He beats Mayweather in November?
That would make three victories against three elites, with an unbeaten record to boot.

I don't really go along with all this ATG stuff anymore. It's all so subjective. It's often even outright conjecture. Same with the P4P stuff.
If Hatton beats Mayweather then he'll be one of the most successful fighters of this decade. That much is for sure.

Wins over Judah, Maywether, and Zoo? He'd be HOF for sure, and history would probably be very nice when they look back at his career.

Well, since PBF has decreed himself as the greatest P4P fighter who ever lived, then I guess Hatton would inherit that position.

Of course, with his record and the fact he has beaten the p4p number mean he is a locked on ATG.

I would think so if he continued with a couple more big wins to ice the cake.
All time great?, hell no. He needs more major wins.

He made a mistake, I'm sure he meant Castillo.

The Judah win was easily the best of his career. It was almost as if it never happened, it was such a whitewash.

He'd definitely improve big time if he got this win, since Mayweather is unbeaten and whatnot, but I'd still look for him to get another big win.

He meant well.
:lol: ...but it sure is funny when people get so excited they start talking about fighters that never been in the the same ring.:rofl

Hatton is already arguably great and if he beat Floyd he wouldn't be great, he'd start to battle for legendary status with fighters like Leonard, Robinson and Armstrong.
At the moment he has a top 135 and 140 pounder on his record. In Floyd he could beat a top 130 pounder, plus be linear in his second weight class!!!

This modern breed of fighter seems to be trying to seek approval as an ATG as soon as they beat a well-known opponent.

Yes - he would have a 44-0 record with titles in 2 weight classes beating Mayweather, Tszyu, Castillo, Collazo, Phillips, and Tackie. He would be on the borderline, but I would consider him an all time great.

Beating the #1 or 2 p4p fighter in the sport after beating Castillo and Tszyu? Yeah, that probably earns him ATG status. Or at least gets him close.

in terms of Greatness i think he will make the Hall of Fame.
and he probably only needs another 2 or 3 title wins to be assured a place in the HOF in my opinion.
