    Ricky is coming to America..

    Ray Hatton hoped his boy would follow him onto the soccer pitch. Instead, Ricky Hatton has scored lofty goals as a boxer.

    hmm

    "It's the performance, pleasing the public, and putting [butts] on seats. They're the people that you've got to excite, whether you win or lose, and Ricky will always do that. We'll definitely be over to America next year, there's no ifs, buts, or wherefores. Now that we're in control of our own destiny, we'll do what we've wanted to do for quite some time and come over to America, and we know that they'll just love Ricky's style, win or lose."
    Well how can you not love that quote? If only Calzaghe had half the balls Hatton has. Hatton's gonna do himself a big favor by coming to America. His popularity is going to boom. If he beats Floyd in the U.S., well, I think we all know how huge that would make him. p4p number 1 no questions asked, with millions of fans American and British.

      Hatton has always stated that he must fight in the States and has done so already, he understands that his style is likely to attract the American audience but it wont lead to him having a long career therefore he is willing to travel to fight the best and hopefully beat the best then retire with no questions left unanswered on either side of the pond!

            When BBC reports he's coming, that's when he'll come. Facts are right now finances dictate fighters come to Ricky. Hell, the lowest price Maussa tics go for 175 bucks, if Floyd comes they'll be 200 bucks MINIMUM.

            At any rate, Floyd wants to fight 2nd tier fighters for less money like Roy used to do. Same BS, just new fighter.

              I can see people liking Ricky's style... took me a long time to get used to him, but he's a 3 minute a round high output fighter with first-rate stamina.

                Ricky Hatton is ta man! I like ta fact that tis guy aint scared to come ova to ta U.S.A and try to dominate. I can see him VERY successful at 140lbs. Only Floyd Mayweatha will give him problems. (high possiblity of beating him also.)

                  You know, I'll say something about this Hatton guy... I never really liked him that much (dunno why, he's a nice guy... not my favourite style, maybe?) and I blew about £100 betting against him on most of his last fights. (Except Zoo, where he was underdog for the first time).

                  Every time you think he's not going to win, he does. The pasty little bugger is for real, and it wouldn't actually surprise me if he DID beat Floyd. You could see on Floyd's face even on the Mitchell fight he really doesn't like getting hit back.

                    ya man. RARELY I SEE Floyd get tagged on ta face clean. Wit Ricky's MANY PUNCH outputs he's bound to hit Floyd numerous times. Hatton definitely is ta biggest threat fo Floyd right now.
