    Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Pacquiao, De La Hoya, Whitaker, Holyfield, Lewis, Klitsckho all couldn't attain a 43-0 record. Hatton was no all time great but he certainly as no slouch either.
    i will never forget this part.. the dude was literally making fun of pac's move saying he does the same move over and over and then come fight night, he gets caught with that same move!!

      It's still an accomplishment. Do you know how taxing that would be on the body to compete and win 43 straight fights in a row?
      Many elite fighters couldn't attain that record and they fought their fair share of bums too.

      I'm no Hatton fan but I respect what he was able to accomplish in boxing. You're just discredting Hatton so you can discredit Mayweather and give him no credit for defeating him.

        wtf??? i even said pac gets no credit. did you miss that part? when floyd fought him, he was a bum, when pac fought him, he was a bum.

        why i be saying this to discredit floyd's win? pac did a better job on hatton and im still shiieting on it because hatton wasnt all that great.

          Larry, Dunn, Iron Dan, Ms. Travesty, and all sav a Floyd's report to your battlestations

            To be completely honest, Joe Cortez did a really awful job that night, but Hatton never had a chance vs Floyd.

            His one foray into the welterweight division before his fight with Floyd was very close fight with Luis Collazo.

            And to be honest, his only meaningful win in his career was that travesty of a fight against Kostya Tszyu where they did everything but tie Tszyus hands behind his back.

              hatton is a bum got destroyed by pac and Floyd and the other 147 fight I rerember with him besides the Floyd fight was a bs decision against collazo. Hatton was way fn overrated
