    Default Graham warning for Hatton

    Graham has mapped out a three-fight path for the Manchester 'Hit Man' which he believes will leave him with nothing else to prove and allow him to retire with his unbeaten record intact.

    But Graham insisted one of the most profitable partnerships in British boxing history could be placed in jeopardy if Hatton one day resisted his calls to quit.

    Hatton challenges Juan Urango for his old IBF light-welterweight title in Las Vegas on Saturday night before a projected super-fight against former lightweight star Jose Luis Castillo.

    Floyd Mayweather then remains the pair's ultimate target with the world pound-for-pound prize at stake and Graham said: "He will have enough money and enough glory and I think he should then get out. Read more...

    Peronsally don't think Graham is that good of a trainer anyhow? anyone think hes actualy good? step up in weight and short notice aside, there was very little head movment when he fought collazo, he really struggled to get inside him, hatton should of ditched Graham and gone with freddy roach, he would bring the best out of hatton imo

    well Graham didnt want Hatton to step up and also didnt want him to take the Collazo fight... lets just hope Ricky isnt taking these guys for granted and living off the KT win.

    Naz started to lose interest in the last part of he career when he had made his money i really hope this aint happening to Hatton

    Time will tell and it starts this weekend

    there is no way that ricky would leave the preacher man for another trainer. no chance. and i think billy graham is a fantastic trainer, the shape he gets ricky in and gets him down to 140 time and time again is awesome, and it's not just all down to how hard ricky trains either, billy works his balls off in the average training session with hatton. have you seen the sweat on him after the body bag session? and it's not all ricky's. plus billy has been in the buisness for so many years that there isn't much he doesn't know.

    You think so Smash? Ive seen Graham working the corner of some of his lesser fighters and his corner work has left a lot to be desired. Basically if it starts to go pear shaped grab on for dear life.

    If the shit hits the fan the Preacher wouldnt be at the top of my 'who the fuck is going to help me out of this' list

    Quitting is easier said than done, especially with the purses Ricky can pick up. Its no wonder so many people choose to fight on really.

    I was in 2 mins about the collazo fight, i was mostly willing to say "ok fair enough bad fight, new eight, little time to act etc" but still wonderd where hattons head movment was, his ability to get inside jabs from past training?

    then i seen the macklin v moore fight, after the first round i woulda bet my house on the fact macklin was gunna tire him self out and get stopped or sparked TFO - hell even jimm watts said around the second or thrid that if macklin carrys on like this he is in a world of shit - you could see didn't look like stopping moore, but where was the preacher to tell him to go to plan be? did he take one to many punches in his career and think it was ricky hatton in the ring there? i could be wrong, plz correct me if i am he might of told macklin to try this or that, but basicaly form what i seen (a lil drunk and didn't catch all corner talk) he was wanting macklin to keep fighting like that...
