Major rumour.

I won't beat about the bush, but I don't know if Hard Hitters is winding up - but apparently, there are some noises that Hatton has cut his eye and the fight is off! Rescheduled for Feb/March is what Hard hitters is reporting.

It is merely a rumour, or maybe a windup.

How would he have cut his eye? He must have finished all his sparring by now?

You would have thought so, plus he'd be wearing a bloody headguard, so how would he get a cut eye, unless it wasn't sustained during sparring.

I'm sure HH won't mind, but this is what he wrote on boxingaddicts.

Someone has just told me Hatton cut his eye in sparring and the fight is off untill feb/mar!!

Please tell me this is not true!

HH

I don't know any more than this - I think its a wind up, but one can never be sure. Look at Witter, he injured his hand last week on the news got round this week. Perhaps the cut happend early in the week, as Julio Ceasar Chavez will vouch (vs DLH) better to be safe than sorry concerning sparring cuts.

My feeling is that this is balls! (he says with both fingers, toes and eyes crossed!)

This rumour is BULLSHIT.

I just got an email from Richard Maynard changing the time for the weigh in, so I think we can lay this one to rest.

Richard Maynard - thank you. You are a bloody good bloke.

However, there is no smoke without fire, and I'm sure HH would have been senisble enough not to post on 3 forums if his source wasn't accurate.

Now, I'm not saying the fight is off, but I do wander if Hatton has got some scar tissue - mmm Mick might by a busy boy, and I might be making a trip to Coral's.

My mate has just emailed after i told him about the Richard Maynard email to James and he is basically insisting that something has happened and the fight is off!

Can anyone find out for sure?

If he is wrong but is genuine i dont mind but if he is winding me up i will ring his bloody neck for him!!

I didnt want to alarm anyone but thought someone might be able to find out for sure!

It's just there's someone who posts on another forum who seemed to post at the same time you did with the same info, but they might just have read it here.

It's okay my "info" was bogus. I was trying to take the piss out of all this my mate/his mate/your mate stuff.

If I post on another board it's only ever as Kilburn.

I have only just got home from a half day hence im just posting...

I only posted this because my friend insisted he wasnt winding me up and it was def true....

He has since admitted it was a wind up and found it hilarious that I had posted it on three forums...

If i didnt believe him i would hardly post on our site!!

I truly believed him and wouldnt give out bum information like a dickhead in fact i only wanted someone to try to find out and verify the info....

I have actually been banned from ESB im gathering it for this which to me is fornicating pathetic....

Couldnt really give two fucks...

Hope you lot believe that i wasnt being a pudendum i was genuinley trying to find out if it was true...

HH - I don't believe you were being a pudendum, but it's a lesson learnt eh.

Too true....but at the end of the day i was only asking people to confirm what i had been told and there is no real harm in that....

What i will say is i never intended to bullshit or mislead but if people dont believe that then fornicate em...

By the way my mate is now dead...... :D
