    Why did Floyd want the fight at 147, so much, if he could have beaten Hatton so much more easily at 140. Surely he and his team would have thought of this.

    Oh for **** sake do we really need to do this again?

    HATTON WAS OFFERED THE GOD DAMN SON OF A ***** ****ING FIGHT AT 140 AND HE TURNED IT DOWN! OKAY? CAN THAT BE THE END OF THIS?

    On a rematch


    "You wouldn't get Floyd to come down any less than 147," "I think Floyd would say I'm the champion at 147 and if you want me again, you're going to have to come up to me. I'm not going to come down to you."

    And that proves what? When Floyd was WBC champ at 140, Hatton was offered the fight. Is that clear enough for you numbnuts?

    To be fair, JonOli is a dense ****. He's just finished wanking himself until hes practically blind over Ricky Hatton. Guy can't see what he's posting.

    Hatton did OK, the big question before hand from people was about his alleged declining stamina. He fought the fight at a decent pace with no signs of gassing and picked his shots well.

    A solid 7/10 and a good comeback fight.

    Go watch at home with the Hattons, again, the lot of you obsessive Haters have seen it at least once.

    I don't mind Ricky Hatton, but could never be bothered to watch that total bollox.

    You didn't miss a damn frame of that ****.

    Oh, and you 'don't mind him' is understatement of the year

    What's all this drama with the ref? There must be about 10 threads on this over in the general forum.

    Agreed. The fight tested his stamina, and brought back possible lost confidence. It was an easy points win for Hatton and couldn't have asked for a huge amount more from a comeback fight. Hatton will never be a slick technical boxer. An early KO wouldn't have really tested or shown much; he couldnd get it anyway.

    Somethings clearly could have been better though...

    Worrying signs that he was clearly rocked on several occasions as well.

    7/10 is fair, a very enjoyable fight as well.
