Glad to see he's not suffering any ill effects from that punch

I must say, I was a little worried last night with the way he was reacting on the canvas. Yo everyone,I just read over on boxingscene that Cotto vs Pac should be brought to us by December. Maybe sooner, can’t wait for that one

Glad to see he is growing his double chin already… ;)

It is very good to see him up and about. That shot of him when Bayliss turned his head was pretty harrowing. I can’t count myself a big fan of Hatton, but I was genuinely worried that he was badly hurt.

Not to be mean or kick a man when he’s down, but if Ricky does retire I would suggest someplace tropical with plenty of sunshine. The glare from these dudes “moon tans” is blinding me.

He seems ok, can’t take too many shots like he did.

Keep firing Assholes!

Glad he's okay

and enjoying some much deserved R&R.

He looks better than the other guy.

Is that a shiner on him?

If you were thinking, you wouldn't have thought that.

yeah

But Matthew actually fought for more than six minutes so that’s inevitable.

Glad he is OK, but this has to be killing him inside. If he doesn’t retire, I hope he can get some quality wins over a couple of decent opponents before he hangs it up, if only for his fans sake. Would probably be better for him if he just walked away though. He gave it a go trying to join the super elite ranks and just couldn’t get it done. No shame in that, but Mayweather and Manny both destroyed him. There just isn’t anything meaningful left for him to go for. And no one will ever forget the knock-out he took last night (or the one Floyd delivered for that matter.)
