Hatton was a Fluke!!

[skel1983]

You make me laugh mate. In one instance you discredit Hattons win agaisnt Kosta becasue of the age of Kosta, but in another instance, you put his wins up against Mayweather and Chevez as if they actully meant something.

"Went 12 hard rounds with Whittaker "

You failed to mention it was 9 years before.Also the great Chevez yes was great was a corpse when he fought Kosta them two fights dont go down as any relevance, and to even compare Kosta beating Chavez to Hatton beating Tszyuu is pathetic.

These names are the best wins for the two fighters.

Kosta

JUDAH - Current IBF Champ defended it 5 times went on to become undisputed 147 world champ defended it once

GONZALEZ - Was once WBC Champ defended it 11 times. 3 more world title shots 1 draw 2 loses

LEIJA - Won one World Title and drew in another world title shot all other title attempts he was defeated.

MITCHELL- Number 1 contender never won a world title.

TACKIE - Another contender never a world title holder fought Hatton 18 months after same sort of result.URKAL - Never world Champion 4 failed attempts solid European standard fighter.

HURTADO - One time world Champion won the vacant belt failed in two other attempts to win a world title.

MAYWEATHER - Shot to pieces not really a great scalp but still mentioned as he was a world champ was 8/9 years previous to this, Mayweather totally passed his best had lost over 10 times when Kosta met him

CHAVEZ - Great fighter one of the best of all time pity he was way past his best and had been knocled out many times and was fighting local mexican road sweepers prior to the Kosta fight.Id say they are Kostas best 10 wins.

Hatton

TSZYU - Was current defending 140 lb champion 10 times defending champion, his second reign as champ first one held the belt for 6 fights. Was p4p number 3.

CASTILLO - WBC 2 time 135 Champ defended it 6 times and 4 times. Never fought for a title after Hatton fight.

COLLAZO - Was the 147 WBA Champ, defended it once before losing to Hatton, has fought for a world title twice since and not been champion again

URANGO - Was current IBF Champ when he fought Hatton, first defence has since won back the IBF Title since and is the current 140 ibf world champion

MALIGNAGGI - Was the IBF Champ when Hatton fought him had defended his title twice before the Hatton fight.

MAUSSA - Was current WBA world champ first defence when Hatton fought him not won a title since.

LAZCANO - Never a World Champ tried three times never succeded.TACKIE - Never a World Champ another contender decent gatekeeper.

PHILLIPS - Over the hill past experienced champ who had beaton Kosta in the past and been a World Champion.So what would you say to that??


Compare, Hatton fought 5 World Champions when they were still World Champions, i no that Kosta had most of the starps through his reign. I honestly dont see much deifference in the quality of there best wins, but as usual you will overrate Kostas wins against Chavez and Mayweather who i put right at the bottom of his best wins.
