WTF was up with Hatton's entrance music? some funny slow comedy song........ then when he was in the ring, 5 seconds of his signature ''Blue Moon''
Just another sign of something being wrong in the camp. Hatton didnt have his usual determined demenour either. His eyes wernt fixed as usual but wandering, looking around. Plus, why did he decide to enter the ring first? AND he didnt stare out Manny for nearly all of the stare down. Even though Hatton always locks eyes with his opponents. Also, even before Hatton got clipped by manny, he was too inactive. His jabs had no real intent and none of the head movement he promised. He never fought in his old style or his "new one." Something just seemed wrong to me.
Good point - the prime Ricky Hatton always looked at his opponent as if he was a ferocious rottweiler who was going to rip him into bits. That was Ricky Hatton everybody loved. I noticed that lack of a violent stare - that there cries "retire" - you have done your fans proud my son, but just be a promoter of the sport now.
