Does anyone else notice any SIMILARITIES????LOL. Drugs & alcohol aren't the only things Ricky needs therapy for....deep down the man wants to shag his mum!!! lol
He brought his own freakin band to fights and weigh-ins, had his own chants ("Hatton Wonderland"), finally made a winner out of Manchester City footie fans who bestowed Blue Moon upon him for his own entrance song which is about as big as it gets (imagine Michigan fans filling half the arena singing "The Victors" at Floyd fights), and had as many as 15k-20k UK fans travel all across way to US for his big fights and boosted the Vegas economy where some top end fighters can't even sell 1000 tickets at an indian casino in bum**** nowhere.
His hardcore fans were not internet keyboard warriors who stream free fights, they paid with their damn wallets and were truly organized rather than posers playing fake "mafia" on a website. That grassroots support where your blue collar working class fans PAY hard earned vacation money to see you fight is truly gansta. Boxing will not see that unique support for a LONG time, and it will take something equally as UNIQUE to compare. He injected soccor mob style fandom which was GOOD for the sport of boxing.
Hard way to go out. His whole schtick was he was one of boys, and basically he got clocked, and got clocked quick, and ugly, and his own trainer bailed on him where he was left alone in ring and he walked back to dressing room with no fanfare. Maybe he got a little too big, and set himself up for some of this, but this cat didn't want to do that to his fans.
His regrets may have nothing to do with being knocked out
cold, but the way he trained and planned his attack/defense.
His fight with Pacman was a mere brutal display of carelessness.
Actually, this might be the reason he got more depressed. He trained earlier than Pac and earlier than his other fights, looked good and in shape in the process, has FMJ Sr in his corner. You could tell he was very confident with comments like, "bet your house on me" and "I'll never disappoint". Then he gets blown out in two. That's gonna be pretty depressing if it happened to me.

What about the loss against Mayweather didn't that contribute to Hatton's depression?......but no one will give Mayweather credit because he is black, black like a mother****er........
oh my. hatton blame the pac lost not floyd.
now if you guys would make u feel better that floyd is the reason that hatton get depressed, so be it.
Dont believe this rubbish.Hatton knew he wasnt invincible that's why he avoided certain fighters,he had been knocked out by Mayweather already and Lazcano nearly knocked him out.Seems like a sympathy card to me.Hatton has always drunk like the drunk he is,only reason he probably wasnt taking ******* was because he was scared of the urine tests.Once he knew he had retired there was no fear and he became himself.
hahahaha hatton;s depression was caused by many british who sold their house to bet on him. a lot of british became homeless after hatton's lost.
why is hatton relevant. he got destroyed and embarrassed in the ring. now he is destroyed and embarrassed with drugs and alcohol outside the ring. lost his boxing license he is yesterdays trash throw him away. society did?
