Exactly. Foster jnr, Farnell, Hatton & Rawling were sent homewards to think again. I just hope the scottish posters on ESB who ride Hattons dick & dare argue with me finally realised that Hatton hates us scots, & thats the second time Hatton has turned up to cheer against the scottish fighter. Unlike yours truly, Hatton & his fans have no class. British boxing my arse, & I hope you scottish fans who wasted your money going to Vegas to cheer Hatton on now realise he ****in hates you scottish boys. If he liked you, would he keep appearing in Scotland to cheer on the englishmen when they fight our boys??? Wake up & smell the coffee for ****s sake.
Bit harsh Dunky. Hatton is English and as such is entitled to cheer on an English fighter - much in the same way I am entitled to cheer on anyone who fights an Englander!! Boxing highlight of the year : Hatton kissing the turnbuckle!
Was Arthur in trouble after the KD? Different reports say different things...i think it was the BBC said he was on jelly legs and hanging on. I heard he was being a cocky ******* again....well he's just not good enough, he can't afford to act like he's a god. Hopefully that is a reality check, just like the Gomez fight was. Arthur claims he and Hatton are pals, going back over 10 years. That's twice now Hatton has been pulling against Arthur in his hometown. Who needs mates like that?! Unless AAA is talking shite about that too. I feel Wicky's true colours are coming out. See how he ended with Warren, uncerimoniously dumping him, the guy who allowed him to build up a fortune and big following fighting no marks at the MEN. Rumours of him ditching his loyal trainer Graham right after his first loss...and cheering against his pals. It wouldn't surprise me to see Hatton up De La Hoya's arse before too long, teaming up with the devil himself. We shall soon see.
Funny how this has turned into a thread slagging off hatton, when aa was the one who almost got beaten by an undersized steve foster, amd again showed he isn't good enough to hang with the top fighter's at 130 or 135.
They were very bias, although Foster was competitive he only won the first round out of the first 7 rounds. I think the setanta guy had it by 1 point in the end for Arthur. Arthur has no business fighting at that weight anymore, he was so slow and dead at the weight it was unfunny.
"Loyal trainer Graham"??????? You've just been calling the guy an inept amatuer in the other thread and as touching as your praise is for our beloved Frank Warren it does ring a little hollow. Both the times Hatton has been with fighters against AA the fighters were fellow Mancs who Hatton will have know well and trained with, thats fair enough surely?
Arthur was completely gone for a very short time. He was totally recovered after about 30 seconds after the knock down. He just kept the distance and held Foster while his head cleared. I think the weight issue, explains everything to do with the bad performance and the knock down he suffered. Arthur should be stopping the Foster Jr's of this world, if he wants to provide me with any evidence that he can claim a geniune world title.
Come on gaz he has some scottish fans so e should obviously support scottish fighter's instead of english ones from manchester :roll:
yeah I think he's average at best, and his masterplan to beat Floyd appeared nothing more than getting Hatton smashing a massive body bag for a while every day. However what i'm saying is that if he dumps him now, it's gonna look really bad on Wicky. Timing is the key to the issue. To be honest, AAA is probably talking bollocks as usual when he says he and Hatton are good mates.
I've always thought the "Amazing" nickname was a bit over the top. He is good, but not world class. Weight drained or not, he was very easy to hit yet still cocky. Foster was a bit naughty with his head but Arther started to play on it a bit much as he got more tired. If Alex Arther moves up a weight he might be stronger, but I doubt whether it will make him world class.
