Hatton would have to near kill himself to make 140 these days - and if he did and fought John Murray he would get sparked out again - only this time after a sustaned beating over 7 or 8 rounds, I seriously think he's that bad now after the pac KO , the drinking binges and all the powder he's snorted , remember the tabloids quote - Ricky went on to snort an industrial quantity of cocaine :good
Hit....hold....hit....hold.....hit....hold.....hold...hold...hit...hold...hit...hold...hold...hit I pretty much just summed up every Ricky Hatton fight.
A Salita v Hatton match up would be one of those dream, chinchecker match ups. Whose disgraceful lack of any punch resistance would be brutally exposed first?
Hatton closed the gap against Tszyu , and it has always been known KT cannot work on the inside , therefore even from the 1st round Tszyu was holding when the fight got close. You dont win and defend the Linear Junior Welterweight title by your hit and hold tactics. Hatton would have always had Tszyu's number , it is just the wrong fight for him. Mayweather would have knocked him out , but would have done it without losing a round , However I think he would stop Pacquiao . Stlyes make fights my friend.
Hatton made close to 10 mill in 2009. His worth is said to be £35 million. Second highest paid boxer in the UK behind Lennox. Do you know who is 3rd?
Hatton employed the same hit/hold tactics against Tszyu he has always employed. Hatton was never the free punching combination puncher people made him out to be. He'd bore in with one shot, than hold.
IF, and its a big IF, Hatton makes a comeback then the only fight that would make serious money would be against Khan. Wembley stadium sell out, Sky PPV, easily £5m+ each per fighter (probably nearer £10m)
Yes very good. Naz retired with an approx 30mil. Highest paid Feather of all time . Manny obviously came through feather but never made the money down there. Who is 4th ?
