[King Ju-Ju]

Great news!!! Keep your fat ass out of the ring.

hatton shouldn't come back.

British boxing superstar Ricky Hatton told reporters the "fire in the belly" is still missing when it comes to fighting again. Hatton will not return to the ring unless the fire in the belly is there. Hatton is putting all of his focus on his promotional company. The Manchester star has been busy in Sheffield with several signings of local talent to his Hatton Promotions stable. He signed 6'8 heavyweight Richard Towers (7-0, 5KOs) from South Yorkshire.

He may not have the fire in his belly anymore. I know why. He is dousing that fire in his belly with too much lager.

Hatton retires to focus on eating. The once world champion no longer has the "fire in his belly". He has replaced this fire with double cheeseburgers, pizzas, beer, soda, and any other various foods he can get his hands on. Hatton has blown up so much in weight, he looks as if he's eaten Pacquiao (the fighter who dominated him and made him look like a British scrub the caliber of an Amir Khan. When asked if he thought he could compete against Pac or Floyd in rematches, Hatton angrily snapped "I'll eat those 2 lil buggers for dinner, bah!"

I hope Hatton loses some weight. I hate seeing this guy fat for some reason.

Hatton earned his chance to be in the ring with the two best guys in the world, I think he deserves his picture on a Boxing website.


Same goes for Calzaghe and De La Hoya, they done their bit for the sport and there is no reason why Boxingscene's owners should not have their picture up, they own the site and can do what they like

What you say about them guys is just your opinion and opinions are like arse holes, everybody has got one !

I suppose you're right. And everything you said is just YOUR opinion as well. I just don't think retired and overrated boxers should headline a boxing page. But, again, that's just my opinion.

żFire in the belly?..The only thing Hatton is feeling in his belly is all the blubber he's been accumulating for a while now...He's living up to his Ricky FATTON name! & After the extremely hard KO Pacriod gave him, it's for sure that fire was extinguished for ever, so he ain't gonna come back!...

no matter what any joker on hear says hatton was one of the best light welters of the last 20 years beat by the two best fighters of the decade any weight beat everyone else included legenadry kost tyszu and such a nice guy aswel wannnkers on hear need to ****in geta grip

[English puncher]

He's fat as hell now anyway, I doubt that he could get back down to 147 let alone 140. And if he does he would be totally drained and not prepared to fight.

Another thing I never understood is why boxingscene has his picture at the top of the page, he's was way overrated. And Calzaghe and De La Hoya should come down too because they are both retired.

over-rated? how do you work that out! he fought the best, never ducked anybody, and was in some wars over the years....he has earned his pic up at the top of the page, although they do need to change the mugshots now, its been the same for too long

Smart move by Hatton.
