Ricky Hatton look a little...drained?

[amat]

Yeah he balloons but Duran was another guy famous for it and it never hurt him much. Lots of people do it. Toney did it at the lower weights and it did catch up to him eventually but as far as I know Hatton has been ballooning since his amateur days so it can't be to bad. At least I don't think.

As for him being at 147, isn't he like 5'8? How tall is Floyd? Because the 147's are getting huge now and Paul Williams is just an absolute freak of nature. I'm wondering how the guys below 5'10 like Hatton, Cotto and Floyd are going to fair against the Paul Williams, Antonio Margarito's and Joshua Clottey's of the division. Especially Williams. That guy just blows me away. Is he really facing Margarito? Because he could throw a serious wrench in that potential Cotto - Margarito matchup.

He's just 5'6"

Urango & Castillo are both 5'8"

Wow, that is the definition of weight drained. God, he's this weight drained a week away from the fight? He should have stayed at 147.

after seeing what hatton looks like on the hatton site and east side boxing im pretty confident.the main concerns to me was the injury, that now seems to be gone .he looks very strong and fit.its hard to believe that he fights at 140lbs.he looks happy and alert.hopefully he doesnt have to lose to much more wt. im sure he is keeping very hydrated so that the last day or so he can cut back on the fluids and work up a good sweat ,and make the wt without affecting his electrolite balance .as long as ricky is well prepared mentally and physically thats all we can ask,and that seems to be the case based on the photos and reports.he looks very musculer and strong,and he will need to be against the mac truck like urango.this fight is extremely exciting matchup and it will be very interesting to see how it unfolds because urango is a awkward and well schooled southpaw that is looking for holes in rickys defense.which hatton has many ,and urango has one punch ko power and will be dangerous tell the bitter end.

Was just thinking that myself mate
He does look dangerously thin imo but his pre fight fry up will have him back to normal in minutes

Fuck me!!
I can see right through him...

Anybody else think he looks like the 'Powder'

Look what Cotto did right after he looked like a corpse for the weigh in. He moved up. Hatton should really consider going up or retiring if he doesn't wanna fight @ 147.

His fight's not for another 10 days. Why'd they take him down so light this early? Strange. Not that any of it will matter against a S*** fighter like Urango.

True that. If Ricky Hatton decided to become a crack whore a couple weeks before fighting Urango I'd still favor him. I know everyone likes to create a little drama, but it was Hatton's decision to go back down AND to fight a bum named Urango. No excuses if he doesnt win in good fashion.

I don't think he looks too bad. His face is where the stress of losing weight is showing the most. I like his shirt though, lol he's got a good sense of humor about himself!

did you see pbf shirt though, hatton wasn't eating burgers in that one he was eating punches juts like the gatti shirt pbf has. haha

I didn't realize Nascar can take so much out of a man. LOL

hahahaha cc!

I think he'll perform at his best on fight night. He does look bad though! haha


Weight Draining is Long-Term, if he's doing it, and he may not be, we never know...
but if he is, then it won't affect him until about 2 years or more from now. Remember he's still a very young man.

Yeah! I can't help it but like Hattons fitghing style at 140, I just hope he can get back on track an show his talent.

The hip problem is getting worse.

Hatton always looks like that, I don't see any difference, just because he's pale and pasty people think the weight drain is bad, boxers who boil down always have very low body fat % but seriously, ricky has complete faith in his camp and they've never let hi down. Kerry Kayes (his nutritionist) is an absolute genius, ricky can eat as much as he wants in camp, it just has to be what kerry tells him to eat, and he always makes the weight. This fight will be no excecption, you'll see it in his body language at the weigh in he's 100%.

Here's the link to all the photos, you picked the worst 2 there, he looks absolutly fine.

[yoitsdan]

I honestly don't recall seeing him look like that ever before.

Yeah, Hatton's never looked like a pale white ghost before. What's with all these early excuses already?

As long as the man in the ring isn't making excuses then they ain't excuses VD.

Nothing like going overboard is there. He looks like he always does come fight time IMO. Its been a while since he fought so perhaps people have become conditioned to seing him look puffy round the gills.
