    Hatton's book...

    This guy is cool.

    Just finished reading the Hitman's book.

    There is some interesting stories in there on Danny Williams, Joe Calzaghe and Frank Warren. He hints that Amir Khan will fail as a pro and has a new-found respect for Chris Eubank calling boxing a "mugs game".


    Check back later. I'll post some extracts.

    See ya.

    Didn't know he had a book out. Definately a cool guy, but no longer ranks among my favorites. His personality is still there, but I didn't become a fan to see him fight Collazo and Urango. I'm not even sure he can beat Urango. Urango has a solid chin, and constantly moves forward throwing consistent, clean punches. The judges love his style.

    What else is the book about?

      I had a flick through that for the Warren bits, I didn't realise he talked about Danny "Humdilla" Williams

          lol, Hatton will K.O Urango in a couple of rounds..if not by chin but by the body. Then watch him own Castillo afterwards

            Is it worth a buy Geoff? I've been tempted to buy it a few times, but I thought maybe it would be a bit **** like all the other autobiographies are coming out.

              i tend to read most boxing books, especially autobigraphys... the best is muhammed ali's (it has a yellow cover), its a fantastic read - couldnt put it down!

              by far the worst is amir khans.. read it in about 2 hours - the punctuation was poor, sentences had no structure, crap story... all round poor piece of work, but did have some funny pictures of a young buck tooth amir hahaha!

              gona buy hattons book this weekend, read it and give it to my dad for christmas hahahaha!
