Hatton Should Have Pulled Out From Pacquiao Fight?

[Drunk Punch]

For some ****** reason, Hatton (despite all the build up talk of being a born-again boxer) decided to abandon any sort of tactical gameplan and try to walk through Pacman's punches like he did (in his prime) against Tszyu. Had he watched any Pacquiao fights? It was a ****** thing to do and he got the KTFO'd like he deserved.

As a boxer Hatton is many classes below the likes of Mayweather or Pacquiao. He could fight either of them 10 times and he would lose ten times.

anyone who couldnt see this hatton had a snowballs chance in hell is seriously delusional... hatton was made for manny, guy doesnt box he trys to walk through people and that was tailor made for manny

"Pac is a great, great fighter". That is all that should have been said.

Obviously he shoulda pulled out, then he wouldn't have been sleeping in the ring for 10 min. Oh well hindsight is 20/20.

[Tankster]

pulling out of the fight wouldn't have made a difference. Only that Hatton would have been KOed at a different date.

did you manually draw this son? You're one helluva artist.

everyone in here acts as if youd do any better all you can do is talk none of you would even make it as amateurs!!!!! ricky hattons still owns all your loser asses!!!!!!!!!!! takes balls and talent to even get anywhere near that level of comp. living in moms basement living up someone else's vistory is as close as any of you will get!!!!!!

Every fighter in history has an excuse/ reason for why they are beat.

Ricky himself has never made any excuses, time after time he has said he was beaten by the better man in both his defeats.

I think Ricky is a man of exception character, and I'll always be a big fan of his. But I think Silencers is just pointing out that he has excuses or "explanations" even for fights he wins in. Which suggests a trend in his post fight behavior. The hattons are probably just freaking out b/c he got beat so badly it almost looks as though Hatton didn't even belong on the same stage as Pacquiao.
