Hatton v. Senchenko: Will Ricky go to pieces if he loses again?
Collapse
-
From his interviews lately it seems that boxing is a sort of redemption for him in terms of sorting his demons out, losing weight, getting into a routine and filling a void in his life again. He has spoke about how even if he lost, he's already won the fight in his life. If he can stick to those principles and this comeback is a catalyst for a better lifestyle, then I can't see why he would fall apart as he seems to have a good network of people around him.
On the flipside, he seemed to be one of the guys who had a focus after boxing, with his promotional company etc and not even that could prevent his well-acknowledged troubles. Once he retires again or loses, that void will be there again, feeling how he's let everybody down and having to make up for it. I just hope Ricky realises that despite what he thinks, there was no shame in losing to Pac and May and even if he gets beat in his comeback by somebody inferior to them, it doesn't detract from the fact that he was (and still is?) a top operator who just fell short against the elite.

Problem with athletes at world level, they have great highs, but low lows. A normal person like us may be happy wit a bonus at work, or a great GF, but him, a world champ etc... to a Highlight KO reel...
