fatton exposed again ?

[PRboxingfan]

I don't see how that exposes Hatton. Hatton beat those fighters and just because they turned out to have an injury or to lose to a crappy fighter later on, it doesn't mean they weren't good fights for him when they happened.

I agree that KT was good enough to still beat most 140 pounders even with his injury. Hatton just bullrushed him and didnt' allow him to box his way.

However, I did think he lost to Collazo 116-112.

Hatton is a decent, but rule breaking and overrated fighter. I dont pay much attention to him.

He may be a bit overrated, but ''decent'' fighters don't win world titles in two different weight classes. Maybe he can gain more respect in future fights, none more so, than against Mayweather.

you can make this arguement for alot of fighters.. its a ****** thread.. ppl accused de la hoya for doing the same.. fighting older out of prime fighters.. but de la hoya is a great fighter..

hatton.. i like the guy.. i love the excitement and energy he brings to the ring.. hes a beast in there.. hes not the best skill wise but he is can fight top level

As for Collazo v Hatton,Hatton got whooped,got hurt badly in d 12th,n did NUTIN 2 take the title off d champ.

once those 2 fighters are in that ring, they are considered equal and thats how the fights are scored. done gimme that "hes the champ" ****.

and i hate how people call hatton, fatton. its so annoying. and fraud mayweather and stuff. u can clearly tell its some loser freak that uses those words.

and calling hatton "fatton" is rediculous. in that ring hatton is easily one of the best conditioned fighters right now. he is a stamina freak.

The Ramsey brothers (Mark and Paul) had fought at the senior world amateur championships, Mark Winters was a quality boxer, Pedro Teran was no mug, Lauri had amateur pedigree, Pep gave Mayweather a good workout, Pendleton saw it as his last chance saloon, Krivolapov was ranked #2 by the WBC and #3 by the WBO, Magee was ranked #2 by the WBA, Phillips was dangerous, Tackie was dangerous (the next two after Tackie were replacements for Pinto, Mitchell and Harris), Stewart was an eliminator and Oliveira a warm-up.

At just 25 years old Hatton was ranked #1 by the WBO and IBF, #2 by the WBA and #3 by the WBC - in the best division in boxing.

Tackie who lost his last two fights and 3 of his last 6? Are you referring to the 40year old Vince Philips? Pendelton are you serious about this? Again there are no good fighters in there. There are some C and C- journeymen in that group and some has beens and some never have's. The best fighter that Hatton faced was Collazo who is himself a B-ish level fighter not elite. At the B-level Hatton struggled severely and almosted got KD, Although I did have Hatton winning on my card by a point.

you see ****** boy that started this thread here says hattons a bum but somehow he has managed to win over 40 fight most by way of knockout surrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre big man wats you record? 0-36 losses 36 by way of *****-slap

And Chavez Jr is undefeated with 27 wins, is he great? I ask about who he faced and you guys give numbers and rankings. Once again the very first time Hatton faced a decent B-ish level fighter he got all he could handle. Once he saw that the C level Gatti lost he decided to move back down to the talent depleted 140lb division with his perverbial tail between his legs to fight C level opposition again.

P.S. I love Gatti but he is C level fighter with A+ heart.

Over-rated? Oh, please.

He's still the most under-rated fighter, still the best out there with the best skills.

[PRboxingfan]

He did beat KZ who was THE Jr. welter champion. He was considered the best at that weight and Hatton did beat him, so that's an accomplishment right there. So what if he also beat Phillips, Tackie, and Stewart? Yes, they're c level, but Kostya is still an A fighter.

Collazo? Give me a break. He had free hits for 12 rounds and still lost! If the guy was any good, he'd of won every round against a Hatton who could barely move.

Best Hatton has fought are Tszyu, Phillips, Magee and Tackie. But add Castillo and Corrales or Witter/Corley winner to that list, and possibly Mayweather.

Tszyu, Phillips, Mayweather, Castillo - stuff of first ballot HOF and modern great.

Over-rated? Oh, please.

He's still the most under-rated fighter, still the best out there with the best skills.

He is not the best out there and he doesn't have the best skills. He's still considered to be a welterweight and that title falls on Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

Now, if you're talking about the 140-pound division, I'd have to say that he is the best figther in that division (assuming Cotto move up and Castillo isn't considered in the rankings). If Cotto and Castillo are considered, it's a toss up between these three fighters, and it's based on opinion, but he's def. top 3. But, I think the skills at 140 lie with Witter. He's a better boxer than anyone else at 140 right now. Cotto is a close second at skills.

Ricky is a pressure fighter. It doesn't take much skill to be all up in someone's grill.
