    I would rather be Hatton'd. Less long term damage....

    You could also argue that Gatti wasted a training camp, he landed nothing, he couldn't, that has to be far more frustrating. I'm surprised he even fought again after mayweather, he took a career ending beating. It was also alot ****ing harder to watch as a fan than the Hat - Pac fight.

    I'd rather be Koed quick than have to take 6 round of complete domination infront of all my fans and in my own back yard. especially after being constantly belittled in the buildup and left in a hospital bed. It would hurt my ego more knowing that someone was able to son me like that, opposed to being knocked out, as anyone can knock anyone out at any time, thats the nature of the game

    voted for the wrong one. I rather get hatton'd a quick fast knockout rather getting beaten up at will for 6 rounds and looking foolish by looking a like a punchbag like Gatti was.

    Folks dont get it that 1 shot and done is way better than taking a beating for round after round.

    never been knocked cold before and i dont really wanna know what its like

    but ive also never been battered for 18 minutes with no chance of fighting back

    both are pretty bad

    i think id rather take the one shot i feel repeated blows do more damage in the long run

    I myself would rather be Hatton'd

    But I'm sure Hatton would rather have been Gatti'd in that Pac fight. Put him as the leading highlight in KO videos.

    You would rather get Gatti'ed ? He took so many flush shots for so many rounds. I would not want that.

    With Ricky Hatton, it was more embarrasing because he was supposed to be on that same level as Mayweather and Pacquaio and got KO'ed quickly.

    At least if your Gatti you go out like a warrior. With Hatton you get flattened out on your ugly fat ass. So Gattied

    Hatton'ed sustained beatings to the head weather its a tear up or one sided causes more LONG TERM brain damage than getting your trigger pulled in the second round, the KO happening early helped ricky in the long term

    Hatton looked like a complete fool. Gatti'd, Gatti'd for 12 rounds.
