Secondly - he is a fat little Chav who goes round cheating on his bird, drink himself to death and snorting loads of coke.

I'll remember him for being a good body puncher who rode Frank warrens cash cow until he thought he was an elite fighter. Then we all know he got destroyed and spent the last 4 years of his career as a one punch then clinch machine.

The man is a mess.

The mighty POB wrote:So you can't actual list the many world class men he "outclassed " can you. Ou can actually only list an old kosta.

Thanks for proving me right.

mguigan boxed a old drained pedroza who fought at lightweight after they boxed.

stracey boxed a shot napoles.

& tzyu's last performance before hatton was a crushing win over sharmbay mitchell who previously gave him nightmares before pulling out injured, so he had improved on a performance against a champion & it looked like he would smash hatton & he never.

McGuigans resume is far superior to Hattons in regards opposition- McGuigan defeated a prime Juan LaPorte and beat one of the best fighters never to win a world title in Bernard Taylor. Bernard Taylor was a brilliant fighter and it was a crying shame that he never won the world title.

this is very disrespectful to a guy i and many other young fighters look upto, i no what he did is wrong and disgusting but remember all the top nights of fighting he brought to the tv beforehand he inspired alot of fighters like myself.

But how many impressionable kids will now be inspired to snort cocaine in "industrial quantities?"

Has he lost weight or has his missus just, as it looks, been to soccer worlkd to buy him some supsiciously looking new clobber in XXL to make him look thinnner. No one said Coke made you put weight on, did they?

Yes Hatton basked in former glories and was idolised for that. Now his credability is shot and he is nothing more than a sad junkie.

The mighty POB wrote:Let's look at the facts ;

Ricky was a good fighter at his peak, not great and certainly not elite or even near.

His best win was against an old shot kosta. Since that fight he fought horribly, one punch / clinch, ref breaks it, one punch clinch. - his last 4/5 fights have been awful and was seconds away from being knocked out by collazo. Apart from the kd collazo dominated him.

At elite level he was destroyed by PAC and floyd.

Between fights when he was at his peak he was putting on more than 3.5 stone and being a lager / pie man. His trainers told him this ruining his health and his ability to fight but still he ignores it. Now he is a coke head, lager lout and is snagging round behind his birds back.

The man is a Chav, and a walking mess. He needs to sort his act out and stop saying I'm rocky from a council estate etc etc.

To summarise a good fighter at his peak, not elite and under just under world. As a man he is a mess and needs to take a look at himself.

Sadly the BBBoC got rid of one potential avenue for structure.
