Seeing a lot of people saying spence win over brook is better than ggg's...

And what did pacquiao do to defend from hattons rough tactic? Always catch him on the inside so that he could be smothered instead of fighting inside and be broken up. Pac was right infront of hatton the whole time but pacquiao wasnt planning to be running away.

That Hatton was trying to box Pacquiao. That's now how Hatton fought. If you watch the 2nd round he was having some success until he got caught too. You Pac fans have never even watched an Hatton fight other than Pacquiao or maybe Mayweather and you think you can discuss what prime Hatton was capable of.

You probably picked hatton to beat pacquiao and surprised how easy Pac destroyed hatton. While mayweather lost some rounds from him

In what universe is a MW beating a WW better than a Ww beating a WW?

Brook had no chance to beat ggg. That was a cash grab in exchange for getting ktfo. Against Spence, brook was a much less of an underdog and was given a good chance to win by many.

Both wins were impressive but I think it's more impressive when a young guy wins in his 1st step up against major comp than it is a veteran destroying a huge underdog who came up in weight for a cash grab.

I am starting to get why the demographic hates GGG fans so much.

Brook moved up 2 divisions to fight GGG. Widely regarded as a joke fight. GGG was expected to destroy him. We have weight classes for a reason

Bingo!!! This should end the thread right here... ggg should get zero credit for stopping a ww, zero...

This is borderline the ******est thread I've seen all week and there have been a lot of them. Where do I begin:
1. Hatton had fought AND WON A WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP at 147.
Brook hadn't even fought at 154
2. Hatton was on the P4P list when Floyd fought him, beat him and took his 0. Brook was just a top fighter IN HIS DIVISION
3. Floyd and Hatton were the same size. Brook and Spence are the same size. GGG was bigger than ALL 4 OF THEM.
4. Why do I keep having to argue against a fighter I like? It's getting really annoying with the idiocy on this board.

Hatton wasn't fighting 2 divisions higher, Hatton looked bad against a C level fighter after the Mayweather fight. Mayweather ruined Hatton, he admitted himself he spiralled into depression and contemplated suicide. Pacquiao beat a shell of Hatton.

Hatton was always a **** bum. Mayweather didn't ruin anything. Hatton should have taken the L vs Colalzzo before the Mayweather fight

[SkillspayBills]

Brook is a WW. Hatton also had fought and won a world title at WW before fighting Mayweather. This is a lame attempt to try and give Golovkin credit for beating a WW. When Mayweather beat Marquez he didn't get credit, even when Marquez was P4P #2 and went on to KO the P4P #1 at the same weight.

Thank you!! That would have been a MUCH better comparison if JMM had gotten KOd after moving back down. Instead he got the greatest win of his career at THAT SAME WEIGHT CLASS

[SkillspayBills]

Spence had to show more of his ability and skills to beat Brook, but GGGs is better, or not better as he bloated him up a division. But how GGG beat Brook was better.
Pacs win over hatton was better of course and more convincing.

I disagree. Though Pac got a one punch KO Floyd beating Hatton with a style HATTON WAS UNDEFEATED WITH for his entire career is one of the most masterful performances in the history of the sport.

That was after the Pac fight.
