Ricky Hatton's Career Is So Similar To Naseem Hamed's Career.

[BIG H]

My thoughts are, that if Naz had've stayed with Ingle and continued to box rather than rely on single shots he could've beaten Barerra, Hatton could NEVER have beaten PBF.

[Fenster]

Since when is Hatton retiring? He's got a fight with powderpuff next followed by possible fights with Pac and the like.

I don't really see the comparison at all to be honest.

Hatton just fought in front of 55,000 adoring fans. Naz, over a year after the Barrera loss, chose Manuel Calvo as a comeback and looked so piss poor, and so clearly out of love with boxing, that he was booed out of the ring, never to be seen again.

Apart from being Brits that have/had great careers.. i don't see it.

ICB will be right if he loses to Paulie. Same rise to fame, same downfall, not being the same after the first loss.

Hatton will probably destroy Pac if they meet. But also would Hamed if he fought a Bantamweight.

Off the topic has anyone else heared Hatton v Pauli will b in october and not november

[Doot]

I think the Sept 11 ordeal was a big part of Naseems retirement

Hey Big H , about Naz/Barrera , i dont think so , Naz never could beat Barrera , he gave to Naz a real damn beat , if Naz would want fight again in that moment , Barrera could give him another beat............
I never liked that Naz.............

The comparison is an easy one to draw, they were both 'managed' by FW for the bulk of their careers.

Different characters though.

Yeah unbeaten under FW. Silly boys should have stayed with him.

[SE7EN]

Similar or not. It's still damn good observations by ICB.

[HattonTheHammer]

Hatton never once claimed he`d go his whole career unbeaten.

Hamed got beat because he was too reserved and afraid to get his hands dirty. Hatton on the other hand lost because he was too fool hardy and kept looking for that big KO punch.

Hatton came back from defeat like a true champion should, Hamed fell into oblivion and was never seen again (but for the whole calvo debacle)



Im sorry but can someone please explain to me the similaritys as its completely lost on me!!

[Memphis]

Hamed would have knocked seven shades out of Hatton at 10 stone, no doubt.

I agree with Big H, i think Naz would of beaten MAB i think he would of wore him down and stopped him late if he stopped with Ingle Naz was never the same fighter when he spilt from Ingle.

As for Hatton he is fighting Pauli next.
