HATTON's HOF STATUS

He's borderline. I'm not sure. If he was inducted I don't think he'd be a WTF?! type inductee but by the same token he's no certainty.

 

yes he is def HOF....

no where near an ATG obviously but I think he'll definatley be a HOF fighter

 

The HOF has become a joke so it wouldnt surprise me if he gets inducted.

 

:deal

 

Yeah,borderline.
I'm sure when Duran got the same treatment from Heanrs he wa squestioned too.

 

I actually agree with you guys. He's sort of borderline.

List his great wins. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.


The Floyd thing exposed a lot of his weaknesses but I always argued that it was at the wrong weight.

He's not quite as bullish at 140 as I always made him out to be.

 

c´mon mate comparing Hatton with Duran is like comparing Valuev with Ali.

Duran´s career at lightweight alone made him a sure inductee the rest was just a bonus.

 

Quite frankly, when you have Terry Norris and Dwight Muhammad Qawi inducted, I think you already know the answer.

 

Borderline I'd say too. Can't take away beating a slightly over the hill P4P#3 Tszyu, P4P-er Castillo, other reigning champs like Collazo (WW), Malignaggi (IBF), Urango (IBF), Maussa (WBA), losing only to P4P Kings.

Dominating 140 champ from Tszyu to Pacquiao, 2-division champion, the most popular fighter in the world, extra cool personality, a P4P-er for years, I mean c'mon, he'll be remembered as a warrior who won some vs. the very best and lost some vs. the absolute elite.

He should get in.

 

Damn I don't know. Hatton just got steamrolled

 

It is questionable.

I was gonna make a thread of this actually but didn't wanna add more **** to what's already a **** night for Hatton fans.

 

similar to hamed...he may not make it in his first year of eligibility but he would be there...
HOF also considers mainstream appeal and if pac-hatton sold more than 1,000,000 ppv buys, then he is locked...

 

True,but Hatton hada agood JWW career,is a big draw,etc.
I think he should get in eventually.
