de la hoya recommended him and now he is leaving with a broken rib.

This is good news. Ricky Hatton is as entertaining as any boxer on earth when he's in top shape. Against Urango, his strength seemed depleted, and I think it was partly because he lost muscle and strength when he crash-dieted before the fight (and partly because he had a chest infection). Hopefully he's learned from that, it sounds like he's stayed in good shape this time. I can hardly wait until June 23!

Looks like hatton is going to be in top form for this fight, wouldnt wannabe reyes tommorow morning, broken rips. Gotta a feeling hes gonna be back to his best for this one, as much as i like castillo, nothing stands in the way of Hatton at his best at 140. Hope so b4 Maussa Hatton was my favourite fighter by a mile, after being ripped off for ppv vs Urango he better come back!

RICKY Hatton has the "tingle" back and he proved it by sending his last sparring partner to hospital! The Hyde Hitman flew out to Las Vegas yesterday to begin the countdown to his June 23 fight with Jose Luis Castillo, and said that the prospect of facing such a big name has restored the buzz.

Anyone wanna bet some points

?

what the hell do you mean by after being ripped off for ppv vs urango?

He's the most powerful body puncher I've seen in my lifetime, nothing compares when he sets his feet right - he doesn't even have to hit you under the floating rib, he can hit you anywhere because the leverage he gets is so good, when his feet are in the right position

Did he hug him to death and broke the guys rib? I can see this happening,really!
