I have him easilly in the top 10. He's behind Mayweather, Pacquiao, R. Marquez, Wright, J.M. Marquez, and Hopkins. So he's number 7 for me - I had him at 8 before the fight so he moves up 1 spot. I have him above Miguel Cotto since he has stopped Tszyu and Castillo and also won a belt at 147. Calzaghe and Barrera round out my top 10 with Taylor, Mosley, Kessler, and Calderon among the elite looking in.
not really at all in my opinon.It was a good performance but that hook and hold **** will not hold up with any of the serious guys at 147
Wasn't Castillo shot? Wasn't Hatton cheating with this cheap body shot? Hatton will drop outside top 10 for sure.
:yep He beat a legit, former great, but I'm not at all impressed with his performance; I'm more disappointed with Castillo than anything else
Kostya Tszyu and Jose Luis Castillo , that is two Big Time on Hatton's resume. Both wins by KO as well. You would think that would have to put him up there.
How did he cheat with the body shot? Is it illegal to throw left hooks to the body? Drop out of the top ten? After a KO in 4 over JLC? No way
Sad for me to say, but it pushes him back into my Top 10, to #8 or 9. It's sad for me because it bumps out my boy Cotto who I just put in there.
Anywhere between 6-8 if fair, below is starting to "hate", and top 5 is starting to "hug". 1. Floyd Mayweather Jr. 2. Winky Wright 3. Manny Pacquiao 4. Rafael Marquez 5. Juan Manuel Marquez 6. Bernard Hopkins 7. Jermain Taylor 8. Ricky Hatton 9. Miguel Cotto 10. Joe Calzaghe
