Ricky Hatton- What other name in the sport is synonamis with bone crushing body shots, relentless assaults, and devestating Knockouts in the sport today. Where Technicians are revered by the herd mentality masses, and antics outside the ring are more entertaining than those of the fighters in the ring, Ricky Hatton brings a touch of class and a workman like attitude back for the true fans of the sport that sorely miss the days when warriors battled for supremacy and pretenders hid in the shadows. Ricky Hatton is a warriors from days gone by. A fighter that true fans can look up to and be proud of. The kind of guy that trains hard and fights even harder. The kind of guy that has a pint or five, and goes home to sleep it off. A man of the people who doesn't need to flaunt his money to impress his fans. He fights and he wins, and his fans love him for it.
He is the kind of man that is solid in his convictions and goes about his life in a considerate and compassionate way. To put it simply, Ricky hatton is alot like most guys just trying to do the right thing in a sport dominated by thugs that put more emphasis on "bling" and "show me the money".
He is the savior of boxing. That is why many boxing fans travel thousands of miles to watch him live. Those fans do so because of Ricky hatton the person, Not Ricky Hatton the Boxer. I think Many of todays stars could learn a thing or two from Ricky Hatton. A man who doesn't need an enterouge to hype his entrance, everyone in the arena knows hatton is the kind of man that walks alone and doesn't need the backup to get the job done.
The Hitman deserves all the credit in the world for his accomplishments in the ring, but more importantly, Hatton deserves major credit for the way he represents the sport that has given him so much.
I take my hat off to Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton 43-0-0(31)
Soon to be the number one p4p Champion of the world. A Title in need of a man worthy of the post!
