Oh it's a broken hand now. Last time it was because someone had come in and massaged Tommy Hearns' legs when Manny was out of the room....the guy always seems to have an excuse when one of his fighters loses, it amazes me...
I mean, he was moaning about Hamed not training well, surely it's part of a trainers job to insist they either do train, or find themselves a new trainer.

I've heard the leg massage story, and i do find it amazing that he let Naz , Lewis (1st Rahman fight) and Harris , either undertrain or train to hard. If your the head man of the team you should be giving the orders.
It is hard to walk away from the money if the fighter doesn't listen though.

Guys, stop getting carried away. Realistically Ricky should be able to EASILY win this. Can't believe they are still saying on Sky that a fight against Gatti would be great. Maybe a year ago but not any more. Wait until you see, Hattons first fight in the US will be Gatti.

The same leg massage bullshit they came out with when Klitschko gassed himself against Brewster.
Hagler would have beaten Hearns 99 times out of 100 at that stage.
