    Do against todays top 14o?

    Matthysse?
    Garcia?
    Alvarado?
    Rios?
    Peterson?
    Judah?
    Provonikhov?

    Hatton was THE MAN at 140, but the competition at 140 is tougher today than when Ricky dominated, even a few years back sucks we didn't get to see Fatton against Alxender,Khan,Timbo,Ortiz ,Maidana when they were 140

    I think he beats Rios, Alvarado, Garcia, today's Judah, Peterson and I've only seen Provodniov so I can't say but I wouldn't write Hatton off against him. Matthyse would have been good, it would have definitely been a hard fight and I'd probably favour Matthyse but Hatton is more proven.

    Not in England where he will be allowed to hold at will, headbutt, shove, elbow, low blow, rabbit punch, tactical combinations to the back of the head, body slam and whatever else I'm missing.

    Garcia beats him also
    Alvarado beats him
    Rios batters him
    Peterson beats him on points
    Judah fatton actually wins this as judah as no heart
    Provonikhov beats him at his own game

    It's hilarious how underrated Hatton actually is. The sad thing is, idiots underrate him because of his losses and completely forget who he lost to. I don't think Garcia or Matthysse would batter prime Hatton, Rios batters him!? :lol: Seriously, lay off the cheap crack.

    Hatton beats them all, maybe Mattysse would hurt him because Hatton doesn't have a granite chin but he destroys the others.

    Hatton was an elite fighter in his prime. He's only lost to Pacquiao and Mayweather.

    Hatton is no ATG that's for sure but he's been getting a lot of **** on here lately. In his day the kid was a true handful. He had the ability to beat everyone mentioned. Is it a lock that prime Hatton takes them all apart? No but the people saying everyone on down the line stops him is pretty ignorant.
     
  8. Hatton is a glass jawed joke. Everyone of those you named would shatter chin.

    I know its ridiculous, only lucas stands a chance, due to power, but in my opinion the Tzsyu hatton fought (past his best, but still world class) was better than lucas

    Hatton had a Glass Jaw and would be sparked by most of those if they fought anyplace but the UK where Hatton relied on crooked referees and judges.

    Hatton might successfully mug Judah and Peterson to a decision.
    He would get outslugged by Rios and Alvarado.
    He would get sparked by Lucas, Danny and Ruslan.
