Better Legacy: Ricky Hatton or Naseem Hamed?

For some bizzare reason you seem to think that two brutal KO's losses to Manny Pacquaio and Floyd Mayweather are relevant to a resume of Hatton's best wins. :rofl

You're a feeble-minded comedy genius!

 

Johnson,Kelly,Medina,Bungu,Mculloch,Vasquez,Soto,Ingle............

My god man you haven't a clue!:roll:

 

Probably Hamed,both have solid resumes but nothing great.

 

Hattons best win is better than Hameds. Overall its close, in terms of legacy Hamed will always be known as a popular quitter and Hatton a very popular trier.

 

How ironic.

 

Goin off the the pole question its Hatton without a doubt, Ive been to Vegas both times to watch the mayweather fight n the manny fight and when you see 30,000 brits and 25,000 brits both times it answers the question itself, Both British legends in my eyes tho along with Lewis...

 

I agree that Hatton's win over Tszyu is better than anything on Hamed's resume. However, Hamed's resume has a lot more depth to it. There are eight solid names, and three or four other notables. After Tszyu we have a shot Castillo, and a couple of lower tier fighters like Urango and Malignaggi. It's not even close in terms of resume, IMO.

 

Hatton is very popular, as was Hamed.

This whole question basicially depends how you define legacy. If its from a purely sporting perspective Hamed takes it, simply because he was a better fighter, with a better resume, and has slightly greater accomplishments.

If we are talking about legacy in the wider sense of influence, popularity and culture. Its basically very close - and neither answer is incorrect.

 

What flavour are the windows today?

 

You obviously can't read so no point bothering with you

I cannot get over you putting collazo (who should of won) paulie who barely scraped a win against Ndou, pac who smashed hatton in 2 and mayweather who put ricky into a ring post and count them as his resume.

Now im a massive ricky but no way is he better then naz :deal

 

something i anactualy agree on with you :good

 

Yeh i know wot you mean.

 

Not too far apart in achievements, but Hamed far more skilled.

 

Hatton

Naz got exposed for not being as elite as people made him out to be, then rotted away

Hatton did as well but he atleast showed the heart to fight on and even try to improve his boxing, but he just couldn't, too little too late

plus the Kostya win is still a very big win as is the Castillo one

 

hatton easily
