Why do americans hate Ricky Hatton ?

[CutMeMick]

I didn't read all of posts but heres me thoughts...

I'm American and I don't hate him. Matter a fact almost all of the Americans I know here don't hate Hatton. Now let's not confuse not supporting/rooting for with hating.

For Hatton vs. Tszyu I was Tszyu all the way but on that night I think Hatton made a fan out of EVERYONE who tunned in that night. After a performance like that people are gonna expect the best from you. Hatton has looked far from what he did that night in June.

Since that night I was a fan I like his personality. He's funny as fuck and has charisma the atmosphere that the people bring to his fights is unlike any other that compared to Ali, ODLH, Tyson, Lennox etc. etc. I mean it was a football match just like in Man City out here in Vegas. That is insane... I found myself singing Ricky Hatton Land during his fights you just can't help it.

This thread can also be countered with why do the British hate PBF?

All in all I think Rickys good for boxing now if only he could deliver one more performance like in June of 05 and believe you me any boxing fan will applaud him.
