I know alot of people have compared him to ricky Hatton,etc but when ive watched the guy he looks more technical than Hatton.Hatton used to just swarm all over his opponents not giving them time breath and unloading hooks to the body and head and also alot of uppercuts.Heffron looks to be more of a thinker to me about what he's doing but also throws a cracking left hook to the body.Whats everyone think?

Good prospect - good pro style.
Would liike to see some of his spars with Frankie Gavin - (or Gavin v Hall for that matter) come on Arnie - upload some to youtube!

Was lucky enough to see a few rounds of him sparring before his last fight and he looked superb. He's such an exciting fighter to watch.
I'd give Hatton a lot more credit than that Lefty as he used to use a lot of different tricks to work his way inside and open up his opponents, rather than just jump on them but yes, Heffron seems to have a great variety to his work. I think he'll be similar to Hatton in being relentless, aggressive and with that fighting spirit that brought so many great fights. Early days of course but he's in the right gym and with the right trainer to be brought on nicely.

He has the sort of name that just screams "journeyman" to me... lol!
Taking part in his 104th professional contest, with 11 wins, from Birmingham.. Ronnie Hefron.
Just joking- it's not a slur on his ability.
