Hatton is a champion who will be missed

[revs1227]

Yeh he will be missed but others will fill the gap...

thats a veryyy big gap 2 fill my friend ..no one els is bringing 20-30k ppl overseas 2 help boost our economy like riky no one ..ever ! i was at the fight and could not believe my eyes this man is a legend based on his draw alone i can guarantee ill never see somthin like that or be at an event like that again not without hatton ..i had the time of my life thnx 2 the hitman

He's nothing like Khan, Khan has had hype and support from day one whereas Hattons gone from fighting infront of 10 fans to taking 25,000 to America and how did he do it? By winning fights and climbing the ladder.

He's hyped because he beat some of the best, Khans hyped because of the olympics and he's a cash cow.

In 3years time i won't be suprised to see all 2008 british olympians with perfect records...and they'll get hyped again.

He was a good fighter, but i doubt he would be so popular if it wasn't for the fact he was a big man city fan.

Yep, there won't be no-one to fill rickys gap for a looooooong time.

No british fighter, even if they go undeafted and win world titles at 6 classes will take anywhere near 25k to america.

i think that ricky hatton is going to do good as a promoter

[Chunk..]

Hatton's a one off in terms of fan appeal.

[TheDukeArrives]

How is he a hype machine? He won world titles ffs, people like Khan is a hype machine. Not someone who worked himself up from nothing to winning a world title and beating one of the p4p kings.

This is the view of you from ricky's nuts;
