Better Legacy: Ricky Hatton or Naseem Hamed?

:thumbsup I agree I think Hamed has the slight edge as far as resumes go,and when he did fight a Pfp guy he didnt get Ktfod like Hatton did,and in a HTH Pfp matchup I have no doubt that Naz would knock him out around the 7th after having a tough time early. So clearly Naz is the better fighter,and I always rooted against him.I was very happy when Barrera beat him up, a fighter I loved to hate but i liked watching him and i give him his props as a skilled(although unorthodox)fighter with big time power.

 

I see Hamed clearly a better fighter. I could see him outclass Ricky and stop him in 8 rounds. I do not think it is close.

 

Im surprised that Hatton has 44% of the vote so far:shock: I guess lot of people still dislike Naz. It took me about 3to 4 seconds to come to the conclusion (resumes included) that Naz is clearly the better fighter,and I like Hatton and i disliked Naz.

 

Hamed by a mile, this shouldn't even be up for debate.

It's been said already, but it could stand to be said again: Fighters who absolutely crushed Hatton really shouldn't be brought up as if they gave him some sort of standing over Hamed.

 

Hatton is the more recent fighter, there are still a ton of limeys posting who love him.

 

what are you on bro,hatton won nearly every round against urango and PM,he had some trouble due to cuts with maussa ,but khtfo and collazo was a tough fight but one hatton won,by 1/2 points

 

So what? That's still a pretty mediocre lineup, and even you admit he barely got by Collazo. Hell he had to have help from the ref to beat an old KT and Juan Lazcano.

Hatton was a very good fighter, a little better than average champ. That's about it.

 

my friend are you junior witters best buddy or something? cotto beat maussa on cuts not a k/o like hatton did,collazo won 6 rounds as did hatton but the knockdown got hatton the win,lazcano knocked him all round the ring,i think lazcano won 1/2 rounds,castillo yes was shot ill give you that,PM well hatton did something cotto couldnt do i think you should watch those fights again bro

 

yeah KT was old but had just knocked out judah and mitchell so he wasnt that shot,watch the fight kt didnt look shot,he may have lost a little speed but wasnt shot,hatton beat everyone he needed to at lww,and please dotn say he didnt fight witter,bradley,etc.....cus those guys arent on his levelmalthough bradley may get there one day

 

Hamed, but not by a mile.

 

Prince Hamed.

 

The Prince ALL day and ALL night long!

When the Prince was there, so were Ricky Hatton and Joe calzaghe. Prince was box office, they werent.

 

prince nas by resume and H2H

 

What legacy does Hamed have?

A good exciting fighter who got lost in his own hypes . . . who quit after just one loss because the hypes won't work anymore.

He got humilated to the max . . . exposed and devasted.

A quitter. :deal

 

I can't believe this is even up for discussion HATTON has done great things for boxing the world over never mind just in Britain, he has the greatest fan base in the world because he wanted to fight ANYONE in his way to becoming p4p number 1, yes he didn't quite achieve it but he is a REAL man and fighter

On the other hand you have some daft prancing little s&&t with a decent punch who cleaned up all the B list fighters avoiding real fighters like the plague until backed into a corner and got totally embarressed and how does he react??? did he fill a stadium in Sheffield with 48000 people and go again?? NO he ran like the overrated embarrising pu&&y he is

If both ever met at the same weight in their primes Hatton would have chopped him in half, There is a lot more to a boxers make up than flash silky skills
