Care to explain how?

This was a real good fan Q&A btw. Usuaully you just get the usual S*** like...

Q. What advice would you give to an aspiring boxer?

A. Ummm train hard and stay clean.

Not very interesting. But the questions they asked him were the questions people wanted to know. Good stuff, cc
There are a number of approaches to this

a) That was the shortest retirement I have ever seen

b) Hatton calling him out is reason to fight him and yet Margarito was
not worth fighting and was talking way more

c) His comments on Cotto are also annoying, it isnt as though Floyd hasnt
himself topped up his record by preying upon fighters with losses to
their name.


Yeah but Miles, you have to realize that he's obviously going to say something like that to make this fight out to be personal and garner peoples interest... THe reality is he's fighting Hatton because Ricky is a mega star in the sport who will earn him a lot more credit if he wins. Margarito was calling him out but not many people even knew who Tony was, and after the fight evcen those who did could have just said oh well he hadn't fought anyone. It doesn't make him a hypocrite moreso than practically every other fighter..
