Are you really being serious? Ducked? You don't fight Urango, Tszyu, Collazo, Pacquiao, Mayweather unless you are the shittest ducker of all days!
Exactly. You can accuse a lot of people of ducking but to blame Hatton for it as well? That is a load of old codswallop.

Hatton might be many things, but a ducker he ain't.
A ducker, no.. but he did have an inflated record. IMO Urango was his most impressive fight as Urango didn't have the technical skills to deal with Hatton's style. A dirty victory over an old Tszyu means little to me, and the fact that you have to mention Collazo on his list of big fights (a fight that he was undeniably hurt in and arguably lost), just shows that he was never in that top echelon of fighters. A very likable, popular fighter, but by no means one of the best. Cotto would beat him him now and would've killed him when they were both undefeated. No question in my mind.
