Hatton quote before the Pacman fight

source or link?

 

I read that too.

 

If true then Hatton really is as deluded as people make him out to be. But then again Betty is Hatton's version of Jack Presscot just without the humour so I wouldn't take anything he says seriously unless there is a link.

 

There is no ****in way in hell he could have said that...

Priceless.

 

yeah well thats excatly what happened. He 100% didn't think Pacquiao was going to hurt him and he just went out there 2 gears too high for that point in the fight. And got humbled for his efforts.

 

I doubt he said it but if he did he was joking.

scroll down ,, he did say that lol

Right enough, he believes, to give Pacquiao the fight of his life – "Filipino reporters keep asking me, 'How are you going to deal with Manny's power?' and I just say '**** off'" – and build on that legacy which he believes is already not so inconsiderable. "Not many British fighters have been the world's pound-for-pound champion and that would be a tremendous achievement. To be mentioned alongside my heroes like Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank and Barry McGuigan has always been my ambition."

 

Seriously, this guy needs counselling. His warped obsession with Hatton is freakish. Get a ****ing life, you sad twat.

 

To be fair, nobody thought that Manny was going to be that powerful. So stop hating on him.

David Diaz did.
Hoya did.
Stovepipe did.

 

If reporters were buzzing around me constantly not giving me a second to myself I'd tell them to **** off too. All questions should be asked/answered at the various press conferences. Not on a boxers own time.

 

hattard.
