    got to feel for the bloke he genuinley loved what he did and found it very very hard to get over that fight which contributed to his downfall im glad to see him in better shape mentally now and hopefully he will have a long succsesful career as a promoter.

    He was never the same after Mayweather.

    Ricky was being beaten up in sparring prior to the Pac fight, he knew he was going to lose

    It is true that he was getting knocked about in sparring prior to the fight.

    Anyone giving the predictable abuse to hatton on this thread should actually read the article before getting straight on to the comedy act.
