    Hamed Hatton Calzaghe are all about same...

    the difference is Hamed Hatton at least faced prime ATG...Joe didnt...

    those 2 would have stayed undefeated also if they didnt face mayweather,pacman barrera

    You are a joke mate......Lazcano was a semi retired light hitter who smacked Hatton all over the ring.

    Castillo was a blown up lightweight who was shot after many hard fights.

    Malignaggi .........Dont make me laugh a powder puff runner with 4 KNO`s on his record.

    Tsyzu.....Semi retired and years past his best.

    Collazo ......Smacked Hatton all over the ring and clearly won 8 rounds out of 12 and was robbed by a disgraceful decision.

    Maussa??? Didn`t Witter knock him out?

    Hatton only fought 2 world class fighters in their prime and he was made to look like a club fighter in both fights.

    Id go with Ricky he had more fights and tested himself more....he took on the 2 top dogs and some other name opponents where the Prince got his ass whipped by one legit guy and pretty much faded into obscurity after one more meaning;ess fight....Ricky was a fighter the prince while a fighter was more like WWF meets boxing

    What does that mean Naz only faced one legit guy? Naz beat many legit guys but lost to the only Elite level fighter he fought. Naz has a very decent record and he KOed a lot of good world class fighters and made them look average like the way Pac did to Diaz and Hatton.

    Hamed is the better boxer and has the better wins. The only thing Hatton has over him is his fanbase.

    I like Hatton a 1000 x more, but Hamed has the better resume.

    Avoiding Marquez and not fighting Morales definitely hurts Hamed...but he has a pretty good body of work before the Barrera loss. IMHO, Hamed may not have the better single win (hatton over Tszyu), but beat beat more quality fighters. And he cleaned out his division (minus the exceptions I noted). At one point, Hatton's 140 division was the deepest in boxing, and yet we only got a fight vs. Tszyu.

    Hamed got a lesson in application and effort from Barrera but he still has a better legacy than Ricky IMO.
