Hatton V. Mayweather

[Brauny Blue]

I think Hatton is going to have to do very well to get near him, class act imo.

Head says Mayweather, heart says Hatton.

Ricky has a chance but will have to work non stop. I worry for him about the cuts he sustains. Just hope the ref dosent spoil it by stepping in too quickly. Would love to see him spank the yank in his own backyard.

The way i see it Hattons got to step inside him early and go for the body. In recent fights he's stood toe to toe to prove he's not a one trick pony, just hope he goes into this fight with every intent to play to his strengths and not to convince himself he's something he's not.

Mayweather is a class act no doubt, but i wonder if he has ever been in with such an in your face fighter as Hatton. Mayweather likes to punch from distance and uses his feet to keep away from trouble. I hope Hatton can get inside and do some real damage.

I hope Hatton sends the big-headed cnut flying.

Me too......

Don't think i've been as excited about a fight since the Benn v Eubank ones.

5live's coverage doesnt even start til 4am so I doubt the fight will start before 4:30am personally.

I doubt there is an actual start time like a football match

Not set in stone no but it seems nobody is expecting it to start before 4am at the earliest.

 

[Willlow]

Surely its easier just to watch the repeat at 9am?

Most definatley, you wont get any of the guff then either, just straight in to it.

I'm watching this round a mates gaff. Really nervous for this one, it could be a classic in the mould of Benn v McLellan.

My plan for tomorrow is lunch time football, down the Walkers, Evening football, boxing, sleep till 4am hopefully watch Hatton win. Then drive back to London at about 6 in the morning and go back to bed for a few hours. Sweet.

At least your day will improve once that is out of the way

I intend to be steaming by the time I get there. I've got a pass out as the Mrs is otherwise engaged. So not even 90 minutes of Carl Cort getting booed can ruin my day!

 

[Darth Vodka]

I'm going to watch it in one of the Casinos as I don't expect the actual fight to start until about 4am - so the Casino will be about the only place open.

I phoned them up to check they were showing it first though.

Gala round the back of The Shires?

I don't plan on watching it until breakfast - and so if anyone is randomly dialing numbers on their phone and telling people the fight result (for a drunken laugh) then please don't phone 0121 455 7644. Thank you.

 

[Billyjof]

Not long now. Shit result today at the Walkers feeling depressed so having to give myself a bit of a buzz to get through till 4am. Shambles, Champers and Relentless mix (Well i'm not flash so more like Asti).

Come on Hatton.

I think it's a bit daft to give him Sports Personality on whether he wins this fight or not. If he looses I'm expecting Hamilton to be given it. Hamilton has done magnificently well in his rookie year, but he has a whole team behind him. Hatton and Calzaghe don't have the science behind them, they have their own mentality to make it to the top. My vote would be Calzaghe he's been at the top of his game for so long.

want hatton to win, but amazed at the 4/1 odds offered for mayweather to win before points.
