Malignaggi-Hatton close, Paulie praises Hatton and calls him a "Great champion".

Ricky is an exciting boxer imo and that's good for boxing.

However, PPV for his next fight is fooking ludicrous. People will buy this fight, but not me. To pay �20 or whatever it is, to see him fight someone who hasn't fought for over a year is crazy.

class post good to see it isnt just me and fenster that sees this

I agree. Although I've just paid �150 to go watch this live. Its more because I've followed his whole career, and never been to see him fight once and I'll be pissed if I never get the chance. I tried for his last 3 fights and couldn't get tickets at all.

nah mate i'm all for his fans getting behind him but staging this as a big event to reward his fans sucks imo... they deserve more as he prob has the best fans in the world that would support him no matter what he did or who he fights and i think this matchup is taking the piss out of there loyalty IMO

Regardless of the opposition, it's still pretty cool that you get to see your favorite fighter live. I've never actually seen a fight in person, but my uncles took me to see my favorite sports team (Vancouver Canucks) about a month ago, it was awesome, especially since tickets are fairly expensive (especially where I was sitting) and they are damn hard to get - the team has had over 200 sellouts in a row . I was 8 rows back from the ice.
