wow…didn´t know that WSB salaries would go up as high 300k !..

At least he can console himself knowing his only losses were to the 3 best fighters of his generation, Floyd, Pacquiao, and Senchenko.

In years to come he will regret this sham when he could be telling his grandkids that he only ever lost to two of the all time greats oh yeah and some other russian lad nobody ever heard of,fuckin ejit,not a big fan of hattons but he never ducked anyone unlke a certain wife beater from grand rapids

spot on…the abuse he´s getting off some lads here is ridiculous…he´s far from a fraud regardless if lads like him or not…

I dont get it either hes had some great fights,the one with koztyzu? was a classic,he fought 3 legends at the top of their game and came second best twice no shame in that,he may be a chav but he must be respected as a fighter

Agree with the above. I remember getting talking to an older Aussie bloke in a bar in Melbourne or somewhere in 2004 and telling him Hatton would beat Kostya and being almost as proud of him as if he was Irish. A fearless fighter with a big heart and as susceptible as the rest of us to fry-ups, booze, drugs, depression and too much self-reflection. Fair fucks to him for getting over his demons and getting back into shape and best of luck to him for whatever he does next.

I think we all know what he’s going to do next

+1

He has duped naive fools like you all his career with this big ordinary guy act in order to build a hardcore fanbase of white van drivers and Sun readers to line his own pockets. It’s a terrible shame Eamonn Magee didn’t finish him off that time, he’s a thick boring little chav.


Ricky Hatton has announced his retirement from boxing

A savage, brutal contest between Andre Berto and Robert Guerrero last night. Not pretty but enthralling stuff.

Has Freddie Flintoff any chance in this bout tomorrow night? Whole thing sounds nuts. Is he bored or what?

His opponent has only had two fights, both of them this year. One was against a guy who was 0-4, the other lad was making his pro debut. So for all we know, you’re a better boxer than him yourself.

Interesting interview with 50 Cent here on his feud with Mayweather.

Essentially, Floyd asked 50 to take care of ‘Mayweather Promotions’ for him when he was going into prison. 50 looked into it, realised that the company didn’t exist, and proceeded to get it up and running. This involved spending $2 million on signing fighters and other legal costs. When the time came for Floyd to put in his share, he acted like he never asked 50 to do any of it. He’s some gimp, he’s been talking about his promotional ‘business’ for the last 2-3 years. But when it actually took on real form he ran a mile from it and denied he ever had anything to do with it.

[/quote]Is this being televised?

No - the programmes detailing the training before the fight are always more interesting than the fight itself and were just to show the changes in Freddie. Due to the risk of Freddie being very badly injured it has been decided not to televise the fight in case people are shocked with the level of brutality.

50 comes across very well in that video.

It’s on Box Nation chewy

Thanks, good chance of streams knocking about for it so

I doubt mayweather has much money WTB he only paid off $17 million to the IRS not so long ago

A combination of head and body shots enough for David Price to stop Matt Skelton in round 2.

Tyson Fury next ???
