    any sympathy for Ricky

    any sympathy for Ricky ? i personally feel gutted for him i really do as i did for Kessler although i wanted Joe to beat him ,i felt bad for Jermain Taylor aswell

    the hatred towards Taylor & Hatton has been very strong IMO Kessler has been called a Robot i think these guys deserve more respect for there very brave showings okay they lost but niether of them laid down

    Hatton didn't lay down, I'll give him that much credit.




    He got knocked the **** down by a steel ring post.

      unlike everybody else at the party I was at, I felt nothing for Hatton when he went down. he's a good enough personality but the fact that he ducked Mayweather for two years lingered in the back of my head. I saw that fight as Hatton cashing out and nothing more. I was happy to see him get demolished and even happier to find out the judges weren't falling for his bull**** holding and hitting. he wasn't winning rounds LEGALLY and he wasn't scoring any effective punches. he got diced plain and simple and I'm damn glad about that because to me, he was a coward cashing out. and I'll never see it differently.

          No sympathy because he knew there had to be a winner and a loser. I feel he fought his heart out and showed he is a good fighter, he deserves some credit for fighting hard and making Floyd work for his victory.

              Do you have any idea how much more money Hatton made fighting Floyd now, as opposed to 2 years ago?

              Floyd will do the same if he chooses to fight Cotto, wait enough time until the demand is great enough and Cotto gets another big win or two under his belt.

                Good post, virtually every fighter needs the respect they deserve. It's unbelievably hard to become a world champ, it's not that hard to criticize the world champ.

                    Ricky's tactics made me hope for a KO. When it came, I was outta my seat, hollering. But after they cut to a shot of him getting up, I felt for the guy.

                    I felt horrible after Taylor lost for some reason. And I bet against him. Even openly bashed him on here. It was the worst when he was in the locker room with Merchant.
