Well done Ricky Hatton

Post by Andrew »

Got his first world champion last night.

And it's a legit belt taken from the champion as an away fighter. Not a vacant world title win against a no hoper

One of my favourite fighters and good to see him suceed as a trainer. Particularly after Relikh got robbed in Scotland.

Glad they got it. Particularly as you could hear Ricky saying quietly before the scores were announced "We won that, but we're not going to get it" - loved the genuine surprise in the corner a few moments later.

He should have wont it last year with Relikh. Was a close fight, but hometown boy got the nod.

Made up for Ricky. Had some tough times over the years but a genuinely decent bloke.

Personally thought ZZ deserved it on the night and looked like he wanted it much more than Warren.

Ricky had a false start with Lucas Browne against Chagaev. This time he's got one he can hang onto.

Could've fairly gone either way, though by very narrow margins. The 8-4 cards were generous to Burns, and 10-2 was disgusting.

I had it 115-114 Relikh, and it's hard for me to see how he didn't win at least the first 2 and last 3.

I had the exact same scorecard. I think the 10-2 judge wanted to ensure Burns retained the title.

I know he promotes Browne, does he train him too?

No. Browne was being trained by Rodney Williams with some input also from Nigel Benn.
