Hatton was punch drunk since Zoo...
I reckon since Kostya Tszyu, Ricky has been punch drunk. It's not been obvious since probably his last 3-4 fights.
I remember a prime Hatton, excellent chin, and basically walk through any punches with ease. That's taken its toll, like with all boxers...it catches up with you eventually. Post Mayweather fight on interviews Hatton was slurring some of his words, he wasn't drunk.
It's a shame it's come to this, Celebrity and his lifestyle killed his boxing ability.
He lost to the 2 greatest P4P'ers of his era, it's time to call it a day Ricky. If Ricky fights again I'm not watching it, it's not good for boxing or his health.
