    Really when did this happen? thanks for pointing out the obvious Einstein. The point is if a Hatton under his normal coach and undefeated faced pacquaio, it would have beem a more competitive fight.

    Funny part was Ricky complaining about Floyd's elbows a couple of times during the post-fight interview. I guess he came to his senses and realized that he was whining and then said "Well, I guess it ain't a tickling contest, aint it?".

    He accepted it and so should you (original poster). Two of the three judges had Ricky winning only the first round with the 3rd judge having it 7-2 before the TKO. Ricky wasn't even in the fight.

    if you say so.....i just think Hatton was a good fighter(somewhat overrated because the ref allowed him to mug Tsyu all night) but would get KO'ed by Pac 10 out of 10 times. Also, Tim Bradley and Devon Alexander would take him to school as well.

    Could you also tell me the lotto numbers? Also the weather for next year on this very day?

    You seem to be very good at telling how the future would happen if certain events were to occur?

    Are you a psychic by any chance?

    or wait, let me guess, another person who chats out of his ass?

    Gatti at 3 is a great laugh.

    Hatton was not in the fight by the time it got to round 8 let alone round 10, whichever way you slice it he was getting an ass kicking that night!

    Mayweather or Pacquiao do not rank at #4 of ATG lists and they are both FAR greater than Hatton.

    The fact that you have Gatti at #3 when Mayweather beat that ass like an angry step dad says it all as far as I am concerned.

    Good try though, you should have done a poll that would have been hilarious to see! :hey

    Bold- but Ricky held too much himself, he is no position to complain about the Mayweather fight. He definitely gave more skilled opponents a grueling fight

    He was winning the 2nd round you fool. :patsch

    He just got hit by a lucky Pac shot. Pac wasn't even looking when he threw the punch.

    I agree, Hatton would be at around number 5 ATG, with Ali, Robinson, Gatti and Mayweather just ahead of him.

    I just want to put this out there so Americans and Canadians and every other country out there don't think the UK Boxing fans are ******s. I am from the UK and I think(know) Ricky Hatton was a decent fighter, but NEVER, EVER would/should he be mentioned with any ATG. EVER! He doesn't even deserve to be because he never took it seriously enough with all this bloating up between fights, that **** was always going to get to him. Look at the elite fighters out there, look how well they look between fights. Ricky Hatton was decent and entertaining, but thats it. Please British fight fans stop being so ****ing biased and embarrassing the other UK fight fans. Geez. How dare you even put him in there with Ali and Mayweather. And yes, Hatton was pulled away a bit too much by "Mr Firm/fair/biased - Cortez" but Mayweather would of won anyway.
