    Asked him if he was going u to fight Barker and he said yes pruse bids on friday.

    Said he has left the Hattons as they are "really **** promoters, nearly as bad as hennessy!"

    Sais hennesey wont bid as he has know TV.

    is a free agent, talking to goldenboy.

    said he doesn't think barker is very good.

    said he is in a final eliminator with Giovanni Lorenzo for the IBF aswell. He said Barker would happen first then Lorenzo in the US.

    said Sebastian Sylvester is **** and he would beat him even in Germany.

    I thought him and Hatton were good friends? Funny thing for Macklin to say about his promotional outfit...

    To be fair to Rob Macklin said almost identical things in his boxing monthly article recently.. He definitly has slated Hatton promotions since he left, It also shocked me too cos they paid him huge sums of money and he was always quite close with Ricky...:roll:

    "Really **** promoters, nearly as bad as Hennessy!"

    Is this gonna be Hatton Promotions' new tagline?

    I suppose they are entitled but I wouldn't be speaking to any randomer over the internet.
