    Say what you like about Ricky Hatton, but..

    he fact is this;

    Marquez, Moseley, Ortiz..

    Hatton performed better against Floyd than all of them.

    He might not have been the most gifted or intelligent of boxers, but his heart was that of a lion.

      getting KO'd is performing better?

        a KO is not the sum total of a performance, as well you know. Think about it.

          i disagree a bit....ortiz was putting it on floyd when he was on the attack...floyd looked lost at times...it's just that ortiz is a ****en idiot...

          last night would've been a close fight without the drama....

            I think that had Ortiz not been a douche and headbutted Mayweather, he would have given him the most work out of the fighters you listed.

              He wrestled and made jr uncomfortable but don't remember him landing anything that significant while ortiz at least caught him with a few clean shots
              this isn't the guy you want to be bringing up anyway considering last nights events IMO he takes the cake for the dirtiest cheapest b1itch move ever when he fought Tszyu

                Torrecampo and Singsurat are better than the entire of Pacquiao's resume, too.

                  Hatton gets bashed too much, IMO.

                  He wasn't the most skilled fighter, but it wasn't like he ****** either. He had good footspeed to close the distance, he was good at rotating his body to get angles on body shots. At times, like against Ben Tackie & Juan Urango, he could switch it up and box and win with his speed, jab, and movement.

                  He insisted on fighting Kostya Tszyu and not letting Frank Maloney continue to feed him overmatched opponents.

                  Oh the shame of losing to lousy scrubs like Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao.

                    He did make Mayweather more uncomfortable than all those mentioned with his WWE style but he got KO in a comical fashion..
