P4P who was better: Nasem Hamed or Ricky Hatton?

[BIG H]

Interesting debate me thinks

[boxingbantz]

Who is fatter would be a more interesting debate.

Not really

[Mark TKO]

yep very interesting. Both great fighters who knocked on the door of the elite but came up short when it mattered.

I have to admit I can't decide either way

I don't think Hamed got 'found out' as badly as Hatton did. He just deidn't have the 'sack' to come back after the defeat. With a different gameplan he could potentially have beaten MAB.

[Spicoli]

Hamed much more charismatic and devistating hitter but a one trick pony really. I go Hatton. Both had short comings, just think Hatton had more depth. And he wasn't as big a floppy eared twat as Hamed

i dont think hatton got 'found out' at all, its not as if he ever lost to an average boxer and the pac fight was clearly at the end of his carear when the punch resistance had gone

to the debate - hamed had the more tallent, he could have been an all time great but didnt have the dedication, even when his career took off in america he wasnt training properly

hatton probably acheived more (slightly) so id say him, although hamed could have been so much more

I'd say Naseem edges it

I was buying boxing mags in 90's and prince and Roy were taking turns at number one p4p whenever they would win, similar as PAC and floyd

I was buying Club international Men's world and Razzle.

Hatton ofcourse. He excelled himself to the point where he get to fight the two of the world's best - Pacquiao and Mayweather.

Hamed somehow only fought the #3 p4p Barrera.

[C-Lo]

I go with Hatton. Hatton's biggest win was Tszyu, does Hamed have a win as significant as that? And probably because Hatton took on these 2 generation's all time greats. Hamed didn't fight JMM, Morales, Pac who were in his weight class or within his weight class.

Exactly what I was going to say! Find me a win on Hamed's resume that matched Hatton's over Tszyu.

Potential though, I think Hamed was the better fighter and could've reached a higher P4P ranking but you don't get that unless you actually fought your way to it.

[Pavlik]

In terms of achievement Hatton all the way, in terms of potential for greatness, NAZ.

[Dropanuke]

Naz was the official p4p number one as I said before and him and Roy jones were always out pound for pounding eachother
