Everyone no's that he is past his best it gets to every fighter in the end weather they like it or not.Hope Ricky makes it out of boxing in full health but if he continues to take punches like he has done in his last few fights he will get hurt.(excluding Paulie who carnt break an egg)
Oh? Is it so obvious? Just because he got slaughtered by PAC it must be because he is past his prime? Sounds kinda like an excuse of a different kind to me. I'd say the PAC fight was over too soon to tell for sure.

Seems to me some of Hatton's biggest fans were tossing around words like "brilliant" and "great" when he was thumping Maglianaggi. Not to mention how they rejected the possibility that Kostya was past it when hatton was pushing him around. But I guess that's different.
Hatton has never been a great and never will.He was a good fighter that was no1 in his division but lost to the p4p best twice.

He looked good against Paulie Mal because Pauile couldnt hurt Hatton cause he carnt punch.
