    ****ing horrible.

    I could obviously see it was a brutal punch the first time, but the slow mo replay and then the close up of Hatton laid out on the floor was just disgusting.

    I even felt a bit sick tbh, never really felt like that after a KO before.

    Praise to Pacquiao though, I thought he was a bit overrated, but he was amazing last night, just hope he fights Mayweather now.

    I was just shocked..... it was comparable to Jackson vs Graham.

    His confidence will be totally shot now.

    I don't believe even Betty Swollocks would have enjoyed seeing Hatton hurt like that.

    I know Ricky likes the big money for these big fights, but that can't have been worth it....

    I listened to the fight live on radio 5, to save myself £15 for watching it on sky. I'm glad I did that, but it sounded pretty brutal, and I couldn't believe it, especially not as early as the second round.

    Hats off to Ricky for having the guts to get in there with a fighter of that level in the first place, though.

    Can you imagine that shot detonating on Khan?

    I would like to.

    Slagging a fighter off on a forum is one thing, but seeing them badly hurt is a different matter. I would be disappointed if anyone here got any pleasure over how that ended.

    I know there have been KO's that have looked worse, but....

    ....I proper like Hatton, think he's a really nice guy. So to see him beaten on like that was just horrible, especially when he got turned on to his side, he looked really ill.

    Don't think it helps that they always show his missus, who's sobbing and looks like she's gonna be sick.

    Certainly not the most brutal KO i've seen....still trying to decide if it's the most satisfying. The turnbuckle scene after roaring 'I 'ope Floyd 'its me 'arder than he 'its them fookin' pads' is hard to surpass.

    Hatton got exposed again....overrated and outclassed.

    Brutal KO, and I honestly couldn't see Pacquiao knocking him out in that fashion. A ref stoppage later on maybe, but not that.

    All props to Manny though. He is truly a great. And he has so many options now. He could chase the big fights up at WW or with JMM or he could stay at 140 and clear up. I'd favour him over all of the top guys at 140.
