HATTON again doing what he loves most....

........that's taking about himself, and in the 3rd person as usual to boot. Read this then try to tell us he ain't big-headed and deluded as ****. And up the arse of his role-model DLH.
---------------------------------------------------------

Hatton is next up for Pacquiao, again at the MGM Grand. And he believes size may well matter this time round.
He said: "Oscar weighed 147 in the ring on the evening of the fight. And come fight night, for as long as I can remember, I regularly weigh 154. So I am going to be the biggest man that Manny has faced, even though he has faced Oscar.
"But anyone who defeats Oscar De La Hoya is a fantastic achievement, no matter weight, training or anything like that. But in my personal opinion, because - only Oscar can answer this question - because of what happened to make him weigh and how much weight he piled on after the weigh-in, which was very, very little - without sounding too disrespectful to Manny, I don't think it was too hard to outbox Oscar that night and too hard to beat him.
"With my new training camp with Floyd Mayweather, I would like to think I could have done the same."
Last time out Hatton produced one of the best displays of his career when stopping Paulie Malignaggi to prove once again he's the best there is at 140lbs.
That was his first fight with Floyd Mayweather Sr in his corner after the split with Billy Graham, and he believes things can only get better.
"I just think a change was needed. And people were telling me that obviously, it's not my former trainer's fault, but trainers' work is hard work. It was just a little bit of a harder decision for me to make because I'd been with Billy for so long.
"But the fact that I left Billy Graham, and I think everyone started to think that maybe I'd seen better days before the Malignaggi fight - to put the performance in I did after just seven weeks, I think shows that the right decision was made.
"I think people are used to me, that sight of Ricky Hatton, which they still get. And I'm aggressive but I'm also technical as well. You've seen the boxing side of Ricky Hatton now, and that's going to stand me in good stead. I'm being aggressive and defensive and technical at the same time now.
"So I showed improvement from the technical point of view in the last fight against Malignaggi, where I think we only just scratched the surface, me and Floyd. We're doing fantastic in the first two weeks. I think with another eight weeks under our belt, we'll be fine, to say the least."

 

Apart from the annoying 3rd person talk I think you're being harsh here.

Most of what he said there is true.

 

betty doing again what he loves most...

 

widdy says 'betty,give it a rest sweetcheeks,theres a nice chap'
widdy says 'that is all'

 

:roll:

 

Did you enjoy 'computer hour' in the asylum this week Betty?

 

It does annoy me, but much less so than when someone in a team sport does it. I think mostly when he does talk in the 3rd person he is just explaining the probable public perception of his actions. It is irritating thoughatsch

 

Yawn.

Did you count how many times he said 'I' or 'I'm' in the quotes not 3rd person if I remember right.

 

Hatton does only really use it when he refers to how the public perceive him, so it's as if he's talking from their perspective, hence he says his name rather than I.

It's alright how he uses it. Now if he was using to give opinions as in 'Ricky Hatton thinks the weather is bad', then it'd be worth complaining about. Not worth complaining about as much as Betty does though.

 

thats what i was trying to say OnOurWay, cheers. :happy:thumbsup It does midly annoy me but doesn't come close to certain footballers that seem to forget they are 'that' person to whom they refer.

 

Whats he talking about doing fantastic with the first 2 weeks with floyd and there's another 8 to go? I thought he was just training in Manchester with Lee Beard and only doing 4 weeks in the U.S with Floyd? I know Floyd wanted 8 weeks, surprised he went against that.

 

also why does he not pronounce his t's

 

betty ? do you get email alerts for hatton quotes?

i bet you do

 

Email alerts? Betty's an old school stalker in the bushes with the noculars, he don't need no email alerts!
