RICKY HATTON: "I can't stop crying."

[Lucky13]

Give it up already, Floyd fans are just as annoying as the British fans, although British fans express themselves with more class and entertainment.

Poor dude, I feel bad for him.
He put the weight of his country on his shoulders.
He has nothing to be ashamed of though, he went 100%, and lost to the better fighter.
I wish him luck in the future.

its obvious hatton and graham did a nice acting job before teh fight
on the night of the f ight you could tell they came only for the pay day
instead of fighting
hatton already started crying in the ring
complaining about this and that instead of fighting ... hardly a warrior
at least he got paid
after the fight graham goes oh we knew he was too small
hatton is an insult to true warriors of the ring
hatton was not facing no mcclelland puincher type
watch nigel benn vs mcclelland
nigel benn is a true warrior

Good for you.

And you're an insult to semi-literate ass-jabbers around the world.

Remember what Roger said: "You breaking that hoe down"...well, Floyd broke him down mentally and physically, making him bleed, popping his cherry in front of the world, in front of his family. He felt exposed in front of millions.

That's a part of it. Probably a big part.

Hatton was more than beaten. He was undressed. Exposed. Thoroughly.

Hatton and Graham figured that they could be outboxed, outran, outjabbed. They were shellshocked that Floyd ran THROUGH him. Take away the knockout - what would the rest of the tenth round and the 11th round look like?

With all the talk that Floyd was underestimating Ricky, they underestimated Floyd. How is that possible?

This was nothing like the Lacy fight. Lacy was beaten like a red-headed stepchild from the first round. He literally had no success at any point with anything he did and this was the favourite for the fight. With Hatton there were a number of mitigating circumstances that give him a reason to keep on believing in himself. He knows he had success early on, he knows he lost focus and there's a marked change in his behaviour after he was deducted a point in what he saw as unfair circumstances.

As I've said previously some people are in the process of rewriting history and marking the fight as wholly one sided, when it clearly wasn't. At no point was Floyd truly dominant until the seventh round, and he didn't seriously affect Hatton apart from in the eighth and the tenth. He didn't "break Hatton down physically and mentally", Hatton got angry and got tagged with many clean counters as a result.

If Hatton had stuck to his gameplan although it may not have led to victory, it would certainly have been a contentious decision and I think Ricky knows that better than anyone.

Most of that revisionist history can be found in your post, Ned.

The fight played out EXACTLY how Floyd said it would. And then Floyd did EXACTLY what he said he would. How is that not dominant?

Once Fighters fight MaYweather they are never THE SAME EVER..!!!

Mentally and Physically...

Hatton will not win another FIGHT against an TOP Opponent....he is Threw..


This Lose will **** with him for the rest of his life....

He said it himself that, "you cant lost to a guy like Mayweather you just can't.."

and what did he do..

He lost, and not only lost but got KO'ed...


Hatton is a DONE...

Exposed as what exactly?

Yeah all that booing and excuse making was classy as can be.
