Hitchens got steamrolled in that debate. Craig was pathetic as far as arguments go, but he does present his case well in structured debate formats (which is noticeable in extended Q&As, as his performance dips noticeably against actual philosophers). He really likes him some Special Pleading, straw man and the fallacy of oversimplification.
And Hitchens did numerous fallacies actually.
Indeed. He's seen, by the philosophers I've seen assess him like Stephen Law, as a sort of C-list, okay philosopher, with a minor standout in the philosophy of time (and even then only from a theological perspective if I remember correctly).
