Hatton v. Senchenko: Will Ricky go to pieces if he loses again?

Sounds like a quiet weekend to me. Damn, you're in deeper denial than Hatton was

He did coke, got caught cheating on his girlfriend and got knocked out in a bar fight. Yeah he was doing just fine. :lol1: Sounds like a quiet weekend to me.

He never went to pieces in the first place. He did coke, got caught cheating on his girlfriend and got knocked out in a bar fight. Yeah he was doing just fine. :lol1:

Yea.... sure he didn't He went to rehab the same reason Demi Lavato did I dont know who that is?

So nEarly slashing his own wrists with a kitchen knife is being in.pieces mentally no? #half wit Well only to the "no wits" that actually believe in that fairly tale

If he gets stopped by Senchenko he'd have to be put on suicide watch and I'm serious.

A one-sided loss would force Ricky over the edge. I close decision loss and he would be hurt but attribute it to rust. I think Ricky should stay away from the ring, he isn't going to be 50% of what he was.

I would def go to pieces if i lost to a guy who got KO'd by Paulie If it happenS he should just disappear off the face of the earth not even allowed a public announcement about retiring he should just be gone with missing persons list

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...

If he loses to a person like Senchenko..... probably True if,boxers like maligwanka are beating overrated generic European paper champs eg senchenko then hatton should win but what do you reckon about the fight being possiblly staged as a confidence builder in prep for a world title shot rematch against maligmaggi

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. Yeah losing the weight slowly will have helped but after 3 years even heavy sparring won't shake off ring rust that quick he is mentally ready but is his chin suspect enough to start causing problems In the fight I think he will dishearten

If he loses to a person like Senchenko..... probably
