He's been a pro 7 years, 36-0 and still no genuine title. Compare that with Cotto and its an absolute joke.
Agreed and as a big Hatton fan it's a bit embarrising.
Stupid question but why hasn't/doesn't he fight for the European title?

Brodie for me is the biggest shame. He was robbed on his own doorstep.

As far as I'm concerned Colin Jones WAS a world champion he takes so much credit from his fights with McCrory.

Also, I think Colin Dunne is worth a mention - a great little fighter in his prime capbable of winning one of the major belts but never even got a shot. A story of our Sky times.

Did i misread something, whoops. I never got to see the Jorrin fight, but all the American press said it was a robbery, which is usually a pretty good indicator it was.
