      Hatton = an over rated Gatti...
      After watching the Gatti/Ward trilogy I wouldn't
      disrespect Gatti like that.

        I dont think you know what your on about buddy ,IMO Hatton has a huge varied fan base ...with fans from as young as 7yr olds to 80 yr olds ..hes done more for boxing than mayweather ...hes made so many fans start watching the sport again
        It's not varried when it is limited to the UK. Getting a huge fanbase in the UK whilst lucrative doesn't say a lot about you as a fighter. Some guy on his first pro match filled up a stadium in Sunderland.
        i dont think we will ever see another fighter in MMA Or Boxing with a bigger more varied Fan base than Ricky Hatton has !
        Are you on crack? Pacquiao, De La Hoya, Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Hearns, Haggler, Pernell Whitaker, Chavez the list could really go on and on. Hatton doesn't have a varried fanbase he has a cult following.

        It's like comparing Scientology with Christianity.

        Lets see ether the UFC or any other boxer put 56000 fans through the gate to an event ..or 20000 fans abroad just to watch a weigh in....fcuk me the ufc can only get 20000 fans to go watch lol
        I wonder how many of those fans even know what a weigh in is. Considering all they did was Boo and cheer ( what they do at a football game) I'd say it was more about being loutish than anything else.

        ...now if mayweather still fought the way he does but carried himself a bit more like Hatton...would so many still hate on Floyd ?? i dont think so !...would more fans wanna see him fight ?
        It's about an image, Hatton is pretentious he tries to be humble ( He's quite arrogant) Mayweather plays the classical opera villain. After a while people would get tired of good guy vs good guy you need a provocative image.

        Dreamsparks said what I have said many times before, he's liked because he's one of the lads.

          The only reason Hatton can sell fights in the UK is because British ''fans'' are thugs. The same twats singing ''There's only one Ricky Hatton'' are the same twats who disgraced out country by booing the American national anthem.

          They don't care about watching boxing, they want to go out drink 14 pints out and behave loutish. World wide Floyd is a bigger draw than Hatton and has had more memorable fights than Hatton.

          Hatton saying that Floyd's a boring boxer and anyone who says that to me is a certified idiot that cannot appreciate art. I admit that some of his fights mainly at the higher weight classes could be seen as boring by some but his career has had some sweet performances when making certain claims you should know the fighters history.
          if mayweather could sell fights then why were fights against bruseles and baldomir nearly empty???? when dlh or hatton fight bums they still pac the house. use some plain and basic common sense WILL YA???

            This is a lie. PBF does sell tickets but it would take 5 months to sell em and at special promos.

                And that, coupled with excuses and that godawful wrestling style (not agression but cheating imo), is why I dislike hatton so much.

                    .
                    Ok then pray tell me when any of these great fighters that you mention have 30000 fans like Hatton does ..go from their own country and travel half way around the world to watch them fight??? Most of these 30000 Fans Hatton gets go abroad would even jump on a plane without a ticket even and would have to watch it on a screen in a Casino !
                    So tell me when any of these fighters you mention fought a bum in front of 56000 fans at home like Hatton did Against lascano ! ? or like the 20000 fans hatton could get at a weigh in and in another country ?

                    So Tell me when all these fighters did this cause i must of missed it !
                    Look i wasnt a huge Fan of Hattons style ...but all the time i have been around boxing never have never seen a fan following like he had !
                    He could fight ever 3 months in the UK and get 50000 fans watch him fight nobodys ...like i said i dont know of any other fighter with such a fan base!
