HOW GOOD IS RICKY HATTON?
Now im not his biggest fan as you all know i think he's overated apart from beating an old Kostya i can't see what he's done since just beating easy champs now he's gunna fight a faded Castillo in my opinion but i want you guys to give me your opinions perhaps you can show me or tell me what it is im not getting.

Old Kosta Tszyu bla bla bla
less fights than Hatton, and no wars!!!!!!!! so why was he 'Old'
Don't remember him being called that before the fight when he was massive favourite and nobody gave Hatton a prayer
Re: HOW GOOD IS RICKY HATTON?
He was 35 nearly 36 had only fought once in 23 month and i gave Hatton all the chance in the world for these reasons
Re: HOW GOOD IS RICKY HATTON?
I'd favour Ricky over Judah ,Torres , Corrales ,Harris and M baye all night long !!
A year ago id have favoured him against Cotto but now im not so sure .
Cotto went through his blip in form when he was getting decked and rocked by fighters he was expected to beat and whilst Ricky is not getting hammered a few eyebrows are starting to be raised .
Only time will tell as far as the British fight public are concerned i think he's a legend but is he pund for pound ? Hmm ?
Castillio is a puncher and will have his last hurrah against Hatton but he still has enough Spunk to make it a glorius last hurrah .
Ricky has beaten emphatically good fighters at the weight Tackie , Oliveria , Philips and KT and yet struggled since he's been champ .
Time will tell .

only foughts once in 23 months. so he had a pretty good rest then didn't he!!
Didn't look old in that fight against Mitchell either
Must've just aged overnight before he fought Hatton :-\
Lennox Leis didn't look too old at 35 when he was knocking out Michale Grant - and he had had more fights and harder fights than Tszyu - just one example
He wasn't old, he was just out thought and out strategied!!!
Re: HOW GOOD IS RICKY HATTON?
But is 4 good names in fourty odd fights enough and the names are old or has beens in my opinion and now he is gunna fight Castillo who is abit past it too this is why i dont get what im missing
Re: HOW GOOD IS RICKY HATTON?
I have noticed recently that Rickys Biomechanics have changed. Just an observation I think hes got a hip problem.

4 big names in fourty odd fights is good how? to be getting called a great fighter he needs more than this in my opinion and thats how people are talking about him thats why i don't get it.
e.g Kostya Tszyu W31 L2 D0 and in this record
Mayweather
Rodriguez were'nt bad
Hurtado were'nt bad
Gonzalez
Ruelas
Phillips
Bergman
Mitchell twice
Urkal
Judah
Tackie
and Hatton i suppose now
i make that 12 decent names in 33 fights just a point

Hatton or Tszyu
Re: HOW GOOD IS RICKY HATTON?
Like Hatton or not......it is going to take a very elite fighter to beat him at 140.
