    Could not care less to be honest, it's a commercial dispute between two individual parties. There will either be a different story coming out of the Hatton camp (i.e. the two parties are in dispute over whether money is, in fact owed,) in which case the court will adjudicate, or else it will be an administrative **** up with the money to be paid shortly.

    As for Mayweather, he is an idiot everyone knows that, but what is Hatton supposed to do, start a big open-air row with his current trainer? Surely a great way to encourage harmony in the camp. I strongly suspect words were had in private, which is the way it should be. The Hatton-Graham split has been discussed a thousand times and the bottom line is if he had reached the stage where he was physically unable to do the job anymore then there was simply no option.

    You remain a boring, monotonenous, repetitive tool!

    An administrative error?

    What...hundreds of thousands of GBP? Some error that.

    Ricky Hatton has earned scores, if not hundreds, of millions in his career. A few hundred grand is not so massive in the scheme of things. I don't know how the arrangement operates between Ricky and Graham, but unpaid bills happen all the time, who knows maybe his accountants have lost the invoice or something - would not be an unusual situation in business. If the money is legitimately owed then I have no doubt it will be paid soon, however, as per my previous post there is a strong possibility that the story from the Hatton camp will be rather different.
