Hatton is no HOFer but I guess he was a good B champion at best. But I just like reigning champions to fight young contenders.

Sorry G but what is your definition of a 'young contender?' And if so could you give me some names of the young contenders he ducked after he won his world title?

Just curious to actually know who this apparently long list of guys it was he avoided.

Yeah but I'm just saying like ok he took the title from a GREAT, long reigning champ Tszyu. Had the two fights with this era's best in Mayweather and Pacquiao. I don't feel like he ducked much fights. But I just feel he retired kinda early. I mean I would have liked to see him fight like a Danny Garcia or Devon Alexander or Maidana. If his heart wasnt in the sport I understand. but thats just my opinion. As for who he ducked in that time period, I dont know. Some say he ducked Witter on his way up and while he was champ but I dunno.

Dude now your all over place like a mad woman having a shit, haha.

If he felt he didn't have it anymore then he was 100% right to quit. We all know this is the last sport you should be doing if your heart isn't in it. Besides Hatton's kind of style is not one that has a lot of longevity in it.

Yeah ducking Junior Witter, right I can see how that would really tarnish your legacy If you're gonna say he didn't fight a bunch of hungry young contenders then at least be prepared to name 'em.
