    Except your facts are not facts, and this is why people come to the conclusion you are blinded by hate because you don't present a balanced argument along with the fact you regularly criticize him just for his style and other trivial matters. Quite a lot of his opponents were top 10 worthy fighters, quite a few weren't also.

    You are about as objective as me on Hatton, the sooner you realise that and give it a rest as I have on that subject the better for all involved.

    Absolutely. I tried to convince myself that I didn't, but I havn't got the energy. I hate the fat little **** and I hate his style, he's the one and only guy I actually can't stand. Therefore I know nobody takes my opinion on him seriously, I'm not commenting on him any longer :yep

    I like Calzaghe. I think he's a gent. I also think he is a pretty limited boxer in ATG terms.

    Calzaghe was to exciting to watch, so much pure natural talent.

    Wrt Hatton, I wonder if Betty will ever see sense too? Somehow, I doubt it!

    I agree with this. Your comments on Hatton were about as negatively skewed as you could possibly get whilst still maintaining an element of credibility. However, I'm worried about Jeff, starting threads with a negative skew solely for the purpose of criticising the fighter, adding polls where the options are ridiculously biased, inability to leave the subject alone even when it's totally and utterly irrelevant... he's displaying classic symptoms of Bettyitis!

    Good chin, Good Power (in his prime), Good speed, Good jab, Good reflexes, Good ring general ship, good dedication, good trainer (for him you all have to admit), poor match making for a spell is his only draw back.

    Great fighter will miss him very soon
