I like the idea that his Career goes a long way to dispel the myth of the 'Unbeaten' fighter.
You know what i mean?

Yeh agreed mate. I mean he has lost 5 in reality :) and is p4p number 1 in most people's books.
The way the thread title was worded, I thought you were gunna say his eyes or his hair or maybe the way his smiles when he walks to the ring, but then I realised the thread was made by Jimboogie, and not Saddoboxer ;DQuote:

Half of the divisional champs at the very least have suffered heavy KO`s in their career yet manage to fight on.
If mosley/hopkins had been british we`d of all demanded they retire years before they actually reached their full potential!!
I like the fact that he is pretty old.
Eventually someone was going to say something like that...Quote:

We should back off im some cases. Like in Kahn's case this id definitely true. Much like Paqcquiao, who lost the majority of his fights early in his career, Khan could be seen to of bounced back from his losses.
But all things are relevant because for someone like Hatton, who suffers devastating losses with an almost exponential rate of severity, you could argue that his day has gone?
I appreciate it very much if other members here start a PAC thread... I can just imagine the flak and negative comments I get if I was the one starting or creating this thread... ;DQuote:

Pac's early losses mean eff all because no-one knew him back then. Since then his losses to Morales and Marquez have been close in great fights.
Mosley and Hopkins have never been knocked out or humiliated.
