    Hatton was a good fighter, didn't have the greatest of skills but his will and chin took him very far. I always enjoyed his fights, he should be respected, shame once you lose you instantly become an overhyped bum on this site...

    Hatton = HOF

    Hatton a**-****ed himself.

    The height of his fame is the FMJ fight and the MP fight.Then he retired.Tons of casual fans only know him for eating a turnbuckle or "falling asleep" during round 2 of a big fight.That sucks for him.

    However,I know him,not even for any particular win but for his spirit.For a time,Ricky Hatton was a body beating entity.Truthfully,nobody has come close to his efforts since he retired.R.I.P. Ricky Hatton and cheers to the guy at the pub.

    Cortez was too involved in that fight,but Ricky was always gonna lose,he was determined to walk into a left hook.Then he followed up that performance by being more than willing to walk into Pacquiao's left hand.

    If you see Ricky at the pub,please tell him to not walk around his chin out.

    Don't forget lazcano he had hat ton I trouble in the 9th if I could remember , was holding on for dear life ref was on Ricky's side, Noway was he losing at home for his home coming fight,

    His biggest enemy was himself and the mayweather's screwed him big time.

    Floyd took his soul, after that he was never the same.

    His training camp with Sr was a farce, I remember watch 24/7 pacman ko'd his opponent in sparring this was actually shown,

    Next week Ricky done the same but the camera cut away showed Sr then showed his partner on the ground.

    Ricky was a good fighter but he made bad decisions which reflected in the ring, one of England's best but the world no, 140lber maybe but he let himself down and he knows it.

    Hatton got his due when he was prime and undefeated, I think he was around P4P 5 or 6 at that time. It was after his loss to PBF when his stock fell and after his loss at the hands of Pac he became a bum.

    Pimp c is right in a sense, he was mid on the p4p list but gets a very bad undeserved rep!

    If they had the same crowd pleasing style like Hatton they would be P4P #1 and 2.
