    Naz was the better fighter and has more talent but Hatton probably achieved more.

    Naz easily. Hatton was limited by ability. Naz was limited by being a ****.

    Naz, they were both open to questions as regards to their dedication once they were set up for life, Naz had natural, phenomenal, talent though. Loved watching them both and I was more excited to see Hatton win, but Naz had the extra level of ability.

    Hatton use to block punches with his Face so it has to be Naz.

    Hatton was never going to last long with his face first style so wasting so many prime years on the WBU circuit was very bad for him. He ended up only having 5 or so 'real' world title fights. He does hold the best win of the 2 though.

    Naz won a world title early on and dominated his division for a long time. He seemed to be on the decline by the time he got a true p4p level opponent.

    Naz edges it for me.

    Hatton just, Naz was the more talented but the way he crumbled mentally after and during the Barrera fight says a lot about him.

    Ha I knew I would get a lot of questioning for saying that after the Fmj fight Hatton fought on to the best of his ability and didn't lose his self belief. Hatton was finished physically it was clear for everyone to see post fmj Hatton had lost alot of his punch resistance there was nothing he could do about that if he had lived a cleaner life outside of the ring this may not have happened.
    Naz however still had the speed, power and skills to fight at the top level post Barrera but for 1 reason or another chose not to in my opinion it was because he had lost all self confidence, perhaps i'm being abit harsh on Naz but all the way through boxing history the best fighters have normally been judged on how they came back from a loss.
