I wasn't expecting that. That was a bad KO for Ricky Hatton.

What next for the Hitman?

A full and speedy recovery I hope

the guy is boiled down & out :!: pacman has never fought at the weight b4,he was strong :!: hatton looked feeble.

Why were you surprised by a ko by pac? it was obvious only i had hatton lasting longer

welcome to Boxrec Kammy

I didn't see the shot properly cos of the stream dragging but it looked a bad one. I hope Rick's OK, the signs hopefully suggest he isn't badly hurt.

Why did Buffer announce that as a TKO.......it was , as you say, a KO to my knowledge.

TKO because the referee waved the fight off. A KO would have been if Hatton was counted out.

he was great b4 the fight but i honestly dont believe thats the best ricky hatton,but a old weak & feeble hatton.
i backed manny in 8,as i believe hatton is gone.
im gutted for him i trully am,his pride has took a kicking tonight,his lifestyle has caught up with him @ last.
salute to ricky 4 having the arsehole1!! 2 mix it with the best @ there best.

Agreed. He's something special and a win over Mayweather would give him the sort of record you rarely see.

I think there;s forum Etiquette about this kind of thread mate....just in case some people are avoiding the result. Normally place the word "Spoiler" in the title and not give it away.

Not that you should really be on a Forum of boxing if you want to avoid a big result tho.

Probably because it was a technical count out.
Fair play to Ricky he has gone to America fought the best, ok he has come up short but he was not afraid to test himself, still one of the best fighters out of Britain this generation

i wanted hatton to stick around for a few more fights win or lose.

but now i want him to retire.

that's how devastating that was. :(

stunner.

sorry but aint versed in internet etique,the fights over!! DD

to be honest if your a boxing fan and have not forked out 15-00 for this then your not really a boxing fan imo.

So if in years to come when people discuss the great philipino along with elorde and villa will they say that hatton was not at the top of his game ?

why have a go at the thread title?

if you want to avoid the result - the last place you come to is a live internet boxing forum

if your that dull to log on here - then you deserve to have the result spoilt for you - for be so fornicating dumb

Pacman is a great fighter but let's put things into context here.

Hatton couldn't have made it easier for him if he'd tried, all that talk of adapting etc was exposed cruelly out there. He sleepwalked onto every single shot out there. On top of this, aside from that last shot which would've dropped a police horse, it's difficult to tell how much of that performance was down to Pacman's power and how much was down to a complete inability of Hatton to take a punch these days.

My feeling is that Hatton's lifestyle and inability to change caught up with him in the most dramatic of fashions out there tonight.

Take nothing away from Pacman but I still think Mayweather would suss out a way to beat him.

You can't maintain a style like that and expect a long career. He hasn't been the same fighter since Collazo. Unfortunatley he can't adapt either. Emotion gets the better of him and he reverts to type. For a guy who's been working on his defense its, sadley, laughable to see him get caught with the same lead right hooks that he's been hit with since Magee. As good as the left was that ended Hattons night, the lead right hooks were the shots that set the tone.

say what they want ;;-)
thats the shittest ive seen him look,he looked no diffrent from the weigh in.
he's had 47 odd fights,that wasnt ricky in there.

Hatton wasn't any different from the Malignaggi fight. Pacquiao's tactics (or rather, Roach & Moorer's) were perfect.

in any big fight situation - when the pressure is on - you revert to type

when Naz got caught - the hands would come down - and he would just have a brawl -

Hatton just reverted to type - regardless of what he done in the gym for 12 weeks
