    lol Hatton was healthy .. it's not Pacquiao's fault that between fights Ricky is known for the already mentioned unhealthy lifestyle of excessive eating and drinking .. and it's been well publicized that Hatton blows up in weight between fights to as high as 180

    and again this was something he's been doing a majority of his career.

    **but on a more serious note, pre Pacquiao fight their was an article on Hatton where Floyd Sr. his trainer, spoke up about wanting Ricky to quit the lifestyle

    i don't know his exact words, but Hatton responded negatively toward the criticism.

    **it's not the worst thing in the world (Hatton's out of ring habits) a doctor said he should quit .. his own former head trainer said he should quit

    but I think Hatton's too stubborn to quit.

    Well Pac isnt that different, fyi. He stays up late, he gambles, he makes movies, he drinks, he carelessly play basketball at the local playground, he hangs with those dirty politicians...etc..Pac's just lucky to have the physical attributes he has. But if he doesnt change his unhealthy lifestyle, its going to catch up sooner or later.:-(

    regardless of gambling, playing basketball and (shocks) making movies

    I would think blowing up to twice your weight class because of a poor diet between fights and eating unhealthy

    would have much more of a

    than any of the above three I named, but that's just me.

    there's plenty of unhealthy ways you can live your life.

    but given the examples of say an excessive gambler vs a smoker

    they both are considered unhealthy, as one drains your money, and the other your gradual health.

    and yeah Pacquiao might not live the healthiest you can .. but compared to Hatton .. it seems like Ricky's lifestyle takes more of a toll on his physical health

    can styles make life, and not just fights?

    You have a lot to learn about boxing.

    A fighter is shot/unhealthy/under-prepared by definition if he loses a fight.
