With Hatton's face you can't look good at any weight.

I guess he went into boxing as he had literally nothing to lose.lvlarc_uk wrote:Not your type eh?pundit wrote:With Hatton's face you can't look good at any weight.

Hatton is gonna rely on hooks rather than straight punches in this fight and that will be his undoing.
Collazo has good feet and peppers away all night, jab jab, cross, step to the side and cover up.
Collazo by UD
Same as Hoko v Vargas only on points unless Rickys face busts up.

Billy Graham looks like he's off his nut.

Techinically though doesn't he go into the ring weighing a little over 11 stone dehydrating his body like most fighters? So really he's heavier than 147 on there.jamesmcdonnell wrote:I must say, Ricky has looked in fantastic nick in the photos I've seen of his recently, looking very very strong and thickset compared to the Tszyu fight, when he looked fit, but a little drawn
We all know that lifting weights doesn't equate to much neccesarily in boxing, but he's been upping the weights he can lift. I don't know if the figures are impressive, but he's been bench pressing 120kgm, and shoulder pressing 105kg, which seems pretty good for someone weighing only 147 lbs.
Where did youfind out he lifts that much?Impressive though.
Hatton's site only shows him doing weights on his legs normally.

Just watched the build up programme on Sky.Showed Ricky training in Boston at a place called Sommerville's I think.
He looks in great shape.
Hatton ko before round 7.

Think Vargas was better than Collazo and Hatton better than Hokko (great fighter that he was) though.Graham Brett wrote:Hatton is gonna rely on hooks rather than straight punches in this fight and that will be his undoing.

Yes, Collazo is the bigger man - but I'm not sure he is the stronger man - Vargas was vs Hokko. Hokko couldn't walk through Vargas, but Hatton could do Collazo.
Cuts could be a serious issue though.

Based on those photo's I'm changing my prediction. Hatton KO8

Ricky has stated before that come fight night he weighs 154. In his interview, he said that actually coming in under weight at 147 is just as hard, as he has added 5lbs of solid muscle. He's currently 7 lbs over 147, but I guess the difference is that there's less water weight and more muscle tissue.

I would also want to know approx what time Hattons fight is kicking off as I will be fishing and will set my alarm to listen to it on the radio! It is usually about 2-2:30 on the east coast isn't it?JimmyJamJerusalem wrote:Cut the shit, Collazo is pants, and its a crap bill AGAIN!!
What time is Hatton actually fighting???
Posted: 11 May 2006, 05:10
Yes, expect Hatton to be in the ring shortly after 2am UK time (9pm local time Boston).numpty wrote:I would also want to know approx what time Hattons fight is kicking off as I will be fishing and will set my alarm to listen to it on the radio!

Our era's Duran v Leonard...hopefully, although could turn out more Leonard v Dave Boy Green.Terence wrote:No probs mate, better than trying to figure out the Spud/Pepsi/Boxingchat/Livra fiasco on other strands.ciscokid wrote:Some great pictures!

Hatton is looking in great shape and is a very strong man for his weight. Bloody annoying when someone is a genetic freak!
Shamless self-publicity I know but I had a great experience in this guys gym:

Let's remember that on the night this should be sport, not a cut-throat heartless business, and hope for a good fight on the night...
...and a win for Hatton to set-up that Floyd fight off course. Who wouldn't want to see them two fight? One of the most attractive fights in the world today.

Graham looks rough as a badger. He's lost a lot of weight I reckon. What's the story?
Posted: 11 May 2006, 07:46
Dose anyone think that carrying that much more muscle (which he seems to be doing), will slow him down at all? Not realy an expert ut I would have thought carrying it mite
Posted: 11 May 2006, 07:49
He's not so big that it will affect him much, he hasn't done a Shane Mosley, also depends how much flexibility work he has done.

just a guess BUT he has been trianing intensely with the most relentless mother in boxing?TheGoods wrote:Graham looks rough as a badger. He's lost a lot of weight I reckon. What's the story?

Also, I have personally seen Collazo three times and he is not a bum, but only just the right side of being one. Hatton willl beat him without a doubt.
Personally, I hope Hatton looks shite and get's beat but it's unlikely unless the beer catches up with him. That will happen one day but not this day.Hatton in five but really who cares.
You have really got it bad!!
how many times did you slag Ricky off when he was making your boss all that money?
no one cares what you think tea boy!

Hatton looks brilliant and he has a heart like a bull. I like such boxers who are genuine and who are not just handsome businsessmen in gloves like Chicken de la Tortilla-Kournikova. Ricky would this lady eat for breakfast....
GO Ricky KO 6
