So I hear Ricky is only going to have two more fights from Maxboxing...WTF?!?!?
OK here are my picks Richard Hatton
#2 Arturo Gatti - It's a HUGE brawl that I have been waiting to see since I heard of Ricky...it MUST be made!!!
#1 MIGUEL COTTO - the fight plain and simple HAS to happen, Miguel is young and he's a brawler and he's the perfect guy to pass the torch to. And if you beat him PERHAPS you get a BIG money fight (bigger than anything else you've had)
Dude I hope that’s not true ! all the greats are getting old and retiring soon were going to be left with shit in the next few years!Quote:

Did you even read that article? Some guy is just advising Hatton to retire after 2 more fights. We all know Hatton ain't retiring yet.Quote:

That stupid little troll better have more than 2 fights left. He still needs to give a rematch to Collazo. But honestly what do people see in the peterson bros. that make them think they can be great? Seem like nice guys but not future hall of famers or nothin. Maybe future titlist or top contenders.Quote:

Actually, Lamont lacks power, Anthony is pretty damn good.
What's up with Rock Allen lately? I haven't heard ANYTHING about him
Well Spinks has something they don't though, the judges in his back pocket. It's tuff to beat a guy like that, less you KO him. Anthony was playin round and tryin to be too fancy last time out but hes only a kid so he still has a lot to learn. I'd probably make the same mistake if I was boxin on national TV already and doin what I love.Quote:

He could stay home and beat bums all night long for more money, he is a true warrier thats why he did everything in his power to fight KT and gave him 70% of the fee, would Clazaghe fight Hopkins for that split would he fuck, Hatton will fight at least 6/7 fights before he retires this is a heap of shit.
Tzyu was the undisputed champ and a star, Hatton was a glorified prospect at that point. True Warrior? Not yet IMO. Acting like he won the Collazo fight wasn't too cool. Was the first time he fought outta his backyard against a credible opponent, and he lost. Beating Tzyu was a shocker I'll admit, but Hatton still has much to prove. So like you I doubt the troll will only have 2 more fights.Quote:

Reminds me of PBF-Castillo 1 where most thought JLC won so just to shut everyone up,Floyd fought him the second time and won.Kudos to him,I believe Ricky needs to do the same.
Thats cus Castillo did win the first fight, just like Collazo. And it didn't shut me up, I will always say Castillo won that first fight. Definately though, Hatton should give Collazo a rematch.Quote:
