So i'm a Hatton fan; and Pacquiao's my hero of course, but that was fcukin crazy what Pacquiao did. I knew "Ninong" was gonna get him, but i didn't think it was gonna be that bad. I thought that he'd knock him out in the 8th or something like that...you know how he always does it.

Anways, but speaking of Hatton. He was super ready for that fight. He looked trimmed, fit and ready to fight. Jr. Welterweight is HIS division ya know? He owns it, and Pacquiao just took it from him. But this fight won't discourage me from being a Hatton fan though. In fact, i hope he doesn't retire. I can only guess what's going on in his head right now. All fighters want to be considered elite, and Hatton is almost there. To some he might be considered elite, but i don't know what the critics would say.

I felt bad for Hatton, cus of the circumstances. But i'm still a fan no doubt. "There's only one Ricky Hatton!!" That's fo Sho, but Pacquiao is...well...."Ninong"

good job. you're not a bandwagoner

Glad somebody said this instead of attackin Hatton. Dude should get some props.

Nice post dude! Green K for you man,
hatton should hold his head up high he was beating by one of the best!
I think it is time to call it a day though he wants to roll with the big dogs but he cant unforunately,
which is a shame because hes a nice guy and a hard worker!

Props and much love to the hitman

right on guys. i was rooting for Ricky, but Pac reminded me that there are just some fighters on a whole other level. Floyd, Juan Manuel, Manny... all incredible. Ricky's not anywhere near Pac's ability, but then again, not too many are. no shame to have lossed to one of the best. it was an exciting fight. thanks.

Hatton was KO'd by both number 1 Pound for Pound fighters, Floyd and Pac, that is nothing to be ashamed of, maybe the manner that both were very embarassing KO's, but hopefully Hatton will actually take advantage of this loss and consider it a reason to get rid of that wreckless style. When he faught Malignaggi, he boxed him. We thought that was the new Ricky, but it was obvious we saw the old Ricky last night, I'm not even sure we can call that Old Ricky. Some may see this as an opportunity to retire, I look at this as a reason he should rejuvinate his career by dropping that pub brawler style. But big ups to Pacquiao and Roach, Roach turned Manny into a complete fighter by finding new tools for Manny to use. That short right hook was masterful during this fight. If Floyd decides to stick with Ricky, I suggest they use this as alearning experience and try to have the same approach Freddie had with Manny. Yes, I'm still a Hatton fan.

I don't give Hatton props for gettin KTFO last night. He didn't follow any part of his gameplan. Career wise he gets props but last night was pathetic. He looked really amateurish out there...

I'm still a Hatton fan and will continue to be one.
