What I meant was that being in your prime isn't for just one fight. The Tszyu fight was definitely Hatton's greatest win, but he had many good ones afterward while he was still in his prime.

. . . hang on there loser. Hatton hasnt looked good in years. Paulie was a guy who had zero punch power so if we remove that non event from the list then he has shown that he peaked years ago.
If you want to make that out to be a great win then go ahead but it depends how much you rate Hatton. Ive never thought much of him but I dont think as much of Pac as the Filipinos do either.
Whilst Pacquiao trying to drain WWs for fights is a disgrace, his win over Hatton was phenomenal. Yes Hatton fought like an amatuer, but Pacquiao still beat the man at 140 in 2 rounds. Do I think Hatton was never the same post-PBF? Yes. Do I think he fought a stupid fight & ignored his corner? Yes. Does that take anything away from Manny? No. He did what he needed to do.
Also as much as someone can question his wins over past it versions of Morales & ODLH, he fought 2 very close fights with JMM. I felt he lost both, but he still made them both as close as can be & deserves respect for that.
& no way was Barrera shot when he first lost to Pac, he still managed to pull out one of his best performances against Morales in their 3rd fight a year later so no way was he washed up then.
and we're back![]()
