    I didn't pay that much.

    But I ended up paying a lot on alcohol at the bar, which made the fight more entertaining.

    Unfortunately no amount of alcohol could make the Hopkins-Wright fight a couple months later entertaining.

    No way Hatton sucks, and Malignaggi sucks too.

    **** after there last card they should be paying us to watch this garbage.

    If Malignaggi and Hatton spent half as much time training as they did worrying about there hair, or fat suit and blue collar image then maybe they would be worthy of say a Wednesday Night Fights Card.

    Face it people Hatton is on the tail end of his career and has looked mediocre at best in his last 5 outings excluding his fight with washed up castillo.

    And Malignaggi, well hes a just a feather fisted clown.

    Fair enough hatton looked tenative against lazcano it was is first fight back infront of 58000 expectant crowd and wouldn't you be after being leathered by floyd. He and saying his last five fights since Koysta were crap is a bit harsh he was good against an awkward maussa, looked alright for the 7 rounds against collazo and had the flu against rango.

    The flu, come on, everyones got an excuse. Im just pointing out that Hatton has shown to be a consistent letdown for the past couple of years. I'm sure his fans won't argue with that. I said he looked mediocre at best, and thats exactly how it looked, rewatch those fights. He just scraped by.

    No he did have the flu because on British TV their was a documentary leading up to the fight nad it showed him being ill in bed, and paracetomal and cough medicine.

    that would be expected, i don't think a loss to dlh would prevent a hatton/manny fight.
