    Yea thats my opinion... but am i right or wrong??

    Hatton has fought 40 fights.. don't you think its time he fights the big guys? **** a tune up match he fough tszyu and has 40 fights i think thats good enough.... hatton should fight cotto... why? cause cotto fights in march and then he could make a fight in June 10 happen... there promoters should talk to eachother.. this would be one helluva fight am i wrong?

        eubank was washed up too lost when he fought cal and yes they were just as impressive to me, ive heard of them and am aware of what theyve done because i follow the sport very closely and have done for years, obviously you have one train of thought and i have another.
        Eubank is cals best win for me too by the way, mitchell impressed me too

          imo your wrong with the bum statement and i too would prefer to see him fight cotto or floyd but its not happening.
          i agree cotto hatton would be a great fight, one which i think hatton will win too, i believe cotto to be the weakest out of the top 3, baldy (if it happens) is so hatton can get the wbc belt and be a two division champ, like it or not he beat zab, i agree hes not brilliant but hes the champ and its tough **** on our part, floy gets his paper title against zab, hat gets the proper title then hopefully well see them decide who is the real no 1 at 147.
          Big fights after big fights happen very rarely if it was perfect then all 3 would of faced each other already there would have been no controversy in any of the bouts and we'd know who is the main man but we dont so its a matter of waiting and being happy with the fights we get

            This will be Hatton's 2nd linear champion in his last 3 fights. I really don't see how you criticize a guy for fighting the best. The champ is the man and he is the best, whether you like him or not, or feel he got lucky or not, etc. A fighter who wins THE championship has to be respected. I'm sure if Hatton fought Tzsyu, Harris, and Judah that everyone would have no problem right? Stop worrying about who YOU would like to be the best, or who you think might be the best, and go with the guy who actually wins the fights. It's like criticizing Pittsburgh for beating Seattle in the SB, because YOU feel that Carolina is the better team. Who cares? They LOST. They will have to wait until next time to prove they are better, for now let's go with the WINNER.

            Hatton is fighting WINNERS, and Floyd is fighting LOSERS. I mean, let's everyone take a step back and look at that for just a second, please.

              eubank was not that washed up dude he was still 29. he wasnt in his 40s and he hadnt been knocked out by teddy reid. hatton was eating tszyus and mitchells leftovers with tackie come on. calzaghe beat everyone he beat when they were still fresh and young. not shot and not someones left overs.

                just because he was 29 doesnt mean he wasnt shot lost, you could say the same applies to cal with ottkes left overs with brewer and mitch, altho i wouldnt, but u see what i mean

                  lol whatever dude you and i both know ottke was a feather fisted cyclist.

                  and ill give you brewer cause yeah he was shot so same level as tackie.

                  lets put it like this then. calzaghe is around 35 or so and is fighting jeff lacy next. hatton is around 28 and is trying to get fights with guys like maussa and baldy. and you cant say tune ups cause hes wanting those as title matches. plus 39 of hattons 40 matches have been tune ups.

                    you can put it however you want we arent going to agree are we.

                    you rate cal more than me simple as

                    i 100% agree about ottke but i was trying to make a point, your way of looking at cal and his opponants is different to mine, we can both dissect a fighters resume to suit our opinion
