    Been on before I'm sure but worth watching the gag fest

    I've seen it twice, thats enough. The 1978 Spinks beating Ali/ Hatton being born connection was a bad start.

    Comparing himself to Roberto Duran on the basis of both letting their weight balloon up - nice one Wicky.

    Gaz - you needed to watch it twice?!

    Nah, they showed it once before a Hennesey ITV card. Even a repeat is better than Pop Idol!!;)

    They DO both put on weight. The problem would be if Hatton stretched the comparison any further.. ;)

    Excatly, if he tries to be modest and fails to mention that Duran NEVER won the WBU title...

    Whats to know, he fought reasonable guys and won, beat an old Kostya, got pumped by Mayweather and Pac, eats **** loads of crap and too much beer, end credits.

    Its not as if he compared himself to Duran as a fighter, just that he put on weight inbetween fights like Duran. Is that really so awful?

    **** guys i cant believe how sensitive people are when it comes to Hatton opening his mouth in anyway, shape or form.

    It seems to be the in thing for people to flame Hatton for anything from talking to farting.

    no just seems like a trivial and **** way to compare ones self to a superior fighter. Im not a hater by the way, just thought that sounded ****.

    ie "I get fat but its okay, duran was famous for it" ya get me?
