    Well congratulations Manny. Awesome job. Im still absolutely gutted with the result but I have no complaints, Manny is awesome and I think it will be very close with the Pacman and Mayweather if they fight.

    Ricky Hatton was awful, what happened to what he apparantly learned in his camp with Mayweather, where were the jabs, head movement?? I wish it was the old ricky hatton in there last night, the Hatton from the Kosta fight. Im sorry to say but Hatton wasn't shot, but he isn't half the fighter he used to be.

    Thank you to all the Americans who have made us very welcome, I hope Ricky retires now before he seriously gets hurt (I dont think Im the only one who thought he had swollowed his tongue).

    Congratulations Manny,

    You will never see the Hatton from the Tzyu fight again because ref's outside the UK will not let him hold and hit and wrestle. His very first move of the fight was to grab pacman behind the head and try to pull him down and hit him

    I am a fan of both men but moreso Pac since I know he's the goods.

    I was well worried about Hattons condition after I saw him gasping for air, clearly unconscious.
    I hope Hatton is well, he's a great individual.

    I would love to see a farewell fight against Junior Witter in England, it would be massive.

    Hatton needs to clear his head and work on not jumping in head first, he was a KO waiting to happen:-(

    didnt hatton say he was the best hatton, much faster stronger and ****?

    Hatton's fight was all over soon as he started to use dirty tricks, hitting pacman round the back of the head.

    i've heard pacman hates dirty fighters and that sealed it for hatton. He pissed the pac off and payed dearly.

    Hatton's a staight up gentleman outside the ring, inside he's about as straight as a dogs back legs

    its a looooooong flight home. You can always sing Hatton wonderland song to pass the time.

    At least bang a hot hooker or 2 in Vegas while you can

    :thumbsup


    Exactly. We saw the same Hatton as always. We also saw what happens when the rules are properly enforced and he's forced to actually box. I wonder if people are going to try to hit Bayless with the same crap that they threw at Cortez.

    In all fairness Joe Cortez is a shitty ref........proved it in the mayweather and contradicted himself in the hopkins fight. But id say hatton losing was more down to himself charging in full force rather than bayless refereeing (to be fair to him he didnt have that long of a fight to ref)

    Exactly. If he didn't look right then he didn't look right because his opponent didn't allow him to look right. Pac was just too good to allow him to look right.

    It's funny that you guys would bring up Cortez as a shitty ref in every discussion regarding that fight but I don't see ANY of you talk about the REAL shitty ref when Hatton fought Tszyu. :roll:
