    NSB, why do you consider Ricky Hatton a bum?

    Bums don’t knock out Castillo.

    Bums don’t get stoppage wins over Kostya Tszyu.

    So…why do you call him a bum in hindsight?

      He has never fought at 140, he fights at 152 and weighs in at 140, your comment has a gaping hole in it, and I know why lol.

        Exactly this. He looked like shlt against collazo. Some would argue he got a gift at his only fight at 147. Which is why froid wanted to fight him at that weight class

          Floyd fought at 154 the fight before vs ODLH and come back DOWN TO 147 to face Hatton. Everyone knows coming back down in weight is harder than moving up you dummy

                Surely only American edgelords refer to him as a bum. I followed his career from the beginning, the protracted WBU reign was frustrating but he did beat Tszyu and had some other nice wins after that. He probably over achieved relative to his skill, a nice career. I wish he'd fought Witter after the Mayweather loss.

                  he's a hometown fighter in the mold of andre ward. he has to fight with a hometown ref to allow him excessive clinching and low blows.


                  ref didn't allow him to hold/clinch, so he had to box in vegas and got badly beat by Pac and Mayweather.

                    You should read Hattons book , he is the one that wanted 147 so he could keep his 140 title, he weighed 152 beating Kostya , he weighed 153 with Floyd, he weighed 159 with Collazo and said he would never fight at that weight again as he felt so sluggish, and he didnt.

                    If you gotta hate try and get some facts into your story.
