Hatton boxed his head off for four rounds and then it went pear shaped, in his words he took his foot of the gas. To get him back on track Graham didnt say get back to how you were fighting a couple of rounds ago, he said grab him. Still baffled as to why that was.

Edit: Graham could definately be heard saying "we'll get through this, it happens to everyone"

I read in one of the papers today that Hatton thought he had broken a rib and was struggling with that. Looked to be caused y the body shots in round 5.

I wouldn't be surprised, I thought that during the fight, butwould've thought he would've mentioned it in the post fight interview. If he did damage a rib, he did amazingly well to continue as anybody who has ever hurt their ribs (like me) will understand.

Probably right mate

The rib punches definitely did damage and he definitely didn't look right from that point onwards.

"A left hook caught me under the ribs and two rounds later it was still hurting. On the scorecards it looked like a bit of landslide, but he was one of the most hurtful fighters I have faced. My sides are a bit sore. He was the first opponent who has given me a really sustained body attack. I may have looked like I was boxing his ears off but he kept pushing a haymaker off, and I can tell you they hurt."

Castillo's gonna love that.

Lol - probably not the best thing for him to be telling everybody

I dont think Castillo needs any inviting to be fair

Big deal, another belt. Who's Urango? Nobody and untested.

The win was supposed to be a talor made fight for Hatton.
A gimme fight, belt, and showing on HBO.

America has ruined Hatton, hahaha. As it has so many other people!

haha

42-0 - World champion - made $2 Million and lined up for a fight with Castillo - not exactly ruined

Oh, his future has been set, ever since he signed that nice HBO deal.

I just expect him to continue to be the Mini-Joe Frazier I've always seen and hoped of him.

Thats a HHHUUUUUGGGEE compliment to Hatton's style and force.

But he was NO Frazier in his last fight. Very disappointing IMHO.

i don't think it matters if he had said this, because it was very obvious he was hurt by body shots, hatton was almost jumping of the canvas to get a lift to avoid the body shots. i knew urango could hurt him, suck urango wasn't smart enough to keep going after hattons body after the six round.

to me that was too straight of hattons fight that he could of lost. and urango isn't close to elite atleast not yet, and if he would of just kept punishing the body, hatton would of been finish or atleast in huge trouble.
