    Maybe he means Hatton has a talent that he has not been recognized for.

        2 Ricky Hattons?

        There's 84 in the phone book in the us alone.

        At any rate, I think it's a comment that he can box better than he shows at times and is quicker when he wants to be than people think.
        He just doesn't show it in all of his fights (Laczcano)

        That would be my guess.

          If Ricky can effectively box and effectively brawl then there are two different styles he can use to dominate an opponent. This means that there are two different Ricky Hattons you might see on a particular night, Ricky Hatton the boxer and Ricky Hatton the brawler.

            That in this case, there's more than just "oooooonnne ricky hatton". There's Hatton the boxer and Hatton the brawler.

            I've seen Hatton box decently in his career (Tackie, Urango). He'll never be a real top boxer like a Mayweather/Hearns, but maybe he can tweak his game and increase his longevity.

              He was trying to be funny. Apparently it didn't work.

                His boxing skills have always been underrated. He can do more than just brawl, he is quite intelligent when he wants to be.

                    It's a play on, "theres only oooooone Ricky Hatton."

                    I laughed. Larry is a legend.
