    Naz for me, but it's a good question. It feels like they both reached a similar level in the sport, but given their ability Hatton over-achieved and Hamed under-achieved.

    Prince Naseem Hamed!!!

    In terms of popularity, influence on the sport, and share entertainment.

    Also he was a more emphatic and impressive fighter too.

    Naz for me. Even my mum used to sit in the living room, with the rest of the family, and watch Naz fight. She never did that when Hatton was on :lol:.

  9. As I was waiting for the page to load my thoughts were 'talent: Naz. Achievement: Hatton'.

    I reckon Naz dominating his division for years, his huge popularity and overall im[act on british boxing is far more than Hattons finest moment of beating Tszyu.

    Absolutely it is. When all is said and done history will be far kinder to Naz who had a MASSIVE impact on British boxing in the same era as Benn Eubank and LL. Than the mediocre run that Ricky had.
