    Hatton is one of the most, if not the most, marketable fighters today. Yet I don't believe he is among the top 10 best fighters....hence, he's overhyped. He's still a very good fighter.

    Hatton just isn't as good as many make him out to be. What has he done since raping Kostya??? Who has he really beaten? Malignaggi :patsch Let him fight and see what he can do against Pac....I'll gladly admit I'm wrong if he can beat Pac.

    -urango,devastating fighter,litle one dimensional but a big force in the future

    -collazo,very underrated boxer,close fight but first step up in weight hatton was dominating half the fight against a slick fighter did enough to win

    -malinaggi,again a very underrated win against a slick fighter establishing hatton as the man again at LW

    -lazcano,the "comeback" fight so many falter at,a tough fighter,hatton got the job done.

    maussa-hatton destroyed this guy who was coming of a KO of vivian harris and who was quoted as being "one of the toughest guys i ever fought" by cotto!

    -castillo,past his best yes but a solid win in devastating fashion for hatton.

    overhyped nahhhhhhhhhhhhh dont think so.

    Hatton? Are you having a laugh? He has more than proven his credentials by beating titlists such as Urango, Mallinaggi, Maussa and Collazo aswell as getting a win over legends like Castillo and Tyszu. Pathetic to say that about Hatton!!!

    Id say Jermain Taylor and Chad Dawson.

    Why are people saying Valero is overrated? The guy is 25-0 with 25 KO's and he's now a two weight titleist. Despite this, he's a relative unknown. How many of you guys have even seen a Valero fight(live on t.v, not on the internet)? Don't you have to get a lot of hype to be overhyped?
