    it's arguable that Hatton is in his prime . He's not been the same since Tszyu really, 3 and a half years ago .

    Absolutely. Hatton was peak against Tszyu. Hatton these days struggles with the likes of Lazcano. To say he's anywhere near his prime is ******ed.

    He struggled against Lazcano, yes, but he shut out a slickster like Malignaggi following that bout.

    IMHO, that was his best performance since Tszyu.

    So I think its ridiculous to call him far removed from his prime. You can't compare every fight with the Tszyu fight, for that was his best performance. If you do so, then every fighter to ever lace them up was only prime for one night.

    His best performance since zoo? How pathetic! I mean you

    His best performance since was against JLC and not against a one handed brittle handed fighter from NY.

    When he was being ducked by Hamed, Morales and Barrera.

    And was a consistent entrant on the top ten P4P lists.

    Real true boxing fanatics knew who JMM was long before he fought Pac.

    Most *******s are groupies and boxing started for them after 2004.

    What the...

    Hatton is no longer prime after getting knocked out by the ring post! :D

    and because I want Uliuli to praise whatever boxing knowledge I have, I think Marquez won twice over Pac! :D :D :D ... in his dreams!!!

    That he was being ducked by prince, marco and eric is subjective. Fact remains that he priced himself out when morales offered him a fight. I bet you don't know that. LOL

    Please stop :|

    When a fighter acts like a dumbass he will be called on it.

    "Please don't be mean to Manny, lets all hold hands and pray for him instead.":|

    This is a BOXING forum, we talk about boxers, good or bad.

    And no, I am not sore. I am happy that most of my Favorite fighters are shining right now.:yep
