Ricky Hatton Conflicted About Eight Week Vegas Camp

[FLY TY]

lol different attitudes between pac and hatton... pac willing to sacrifice. hatton hesitant to sacrifice. kinda tells you where these guys mental focus is.

The fact he's gone on record bitching about his training camp tells me that he's going to be in for a beating against Pacquiao.

cosign. not saying you can predict anything about the outcome of the fight from this, but its interesting to see the differing mindsets betw. the two.

fact is, manny seems a lot more committed than hatton. u get paid millions of dollars, in a bad economy to do what you do.....
don't like your job? quit.

Don't underestimate Mayweather Snr. - he's a real disciplinarian, and I'm sure he'll get Hatton's mental attitude right as soon as their training begins.

Worrying over the prospect of missing a few football matches isn't what he should be concerned about.

He has the rest of his life, once he retires to watch all the Manchester City games he wants.

that's 8 weeks of buffet and free beer temptations....

This is right up there wit KT and PBF as one of his biggest career fights, one where he's claimin he'll take the top p4p spot. To hear him bitchin about an 8 wk camp ain't a very good sign.

Hatton will never become P4P king. No way.

I know, I was agreeing with that. But you're missing my point, which was that his attitude's wrong now, but Floyd Snr. will sort his attitude out no problem when they get together.

Hatton seems to have issues with sacrifice. I bet some other boxers read what he says about not being able to leave home and scratch their heads.

If you want to beat the P4P champ, it's going to take some serious sacrifice!

i agree but at the same time certain people need that balance in their lives in order to keep sanity and focus.... i know i'd rather have my fam and my girl around to keep me composed and grounded rather than not being able to be around them and spending time with em

lol well thats why pac travels with 12 pinoys at all times... hatton might be too cheap to do the same

We'll see, hopefully Floyd Sr can bring out the best in Hatton mentally as well as physically.

Being with his friends and family will do him good, it's no good thinking about them all the time whilst training, it defeats the object.

Besides, he's always done it, so screw your necks back in.

The mans got values, one of the biggest regrets in life for a man is not spending enough time with his wife and kids.

Don't worry Ricky, there's Burger King, McDonalds, Pizza Hut and all the Beer you can drink in Vegas too. You'll be fine
