did it first, but manny did it better at a better weight for ricky.

                I knew Mayweather was going to win.. and watched him fight scared. I got the feeling he could have exploded and took Hatton out at will.. so why wait 10 rounds??

                Pac I gave less a chance and he did what Mayweather was unwilling to do.

                Plus I consider what weights they fought at.

                Pac By a landslide..

                  Dont even try the weight bull**** because Hatton weighed the same on fight night as he did with KT and all his other JW fights and he outweighed Floyd by a pound on fight night , you people need to understand weight because most of you dont .

                    Hatton wasn't a welterweight and Floyd knew that after seeing the Collazo fight. At welterweight Hatton gave Mayweather a suprisingly good fight and it was close through the first ten rounds even though Mayweather made him move up in weight.

                    Pacquiao fought Hatton at 140, Hatton's best weight and Manny literally destroyed him. Enough so to make Mayweather not want to fight him!

                    Pacquiao hands down!
