Cheers bzkfn, I forgot all this thread and I also agree it should be a regular! We all need a place where we can just hate without having to justify it, an outlet for irrationality is necessary in life for sure.

With that said, I will offer up Matthew Hatton as the focal point of my contempt these days.

Why?

Simply because he is the most boring and unexciting man (goes way beyond just boxing) on the planet.

If he was weather he would be grey clouds. No rain or sunshine, windless, not hot or cold, just grey and featureless.

If he was a place he would be Slough.

His boxing style is the most dull and anonymous of any fighter I can think of. At least other bad fighters have an ugly style, like excessive holding, or dancing about refusing to engage. Hatton just has no style, he's completely anonymous. I watch him fight and my eyes immediately glaze over until the final bell for 12 dreary forgettable rounds has rung and he's won a decision.

In terms of charisma he is defintiely from the Gary Barlow and Karl Pilkington mould. But unlike Pilkington who manages to be hilariously funny, and Barlow who at least writes some decent songs Hatton is just completely beige.

I can't say there is anything unlikeable about him, it's worse than that. It's just there is literally nothing going on there at all. He's like an episode of Car Booty or Cash in the Attic, not offensive but utterly pointless and sucked dry of any entertainment value at all.

He's so bland I can't even make this post funny, there is just nothing to work with
