Hatton Believes He Overtrained For Pacquiao Bout

[Roger Mellie]

I am a Hatton fan, but even if he had the best,smoothest training camp in the history of the universe, and was even allowed to use steroids....No way on gods earth would the outcome have been any different.

Very well said. Being a Mancunian, He's pretty much been my hero for the past few years. I actually wouldn't be surprised if his training camp was ****e, to be honest. I'm no fan of Floyd Sr. and have serious reservations about his dedication. That being said, there was no way he was going to win, not in a million years.

Whether he overtrained or not, nothing was gonna stop hatton from getting KTFO with his crappy defence that night

Ricky Hatton has yet to make a decision on the future of his career but the training camp for his May loss to Manny Pacquiao is still weighing heavy on his mind. Hatton was stopped in two rounds by the crushing punches of the pound-for-pound king. There were rumors of training camp trouble even prior to the fight, with co-trainers Floyd Mayweather Sr. and Lee Beard at odds with each other. Hatton felt that he overtrained and that makes him want to return to the ring to prove himself right. [details]

NOW excuses will be coming

I was overtrained...my trainers are fighting...what else?

Yep........

yeah he probably did overtrain because of the Mayweather loss but he also underestimated Pac, he walked right onto that punch and it would have knocked out almost anyone out there, he was hit flush by a massive punch, i think it could be a diffrent outcome had he have met PAC before th mayweather fight had happend, i hope Hatton comes back and gets a few big wins under his belt, he may not be p4p best in the world but he is stil up there head and shoulders above most.

[lest26]

lol and the ppl who think training has nothing to do with it must be walking with there head in the clouds, training is everything in boxing, get it wrong and pay the price, fail to prepare prepare to fail

C'mon Hatton, stop making excuses.

It makes him look a bit ****** really.
