    I wouldn't know about figures but I feel that it is reasons like making people pay money to watch Hatton take on a man like Lazcano that is killing boxing.
    Hatton should be ashamed of calling himself a man of the people.

    Why should Hatton be ashamed? Sky have the rights to his fights and can do whatever they please with them. If they wanted to show it at 4am, three weeks later on QVC with Des O'Connor doing PBP, they could.

    It has **** all to do with Hatton.

    Bull****.

    IF I was Ricky Hatton 'Man of the people' I would have made sure in my contract with Sky that I would only agree to PPV if it was for a world title or against a top 10 fighter. I would have said, shove your millions up your arse, I am already minted. I am not shafting my fans - IF I was a man of the people.
