I'm sorry to say that Floyd is going to murder him. I like Hatton. He has a great personality and attitude. Floyd, in contrast, is a punk. He is so hard to hit though...
Seems Mayweather's extra reach may be a problem for Hatton...the fights not on until about 4.00am Sunday morning over here,a lot of the town pubs are staying open for fight fans to watch It on big screens.Think I'll set the alarm and listen on the radio.....and listen for the police sirens when riots kick off in the pubs
The ring sizes vary over here. Sometimes they're 20 x20 feet other times not. It seems to depend on which fighter the commision is favoring at the time. You can get some pretty unfair decisions from judges over here too. Boxing is as crooked as the day is long in the U.S. at least. I would love to see Hatton knock the tar out of Floyd but I am not going to pay $70.00 to see it live. If I wait a week, I can watch it on HBO or Show Time for no extra charge.
Im getting the fight Im really pulling for Hatton, ive seen what he can do 1st hand (Mayweather too) Hatton is an old school brawler, if he can get inside to take away mayweathers height advantage, & unleash body shots, we shall see
I always get a big kick out of Hatton entering the ring to the tune "Blue Moon". All the U.S. fighters like to enter the ring to some unrecognizable gangster rap you know. Hatton's walk to the ring always makes us scratch our head.
You Englishmen have a middle weight champion as well. His name escapes me right now butI saw him destroy Jeff Lacey last year.
Anyway, I'll tip a cold beer and wish Mr. Hatton lots of luck.
Haven't seen the fight...listened on the radio....but by all accounts Hatton was tolally out classed.....fair play to Mayweather.
Hatton supports Manchester City football Club,the club colours are light blue,thats why Hatton wears trunks that colour,and 'Blue Moon' is the clubs kind of theme tune.
Middle weight champion....are you thinking of the Welshman Calzaghe(sp)?
