    I think Jermaine did a little more.

    Froch was not as bad as you think. Taylor was pretty clear in the ring afterwards. KP has actually made statements on the kind of thing JT would need to do to over come his 'deficit'. Low weight, high reps to overcome the muscle fatigue he seems to suffer.

    You are clearly speaking with the union jack hanging out of your ass.

    Hatton gets the edge due to his consistency and the controversy of Jermain's biggest wins dragging him down slightly. I don't think very highly of either in a long term sense, and i don't think either of them have HoF worthy resumes. Though Ricky will get in due to his massive popularity, which has been great for the sport.

    Taylor is more done. As we haven't seen Hatton post-Pac, so we don't really know how big its affect on him is.

    Good question. Hatton although was completely outclassed and suffered a humiliating early ko defeat, he still has an army of fans and could still probably sell out soccer arenas in England. J.T. on the other hand, was not only very competitive in his last fight, he was on track to win before running out of gas. He however has nowhere near the same following as Hatton. IMO both could continue their careers for different reasons but the one who is more "DONE" has got to be Hatton knowing he's been completely outclassed twice now when fighting elite competition.

    Taylor.

    Ricky's loss doesn't indicate he is done . . . he got caught early thus the result. :deal

    jermain


    hes only won 1 fight in the last 2 years & that was against a beyond shot jeff lacy BUT i do believe he was way ahead going into the last round of the froch fight & believe he can still have some success in the super 6

    They're both done. To which extent is irrelevant. It's like t-bone steak, once it's done, it's only good for the garbage can.

    Ricky Hatton's punch resistance is gone but still wants it. Jermain has the tools to fight but no desire!!

    Hatton is more done, But put a fork in both of them.
