RICKY HATTON: "I can't stop crying."

[Ray*]

I hope he doesnt do a Naz, Retire after one or two more fight..That would be so funny..

i think Hatton's mom is hot

You must be blind!!!

I hope he can comeback from the schooling/Beating that he took, Naz quit after one more fight with 70 million pounds in the bank hope hatton doesnt do the same.

I got the same feeling after Hatton lost, but I hope it doesn't effect him like some other fighters have been. It's a shame seeing someone just drop off.

I just hope the same thing doesn't happen to him as what happened to Lacy

This was nothing like the Lacy fight. Lacy was beaten like a red-headed stepchild from the first round. He literally had no success at any point with anything he did and this was the favourite for the fight. With Hatton there were a number of mitigating circumstances that give him a reason to keep on believing in himself. He knows he had success early on, he knows he lost focus and there's a marked change in his behaviour after he was deducted a point in what he saw as unfair circumstances.

As I've said previously some people are in the process of rewriting history and marking the fight as wholly one sided, when it clearly wasn't. At no point was Floyd truly dominant until the seventh round, and he didn't seriously affect Hatton apart from in the eighth and the tenth. He didn't "break Hatton down physically and mentally", Hatton got angry and got tagged with many clean counters as a result.

If Hatton had stuck to his gameplan although it may not have led to victory, it would certainly have been a contentious decision and I think Ricky knows that better than anyone.

Hatton was broken down worst than Barrera's victory over Naz but some people would have you believe that Naz was beaten to a bloodied pulp, Hatton charging without landing anything early on doesnt indicate how well he fought...I believe he was schooled worst that Naz and KTFO.

Bless him, he really thought he was going to win

No he wasn't. Utter garbage. Hatton had success early and when he regained his head a little in the tenth he had some success there too, but he walked into a beautiful hook and Floyd finished as the pound for pound number one should. It's OK to say that FLoyd was the better fighter without having to embellish his achievement. Be realistic.

Of course in your case you are the classic self hating brit who has to stand in opposition to your countrymen to give yourself a sense of superiority. You're the kind of guy who turns up to the pub wearing a Portugal shirt.
