Rickys had more fights and still only has the meaningless WBU title, Rickys going worse than Joe. Ricky has no excuse for fighting these terrible opponents, the 140lb division is stacked, yet Ricky has yet to fight a single top ten opponent. Cotto is putting Ricky to shame, bigtime.
Yes, Ricky has made 13 defences of his joke world title, so is close to the record himself (laughs). The sad thing is, neither Ricky or Calzaghe have ever had a true defining fight.
Hatton is obviously as much a greedy pup as Warren as he allowed himself to be removed from the WBA mandatory to continue defending his joke belt. If he had agreed to purse bids and taken a smaller payday he would have got the shot but he went for the easy option. I hope he gets clocked soon.
He probably will get clocked soon. His hunger seems to have gone, his last two performances have been his most uninspired, his next fight should continue the trend and he might lose, lets hope so. I remember defending Ricky after the Tackie fight from Americans who where saying Tackie was shot and Ricky is a protected fraud. I was saying the only way is up and it will be world class from now on, ha.

Sky show anything these days
Thought Fridays bill was great and can't argue with most of their domestic stuff. It's just on the world and European scene where they haven't got a clue.

takaloo - alexander was made because haye - thompson was on the same night. sky even ruined the result for people because they were jealous. :x
I was complaining about SKY on another thread when they announced the result, it was a cheap and deliberate shot across the stations. As for Calzaghe he is always looking rough these days, every where he goes he seems to have that bimbo in tow sitting about looking pretty...bastard

Yeah it was a cheap shot by Sky, I'm not sure if its intent was f'up the BBC coverage or just to have a laugh at the expense of have their faith in Haye, or was it to rub it in to Haye's people himself. Remember, Sky hyped Haye alot when he was a very young amateur. He let them down in the ring back then but Sky continued to mention him. I'm sure they were expecting him to sign with them.
