    can I just ask you, how many ricky Hatton fights have you actually been to. Have you ever seen him fight in manchester or did you go to the usa because most of the people who did will be watching it live 2moro evening at the city of Manchester stadium and will have payed between 25 and 50 pound for a great nights boxing ( considering it's 75 pound to watch **** bands these days thats a bargain ).

    Now Hatton is saying thank you to the people who have supported him along the way, not arm chair boxing fans

          I don't know where you go to gigs.

          Having this fight on PPV is two fingers up to those of us who have followed his career for years.

            Armchair boxing fans are still fans all the same... not everyone has the money to go out and see boxing a lot, if at all.

              I like my pints watered down, that's why you pay extra for the evian.

              And you can stick up for Ricky all you want but i this **** ''fight for the fans'' stuff is a bit of a sham.

                Ricky should have just said 'This fight is for Manchester'

                or something like that. Make no mistake he is ****ing over the rest of us.

                  And what makes me laugh is you get all the overprotected Mancunians here on here trying to make us believe that Ricky is doing this for the fans, when really he's doing it for Manchester and giving his other fans who are scattered all over across the country **** all chance of seeing it, so the only alternative is to stay in and pay £15.

                  Thanks Ricky.

                    I think it was about actually going though, in that sense a thank you.

                      Have to say that's utter bollocks, since when is he holding a gun to your head forcing you to pay? Chances are if you're a fan you'd pay but if not then you wouldn't bother,
