I gotta be honest here
I thought this was a really easy bet to win from the start.
I know the Brits wanted to get behind their boy, but the confidence they showed in Ricky being victorious made me smile a bit. I thought - not a chance in hell. Floyds a prat but he's a brilliant boxer and was always going to be too slick and classy in my mind.
From now on Ricky is going to need to keep his hands up when he rushes in because I lost count of the amount of times he copped one flush trying to force the face. Future opponents will certainly have noted it.
Having said that there are still some big fights in store for Hatton if he wants them and basically anyone else he fights will be a drop in class from Floyd, so I certainly don't think he should retire.
Stay at 140 & dominate. He has a big payday put away now.
