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

[RozzySean]

Both men were on a high until they both went to America for the 1st time when they were both exposed somewhat, Naz against Kelley, Hatton against Collazo. Then they both have major fights and both were dominated, then they both have one comeback fight and don't look like the same fighters, and now by the looks of it Hatton is retiring just like Naz did whats your thoughts on this ??

Here's the difference. Hatton was "exposed" in America by a naturally larger man who happened to be a southpaw. He could have taken his first fight at 147 against a washed up, blown up JWW, like Floyd did against Mitchell. He lost to Mayweather, who is better p4p than Barrera by a good amount. I'm big Barrera fan and I hate Mayweather, but facts are facts. All the flaws in Naz's game were exposed by Barrera, while Ricky just lost to the better fighter in Floyd.

I've heard nothing of Ricky retiring. He's still the man to beat at 140 I see no reason why he won't be the top dog at 140 for the next 1-2 years.

This is pretty close to on the nose,I dont like Mayweather as a person,but he was probably the best P4P fighter out there. Ricky was simply out classed.
It had come so easy for Naz,that he developed alot of bad habits,when he got stuck in there with a really good fighter in Barrera,he didnt know what to do. You can see the confusion and bewilderment in his face for the later rounds of that fight. I think Naz got caught believing his own hype.
