He wants you to pay $100 to have your name printed in a programme, man of the people or what? .

Does anyone else think his man of the people spiel doesn't wash anymore?. These days it is brand Hatton and how much he can line his pockets with.

This isn't just a one off though apparently he did this for the Mayweather fight too and i remember before the Lazcano fight he wanted to charge people £200 to have their names printed on his shorts, which got laughed off his own forum for being such a shameful money making scam.

Now the supposed man of the people has his own clothing line . He keeps ****ing on about how much of a man of the people he is (literally every interview) when he hangs around with all sorts of celebrities and bleeds his fans dry.

Another one of his money making scams was for the Mayweather fight, Both him and Floyd got allocated 4000 tickets, Floyd passed these on at the standard price and Punch Promotions through sheer greed added on a 10% mark up on the tickets for the UK fans, some man of the people.

Yet another one, he charged fans £100 for the afterfight party in Manchester after the Lazcano fight. For this £100 you got to stand in a tent in a carpark while Hatton was in a seperate building and never even visited the official afterparty.

How many "men of the people" do you know that talk in the 3rd person?. Ricky 'Atton is just a man of the people ripping of his fans constantly init?. How deluded is he and how far has he drifted from reality that he is actually convinced he will be pound for pound number 1 if he beats Pacquiao. How many "men of the people" do you know that actually think of themselves as the most exciting fighter on the planet when he fights like **** and hugs and holds?.

You only have to read his autobiography (2005) to see just how big of a hypocrite he has become).

As a former Hatton fan, i hope Pacquaio smashed him to pieces .

Another hate thread against Hatton.

He's one of this decade's top fighters, and has helped keep boxing alive at a time when it's popularity has been in decline.

He's far from being a fraud.

As soon as you have 250K you are no Longer a man of the people.. What I find interesting is that you are only discovering that now..

When people become celebrities.. well they become celebrities .. and that is always about making SUCKERS like you and me pay outrageous prices for things we dont need..We spend.. they make..

[MANGLER]

How is he a fraud? He markets himself as what he is for the most part.

Did you even read the post?. I'm talking about his greedy money-making exploits not his boxing career.

Nah i'm not just discovering it now , just kind of sad how he has changed but is that deluded he can still keep up this man of the people facade.

Grade A thinking man. I'm glad you see past the facade.

Didn't you used to be all over Hatton's nuts ?

[big paulie]

He's a sraight up ****, ugly one at that. ****ing glorified clubfighter

[Patty Tanager]

Didn't you used to be all over Hatton's nuts ?

That is correct. As a child growing up i idolised watching Hatton and have seen every single fight of his and been to 3 of his fights in person. I even gave him the benefit of the doubt for a while, but it's just getting out of hand lately. Since he has left Frank Warren or even since he went to America he has changed.

[T-97]

I still like Hatton as a boxer, but haven't liked him much as a personality since the Mayweather fight. My favourite was the Lazcano fight was "One for the fans"....on PPV :S
