And Mayweather didn't need Joe Cortez to help him beat him if you believe that then you're probably smoking crack.
I don't know how anybody could ever think that Joe Cortez did not play a significant role in how events unfolded. In that respect HattontheHammer has made some valid points. Mayweather might not have needed Cortez, but having him at his beck and call certainly helped make a difficult task much easier.

In the wake of the Pac loss, I think we are seeing a case of strong revisionism taking place regarding the career of Hatton. None of it for the positive. A shame really because Hatton has been a very decent fighter. Getting blown out in two was always going to be fuel for the cynics and I think we are seeing that on forums today.
Miles, no offence mate, but when you made THAT thread about JT, I don't see why he didn't just throw the names Calzaghe, Barrera & Hatton back at you.

Ricky was a very very good fighter. The difference was that Mayweather & Pacquiao are GREAT fighters & that's why the outcome would never have changed if Ricky's mum got to ref both fights with his dad, brother & girlfriend judging. There's no shame in acknowledging his limits.

I personally don't see what Tszyu did that Hatton didn't in terms of 'legacy'. KO'd Zab & then...
