Why do americans hate Ricky Hatton ?

[Julius Rain]

I'm American, and I don't hate Ricky.

His one of the few guy that holds down a division and is still a champ. Plus his still UNDEFEATED in his division, 140.

He lost to one fighter, the p4p best at the time. Nothing to be a shame of, plus it was above his weight division. He suppose to lose that fight. Gotta praise every fighters courage, and Ricky is one bad ass brave warrior. Thats my type of fighter.

[leftylee]

The plain and simple reason is that Ricky's fanbase is made up of the lowest forms of human life there are.....MANCS, CHAVS, HOOLIGANS, and just outright assholes!



If Ricky had Emo's following him he'd complete the cycle!


Ricky himself seems to be a good guy but his fans are jackasses

Cuz they follow him every place on the earth ? At least Hatton fans are made up of English fans. The thing you support is Liverpool FC, yet you live in the USA talk about supporting the homegrown As for boxing you suck Dr Slaphammer's dick, yet he's German Do you support anything in your own country ?

NO! i wont have that!

Man is nuts about Pavlik, i mean he thinks he can beat Calzaghe! now that is patrism of the highest order.

[wesrman]

I dont see how anyone can not like Hatton. He seems like a normal dude.

However im not American.

Yep that theory gets shot to shit plain and simple with you, since there are a few beliefs you have in regard to Calzaghe and I'll list them for everyone..

1) Joe Calzaghe is faster than a speeding bullet

2) Joe Calzaghe is more powerful than a Locomotive

3) Joe Calzaghe is able to leap tall buildings in a single bound

4) Joe Calzaghe eats lighting and craps thunder

5) Joe Calzaghe has an 18in prick

I just wanted to clear everything up for the forum so they can understand better were you are coming from

[southakron314]

I dont hate Hatton. He is a common man. I do however think his fans are rather crazy at times. But that shows passion. I wish they would stop booing the star spangle banner. Now Calzaghe on the other hand I could care less if he drank gas and tried to piss out a brush fire. I really disliked his fans at the Manfredo Jr fight do to the classlesness.

[BoxingGorilla]

I know some Hatton fans off board. Of course, they are not boxing addicts like us saddo folk.

We seem to dislike Hatton when compared to his countrymen but he has fans here.

[Entragian138]

I'm an American and Ricky Hatton is hands down my favorite fighter on the planet.

I wish there were more fighters like Ricky outside the ring. Pure class.

[littlebif]

Hatton hasnt always used the holding tactics its only the last few years he has been like this its as if he has forgot how to box on the inside without holding.

When he was fighting Mayweather in Vegas most Americans i talked to liked Hattons, cause he will give his all in the ring and is a nice bloke that will not ignore his fans.

[Lance Uppercut]

I think americans do like hatton. I think what you see on this board is just a backlash against all the people who think Ricky Hatton is the greatest boxer ever.

[El Kabong]

Harsh, cant really disagree although ive met some nice people that follow Hatton.

I never said there weren't any nice people that follow Ricky.

And for all of those people negative repping me, I'm just saying that's what Americans see....that's what I saw and heard booing the National Anthem....am I wrong in saying that a fair number of very VISABLE Ricky Hatton fans are of the groups I mentioned

At least Ricky himself seems to be a nice guy...he's no Floyd Mayweather Jr....but some of his fans are close

#1 His fans suck because the visable majority are classless...booing the National Anthem that's uncalled for...no one expects them to cheer for Floyd but that right there clinched it for me, I'm not supporting Ricky because the people who do support Ricky are fucking morons.

#2 I follow Liverpool closely...I also follow American soccer (more the national team than the MLS but I've caught more games lately). The NFL, Baseball, Basketball, and yeah the right boxers I am extremely supportive of the Americans.

#3 Wladimir is from the Ukraine

#4 You have helped prove my point about Hatton fans...thanks

Ironically,

some of the coolest fans on the forum are Judah fans.

How dare you insult the Hatton fans.....don't you know that all things Ricky are great!?!?!

Send him to the Tower!! Off with his head!!!!



Hell I get crap for saying Wlad could beat guys like Bonecrusher Smith and the Ricky Hatton fans get to compare Ricky to Aaron Pryor.....I sense maybe there is a double standard

Except Legion made some threads yesterday that really hurt my feelings. I thought we were closer than that.
