If Hatton beats manny pacquiao does he surpass Calzaghe in the British ATG rankings?

Despite being an inferior fighter ?

Hatton will have a better resume than Floyd Mayweather if he beats Pac, does that mean he's a better fighter ?


Jesus. Honestly, I should have expected this.

 

Sport is about what you accomplish not what your pontential was.

Boxing is simple...... you have two guys in a ring and one has to beat the other.... and your legacy is determined on who you beat. If the were talking about just talent then you could put Naz at the top of the British ATG list.

Joe may have been the more talented BOXER.... but I rate Hatton as a better fighter, who would have been competative in any era of boxing.... I really couldn't say the same about Joe.

Its all subjective..... but I rate actual accomplishments over ifs and buts

 

Why would Hatton have a better record than Mayweather if he beats Pac?

Like it or not, record and achievements do play a major part when ranking fighters. Otherwise we'd be debating Howard Davis' place in history....

 

He wouldn't, he'd have a win over Pac and wins over a shot to **** Castillo and an ancient Tszyu.

 

I have them pretty close at the moment anyway, based on resume, achievements etc. I think their competition is pretty similar, and should Hatton beat Manny Pacquiao I'd rate him higher than Calzaghe. Manny is better than anyone Calzaghe has on his resume, aswell as Hatton having Tzsyu.

It's an if at the moment anyway, even though I reckon Hatton beats Manny.

 

Manny Pac the natural Flyweight who was weight drained coming down from 147?
