Re: Hatton fought Urango with a chest infection!
Boxing fans are getting more and more demanding. If a fighter doesn't look absolutely perfect, then a lot of fans demean them - I just don't get this. Sure, I'll probably complain if a fight turns into a hugfest or a track meet, but both of those scenarios are perfectly legitimate fight-winning strategies. May not be the most entertaining, but it gets the job done!
People complain too much. A little here or there is justified - e.g. Ruiz - but constantly demeaning a fighter is just uncalled for. These guys put it all on the line for our entertainment, and deserve our respect.
Re: Hatton fought Urango with a chest infection!
"Ricky suffered a really bad chest infection in the lead-up to the fight while out in Las Vegas."
Ive had a bad chest infection and had to spend a week in hospital :'( :'( :'(...RH looked OK in the pre and post fight press conf's to me ::** Its a load of rubbish. He ran out of steam because he was inactive for too long and likes Kebabs >:mad
Re: Hatton fought Urango with a chest infection!
Ive had chest oinfection and NOT had to spend any time in hospital, you must be a big girls blouse.
Either that or its possible for one chest infection to be worse than another, I'll let you decide.

Who is Violent Demise bias towards? If you don\'t mind me asking, that is.
Nobody. Violent D always tells it like it is. It's just that when it involves certain fighters, that fighters groupies tend to take every thing as an insult. Case in point. Hatton's father makes an excuse about a fight his son won? Why make an excuse? He won. I point that out. Next thing you know The committee (Memphis, Little H and Miles) of the "Hatton is the Messiah" groupie club rush out to protect there masters name. And I didn't even insult the boy.
Re: Hatton fought Urango with a chest infection!
Remind us again why Kelson Pinto pulled out of his fight with Hatton? Whenever your ready Violent D.

Im not too sure about being put in the groupie club!! ;D
You do tell it like it is and thats why I take notice of your posts. Ive only maintained that to be fair to Hatton, he hasnt actually been coming out with any excuses himself. He got his win, gave credit to his opponent and seems to have moved on. Fair enough IMO.

;D He got at least one person to swallow that line then.
If only he had a pair of stones like the great Ricky Hatton, he would have soldiered on through that shit ;)

I agree. I taught that's were everybody left it at. That is until his father decides to open his mouth. I'm just wondering why he felt Ricky's performance needed to be explained

But he doesn't. So he didn't. He would been better changing divisions to avoid the fight.
Re: Hatton fought Urango with a chest infection!
He would have been better off calling it a day right there and then I think.

Yup. That needed saying. CC.
Re: Hatton fought Urango with a chest infection!
I certainly wouldn't be able to participate in sport with a chest infection, let alone box a beast in Vegas for 12 rounds.
Re: Hatton fought Urango with a chest infection!
