Reading about Ricky Hatton is one of the reasons I don't like being overly critical of fighters.

British fans, I can only speak about the boxing ones will be behind there fighter like no other..... they almost come off as delusional.

His crowds made me so angry....and I still haven't forgiven him for what he did to tszyu

Breh I was at the ass whooping he gave Paulie.

Hatton had recently took that L from Floyd and the fight with Lazcano was absolute struggle so I was liking Paulie's chances. He had picked up a few good wins after the Cotto beat down so in my mind I thought he would be able to give Hatton the same type of problems Collazo did. Boy was I wrong.

I loved the crowds but his fans that would post on comment sections and message boards were the WOAT.

I had to stop posting on ESB altogether because between the Hatton stans and Calzaghe stans on the forum, it just became unbearable

Don't get me started on Calzaghe fans, those delusional fukks would stay saying he would have beat prime BHop and Roy.

He didn't get past old BHop and a flabby Roy had him on his ass, prime Roy stops him in a few rounds and BHop UD's him.

He's lucky he got out the game when he did because Ward/Froch would have beat his ass.

Haven't been on ESB for awhile...but the Calzaghe stans on there were hilarious tho

Shots out to mah nicka 46-0 & Headbanger

And they're the hardest to troll because he retired undefeated

I've never liked calling fighters who quit on the stool or just refuse to answer the bell cowards. Some are wise enough to know when they've had enough.

Surprised this fakkit aint killed himself yet, I remember him talking hella shyt in the buildup to the Floyd fight, dude really thought he was the second coming of Muhammed Ali in cave man form. Gotta say it was one of the best feelings ever when Floyd layed his lil white ass out, showed his lil hoe ass about respect, now he knows his place.

In no way shape or form did he think he was a better fighter than Floyd you buggin.

 

[TheNig]

Depends on the situation for me....

I've always the utmost respect for Rick. He got in there and fought and didn't bytch after the lost.

Now Santa Cruz is a different situation. That nikka is a hoe. Step your punk ass in their with The Man and get this lesson fukk boy.

Jon Jones said to the best "All the training leading up to the fight is a waste of your time."

It's hard to lose after putting in all that work, even harder when your undefeated and have had nothing but to success, and to lose by KO

I don't think an undefeated fighter has even come back to form after losing by KO for the first time

I mean tyson did eventually regain his WBC and WBA titles, but Seldon got the WBA belt when it was vacant, Bruno did beat McCall, but Tyson already KO'd him prior
tyson never returned to dominance after being KO'd

Zab Judah after being KOd by Tszyu at Lightweight


He went on to win the WBO 140 Championship from Demarcus Corley, and then went up to 147 to beat Cory Spinks for the WBA/WBC/IBF Welterweight Championships

I think it might be because him and tyson were both 24 when they got KO'd so they were able to get pass it

hatton was like 28 and 29, think mayweather is like two years older than him

but neither judah or tyson got back to there same level of prestige or the aura of being dominant

manny probably the only fighter to progress after being KO'd

I can't believe how many people thought he would beat Pacqiuao ... Pac gave him one of the worst beatings in recent years
