Watch the weigh in vid ^ ...pure drama.

Win or lose...this is gonna be some fight.

Hatton is the only fighter i'll pay money to watch. Whether I can be bothered to stay up till 4am to see it is a different matter. If I find myself still awake at 3am i'll order it

Prediction : Hatton will floor him :D

Order it? Huh?

It's on Pay Per Veiw

PPV is a horrible word lol. I wonder whether I can find this on the net somewhere. I really want to see this one. A typically brash American being the big I am, and Hatton being utterly English looking on bemused! I hope Hatton wins, but Mayweather is a great fighter

I managed to find his last fight online, Good quality too.

How does one do that...and in the world of torrents, why?

Mayweather is gonna kill him...he's faught a lot harder opponents and he's undefeated in over 30 fights. Nothing against Hatton though...he looks like a tough dude.

Hatton is undefeated in 43-something's got to give.

Hatton himself has said he has only gotten the chance to fight the has-beens.

But in more important discussion...tonight UFC, Roger Huerta vs Clay Guida...my money is on the Matador.

I'm English, though I want mayweather to win.

And why exactly would this be?

I don't know why, I feel sorry for the black guy.

eh she's going for her abortion next Saturday \:

Amir Khan just won in 72 seconds.

Glad I didn't pay £15 to see that one.

Shame Khan won...he's a cocky twat.
Good left hook though.

I have to work tomorrow. it should be my weekend off but I have to cover ,so this is making watching the fight that little more difficult.

I know what you mean. I don't dislike him but I'd like to see him face someone who's really going to test him and maybe bring him down a peg or two.

I'm watching it, but I have to be up early for my niece's christening tomorrow morning.
So it's beer, beer and more beer for the next 24 hours, then work on Monday. :(

I'd give my right arm to be in Las Vegas tonight.
They only allocated Hatton approx 4,000 tickets.
The other estimated 10-15,000 have gone for the craic.
The atmosphere in the bars will be electric.

His attitude has changed from the humble young amateur boxer of a few years ago, to steadily becoming another Naseem.
Shame cos he seems like a nice enough guy and I can't help but feel he's trying to play the part a bit too much.

I read that Hatton puts on like 40 lbs in 2 weeks post-fight.


dood is a serious binger,
and that's something i can get beind.

Can little Ricky Hatton be lord of the ring? - Times Online

He's a real down to earth man, with a genuine personality.
The article will give you a better understanding of him and his background.

Hatton stopped in the 10th.

Can someone stop me making these threads...I'm a fuckin' jinx. :(

Was supposed to be a belting little fight though. Fúckin' jinx lol.

It was sad to see but Hatton was outclassed really. Though, I thought he may get the victory in the early rounds, just on pure agression.
