Hatton is soooooo modest!

Ok let me reword it. It changes people and most of the time for the WORST but not in Hatton's case. There are many others of course but he is a prime example.

He lives in the same area, has the same friends, doesn't go flashing his money around in public and does a lot for charity.

Ok, I admit he goes on about it a bit but that's his only downfall there. Much better than acting like someone like PBF don't you think?

 

That's kind of the point mate.

He is a world famous, world class boxer with a **** load of money but it hasn't gone to his head. He still has the same mates, drinks in the same pubs, lives in the same area, etc etc.

Your post made me giggle a bit.

P.s. He is going on about it a bit too much but that is what the media want from him. Me and my mate, the other day, were ****ing about with impressions of Rick and the "I'm just one of the lads" routine.

I dunno, you can't blame him, it's important to him.

 

Yes, because most boxers wouldn't say that would they :roll:

I'd be worried if he wasn't saying anything different.

 

I have not been watching the build up but I know that Floyd is insufferable.

1 to the 2. We got them guns? Yup!

3 to the 4. We got them ho's? Yup!

5 to the 8. We got dat cash? Yup!

 

I can not see anybody looking back on Floyd's attitude with a fondness.

Meh, I am just interested in the fight.

 

what point are you making here?

'the prince' is one of the most underrated boxers on ESB, maybe that is what you are getting at. :think

 

When ricky got mugged on holiday a few years back in either brazil or india(cant remember now),the guys nicked his rolex watch,and he was so cool about it in a interview later,he said "no way im dying for a watch",and "there was about 6 of them with knives,i aint that stupid to make a issue out of it"
Which shows he just like most of us would be in that situation,you alls know some fighters would try to make it look like they were big and cool,he did not even try

 

i agree on floyd but not with naz. peoples sense of reason goes out the window when it comes to hamed, very few people on this forum are willing to defend him.

his opposition are written off as bums, his unifying of the major titles and domination of a division for 5/6 years are ignored, the fact he was fighting above his natural weight ignored and it is constantly claimed than when he stepped up he failed, he gets more **** than 99% of past fighters on this forum.

 

I think that Floyd is in a league of his own as far as his attitude goes.

I do not view it as arrogance, but something far deeper that is dominating him.

He does not give the impression of being fully in control.

 

very true
