    He needs every advantage he can get to beat Floyd. I do not mind it on this occasion.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I've wondered the same bro. Hatton use to blow up to like 177 between camps. During that first retirement he went full blown fat to the 200 range. If the dude would have left the beer alone and taken care of himself...he probably would still be quite relevant and maybe at his real weight class.

    I love Ricky but no way would he have still been able to do it. Fighters who fight like that generally have a short life span at the top. You can't go hell for leather your whole career and expect to be doing it in the latter part of your 30's. You're right though, if he'd lived the life of an athlete, he may have had a longer career.

    He probably would have lasted a bit longer in this sport but his style required so much energy and punishment that I doubt he would still be a top fighter if he was still fighting today.

    Work ethnic is one thing but because of his style, I think his career would have been cut short.

    I don't know but I know what Floyd's was when he came in 2 pounds heavier to fight already a small guy in Marquez. God only knows how much he weighted that night he refused to weigh in on fight night.

    I tell you bro, it's one thing to root for a fighter and it's another thing to be a blinded fan boy. Or I guess it's cool when Floyd does it. We'll just call that hard work and dedication.

    Nobody believes that Floyd is cutting weight do they?

    What weight are they fighting at?

    Isn't it 152? Floyd is tiny.

    I think your alittle bit confused petal.

    No one is talking about marquez here.

    I mentioned if hatton had a better work ethic and diet i wondered if he would still be fighting today.

    I think hatton had a style that got exposed and hatton takes alot of damage but blowing up vetween fighters cant be good for anyone.
