    I didn't see how you can call someone
    an ATG or HOF without being both.

    If it wasn't for Fatton
    Hatton would get more respect.

    It's possible. Blame the voters.

    hall of famer

    a good fighter doesnt become a 2 weight world champ making a number of defences. a world class boxer does however

    only a great boxer becomes an all time great which hatton isnt

    Behind Sugar Ray Robinson but ahead of...Mickey Rourke...

    In all seriousness, hall of famer, but not an ATG

    I chose HoF'er and ATG, basically because I'm a Hatton fan and I'm biased as ****. Really though, probably just a Hall of Famer not quite an ATG.

    Definitely a HOF, dominated the LWW division for years. Sought the best, fought the best, and only lost to two of the most gifted fighters to have walked the planet.

    No friggen discipline though. Its sad how he just cant take care of himself.

    taken onto consideration the low standards of most of the people that vote who's should be inducted i would say hes a hall of famer,but from the options on the poll the one who fits him best is good fighter.
