For Hatton to be 5'7 and weighing that much shows how little discipline he must have. I really don't believe it for a second that a guy going up to 210 lets 7 pounds of muscle slow him down. Are you telling me that he puts on 70 pounds of fat between fights? Then sheds it so easily that he has trouble keeping weight on? Its a medical miracle.
    I'm telling you that he weighed 210 in Jan '05. He was almost unrecognisable. He doesn't usually go up that high though, usually only 180-190.

    He didn't train at all until 8-10 weeks before fights, so obviously it's all fat.

      I've heard he gets pretty heavy, which I believe. But I HIGHLY doubt that he had trouble getting UP to a good weight. I believe I saw a video of him before one of his fights about how hard he has to train to get down to 140. Maybe you're joking when you say he had trouble getting up to 140 and 147, but I can't take you seriously if you're not.

        He had trouble keeping weight on during the Tszyu camp according to Kerry Kayes, his nutritionist and conditionist.

        It was a 12-week camp and he was training harder than ever, dieting stricter than ever. FWIW.

          Using the fact that he is very undisciplined as an excuse is as weak as it gets. So, when Ricky loses, it's not his fault, but the fact he puts on a ton of weight in between....who makes Ricky drink?

            He won't lose if he stays at 140.

            And where have I used his lack of discipline as an excuse?

            Ricky makes himself drink - he's a genuine guy. He's only ever really been in boxing to entertain fans first and foremost, and never expected to still be in boxing by '05.

              Please, if you actually believe that he didn't expect to be boxing for more than 5 years, you need to take your head out of your ass. that's utter bull**** and you know it.

              Mayweather will box around him at 140 or 147.

                Yep, however the difference is that no one here claims that Gatti was PBF's best opponent just PBF's most publicly known opponent.

                Tzu is claimed as Hattons best win.

                See the difference?

                  I've got a quid that says he doesn't see the difference.

                    Yeah, cos you're a real bright boy, ain'tcha?

                    It's funny, your sig says I'm the one that posts off topic, yet you come in here solely to flame me. Weird.

                    You ARE tedious though... you're completely generic, just A.N.Other poster. Even your flames are bog standard and unoriginal. Your contributions to this website consist of telling people that they're "crying" or "nuthuggers". You're a total ****splash and a bigot to boot.

                      I mean, FFS, "obsessed"? You bore me, little boy moron. This is the SECOND time this week you've joined a thread just to flame me, and you haven't ONCE said something that's original. Come back when you've got a ****ing clue.
