I swear I saw Ricky walking with a cane when he was visiting Riyadh for the Fury fight or was that just me?

Unbelievable…another reason why boxing is in the state it’s in now…this dude wasn’t that good when he was in his prime and now he’s being led to the slaughter house for the dollar

WTF

Hatton has probably aged the WORST of all fighters, like seriously you know what hes looked like for the last 13 years. the ***

He looked surprisingly ok in that exhibition vs barerra a couple of years back.

As long as he doesn't even think about fighting anyone serious it's probably a good thing for him to have these fat camps once every couple of years

What do you mean "not that good"

He was a multiple time world champion who only lost to p4p number 1's

Yeah he was pretty "good"

Collazo was not a P4P number 1.
Castillo was way past his prime.

And when Ricky stepped up the level of competition, he got beat up.

Congratulations for being 1st ballot unanimous inductees. Oscar was voted the 1 on 1 champion for doing rails the size of school buses

Hatton also retired Kostya Tszyu. More than pretty good, he earned his HOF status.
