    Was it me or did Ricky Hatton sound like a journeyman who's been beaten up over and over during a long tough career on BBC Sports Personality of the Year. Was nice to see him there and not shying away after last night - his face looked a mess though. I don't know if it was just the disappointment of the fight or what but Hatton just couldn't speak properly. Anyone else think the same?

    I didn't see it, but the guy is still probably concussed from last night. He got hit with alot of good punches, and hit that turnbuckle pretty hard.

    Was not 'punch drunk' just getting normal drunk via a few cold ones.

    Yeah, you know he's more than making up for being alcohol free for 13 weeks

    Bull****. He sounded great after the fight considering the punches he took, was even cracking a few good jokes

    And at the press conference

    He's fine

    Not punch drunk, just drunk. He has been drinking and who can blame him?

    From the footage I've seen so far post-fight, he's definately enjoying a bite to eat, so I'm guessing he'll be washing it down with something stronger than water. :D
