    You were hoping for him to be dragged through town by a team of horses for a session on the ducking stool by the river then back to the marketplace where he'd be hung, drawn and quartered, eh Scurla??

    I feel fining these mega rich stars is a joke and a waste of time.

    £20,000 to Hatton - is nothing - he could sniff that much up his nose no problem when he is worth £55,000,000.

    Amir Khan was fined £1000 for dangerous driving and knocking someone down - when he is worth £7,500,000.

    What a joke.

    Thats not puinishing a person whatsoever.

    If they really want to punish them they should think of ways where they really pay a price for their actions.

    But alas - if you are rich - you can pay for your "punishement".

    It would have taken a lot of ball to remove his right to promote.

    so they're taking pocket change off Wicky and not alowing an already retired boxer fight again :patsch, how harsh.
    They should've come down on him like a ton of bricks, make an example of him. Try to con people and sooner or later you pay a proper price.
    Biscuit-ersed Hatton gets away with it again.

    Makes no odds really, lets be honest he doesn't exactly look as though he's fighting again anytime soon and the fine is peanuts to him.

    I don't get it. Do people actually want Hatton promotions disbanded? how the f*ck does that serve boxing? especially when that company is doing a pretty good job.

    **** off you lying ******ed piece of ****. Yeah doing coke is really trying to con people. As for his promoters license don't see what concern it is of the BBBC if a promoter does a bit of sniff at the weekend. If it had been a lesser name nobody would give two hoots.

    I guess some people hate Hatton more than they love boxing. No names, no pack drill.....

    It's not one I've felt the need to go with, but in a general argument sense:

    Maybe some people don't wish to see sport promoters splashed across the Sunday tabloids snorting Illegal drugs, drugs banned in the very game they are promoting.

    Is he still ducking Witter though?

    Was losing his licence all part of the master plan to avoid Witter?
