Hatton picked his team and then proceeded to get his ass handed to him. Why are we even dignifying these ridiculous excuses?
why is EVERY single time I hear a boxer or anyone in a boxer's team use the phrase "I'm not making excuses," it's immediately followed by a not even thinly veiled excuse?? Listen, if you're about to unleash a barrage of mind numbing excuses at least have the decency not to waste my time having to listen to you say you aren't going to do so. Just get on with it already. Now remember, this is Team Hatton we're talking about. Ricky said himself that he thinks there needs to be an asterisk next to the L against Floyd, and now his daddy wants to jump in and say "that wasn't Ricky that Manny beat." **** off. Must be nice to have such a strong sense of denial, they can eventually retire believing the "real" Ricky Hatton was never defeated inside the ring, and that dude that looks exactly like Ricky Hatton, who got knocked the **** out in his two biggest fights, was just some silly imposter. Who ate all the pies indeed.
atschI finally get it! When hatton has a big fight where he absolutely needs to show up and put the skills on display he hires a double. The "hitman" employs the "shitman" to get mopped up by the day's p4p best.:nut
