Why are people acting like Hatton is underappreciated? He probably made more monies than Barrera and Morales combined, and is probably more popular than 'em. Even though they're both greater fighters and fought about teh same time as he did. If anything he's overappreciated.

the heavier the weight class generally the higher the payday and popularity with casual fans.
not always the case but most of the time true.
you'd be shocked at how much say a mediocre heavyweight like tua was getting compared to a top super bantamweight like barrera was at the same time.
fat boy was taking in like $500k-750k for some of his hbo fights before.

by the time they got to 135 they were at the end of their careers.
his fans like him. they paid to see him.
money is about what you can get NOT what you deserve.
