    I'm not getting hung up on it at all. It's just at the TIME it was really bothering me when Hatton was saying Castillo is just outside the top five over and over again..... I still wanted Hatton to win, and when he did I celebrated in the late night sports bar I was in at west end. It was a good night too.

    I hope nobody thinks I'm a Hatton hater or anything because I'm really not. I met him before and he semmed like a good fella..... had a bit of a laugh with him too..... although he seemed a bit lost without 'the nannies eating sandwiches' in the front row gags.:lol:

    You have to admit even when you wanted him to win before a fight there would always be some inaccurate truth or little white lie (so it seemed) in the build up. I'd always not look that much into it and then I'd keep hearing him say it over and over and over.... it starts to grind on you.

    With the Pacquiao fight it was the constant P4P talk all the time that did it for me.... although that was just as much sky's fault for selling it like that I suppose.

    As I said before it don't bother me now anyway.

    aye prob JC,although im not a big fan,he has lacy,who was beating all put in front of him,and touted as the next big thing(but who turned out a bit ordinary)and kessler,then again he was made to look ordinary and stupid against a jones,who was more washed up than all hattons top ten fighters put togeather,maybe when kessler comes out of his comfort zone we will find out he is just another german robotic static machine as well,**** it changed me mind,hatton has the best record

    There are so many things wrong with this post I don't even know where to start.

    He was made to look ordinary and stupid by Jones, by being put down by a forearm to the chin, and then winning every single round after round 2, whilst showboating for most of it.

    Kessler is Danish.

    You are an idiot.

    ask yourself why, it's because he talks way more bollocks than anyone else, and it's all designed to boost himself up, the guy is a flat-out conman.

    The worst one about the Castillo fight was Wicky kept saying 'Jose is one of the best p4p fighters of all time'. Now THAT is ****ing bollocks, and Wicky damn well knew it....and anyone with a functioning brain knew it too. Most of us said before that fight that Castillo was done.

    on the question, Calzaghe shites all over Hatton as a fighter, and despite the Welshman wasting a lot of his career away, his best wins are still way better than Hatton's best wins.

    Hatton is pondlife.The fact that he is friends with halfwits like Michael Gomez,Joey Barton,Wayne Rooney and the Gallaghers speaks volumes...

    ..right Betty?

    i'd say the fact he's been spied in the VIP areas at Old Trafford with United players speaks volumes too, hardly befitting a guy who claims to be down-to-earth City fan.

    I saw some chat in another thread, Flint got banned for another one of his bizarre threads, this one putting the boot into me?
