Yeah Billy Graham is a character

Hatton/Mayweather is the biggest fight of the year and that says something when this year we have had Haye/Mormeck Cotto/Mosley Calzaghe/Kessler

I just cant wait to see what happens with Mayweather/Hatton maybe its just me but thats the best 24/7 i have seen

Its the biggest fight since the Summer no doubt, think DLH vs Mayweather is the bigger fight - that was only in May this year.

Fair enough,what you say is correct Stujones if you mean in terms of PPV buys

But i feel Hatton/Mayweather is a bigger fight in terms of two undefeated champions entering the prize ring,fire works are coming

Let ring mag decide what is fight of the year come dec 31st,thats the time

I just loved this 24/7,i think boxing fans might see Mayweather getting bust up in this fight,i am not saying Mayweather will lose but Mayweather is going to taste some leather in this fight

Fight of the year maybe ?

I was more hyped for DLH vs Mayweather than Hatton vs Mayweather - DLH's size advantages leveled out some of the advantages Mayweather had in terms of activity and youth. This time, all the cards are with Mayweather and I just cannot see Hatton doing it.

Lets hope it is a fight of the year contender, if it beats Miller vs Woods then we have seen something spectacular.

Event of the year though should really be decided before the fight takes place and I think Mayweather vs DLH edges it - my opinion though.

Fair enough

The event of the year was DLH/Mayweather i can see no way that Hatton/Mayweather will beat 2.4 million PPV views

But hey, if Mayweather gets bust up,by that i mean one of Floyds eyes gets closed and blood dripping from his lip and Floyd storms back to win,now that is what makes a Great fight


Mayweathers trainer quote of 24/7

"Yeah i know what Ricky Hatton brings,just the same as all those other MFs"

I dont think so,we shall see

Ricky Hatton quote 24/7

"Floyds not daft,its not his game to stand and fight with me,if he does he will be eaten"


btw

Floyd may be forced to stand and fight,watch out Ricky....

Hatton just has the style to really test Floyd

Floyd Mayweather has never been bust up in a fight,sure Floyd had a close fight with Castillo but Floyd wasnt exactly taking a beating in that 1st Castillo fight

Floyds shoulder roll will be broken down by Hattons lethal hooks to the body,i swear we are going to see Floyd tested in this fight,i know Floyd gives of a gangster image and that grates with people,but Floyd having the ability to own the No1 P4P place in boxing with out being hurt so far in his career,no one knows if Floyd can take a beating and still win,the mark of an ATG champion

no one has seen Floyd getting a beating .bust up and hurt and i mean really hurt

I just think that Floyd is going to be hurt in this fight and be forced to stand his ground,you dont get to be P4P NO1,coming from a boxing family like the Mayweathers with out being tough ,the truth is ,no one has so far really tested Floyd and dragged him down to the trenches,blood, bust up eyes,pain

Floyd had it tough growing up always being driven on by his father,Floyd fights in his career so far almost seems Floyd has never been tested in the sense that Floyd has never been bust up

I believe Hatton will solve the puzzle of Mayweathers shoulder roll,by vicious hooks to the body and Floyd will be forced to fight,then we will see what he is made of

The hour is at hand for Mr Floyd Mayweather

He looked, in comparison, a little busted up against Augustus.

That, I think, was his first fight under Roger, certainly when he became slightly more offensive.
True

I would rate the castillo fight and Augstus as maybe two of the hardest fights of Floyds career,the Judah fight for the first few rounds wasnt a bowl of cherrys either

Its not just the fact Hatton throws world class body shots ,hatton throw often

Take someone like Mickey Ward who throws a good left hook to the body 2 or 3 times a round,Hatton can throw 25/30 body shots a round<busy REAL busy

Hattons on weight,Hatton was on weight 4 weeks ago,hattons going to bring it and Floyd needs to be ready,i pick Floyd in this fight though but its no walk over

Still worried that Nady is in contention. I think the ref pick could have more impact on this fight than tactics.

I'm also hoping that Hatton suprises Floyd and mixes it up by boxing as he showed he can do this against Tackie years ago, but never reallt stuck to it.

No, its the biggest fight this year imo and most. Del la Hoya the over-rated mexican-american, nah, nah. Hatton-Mayweather is far bigger in my book and alot of othersm only the Americans think otherwise cause of there small mindedness, anythin that isnt American sucks in their view...

If he does i will be doubling my bet on Ricky to stop him late

He's not the p4p worlds best for nothin'... He's no idiot of course he's gonna box and run.

He waited 6 rds against Oscar so DLH could tire out. It's not gonna happen to Hatton

Plan B is to box and run. which he will do. And could make it very boring.

I was/intend to be at both, and I think ODLH will be the bigger of the two, purely because Americans don't know who Hatton is. Whereas Oscar is arguably the most marketed boxer ever.

No one has ever seen Floyd forced to stand and trade with no option to fight,it can happen when running is not an option in a fight.

Remember when Lloyd Honeyghan made the P4P NO1 Don Curry quit and give up ?

Floyds different,watch out for those triple rights hand leads, Ricky may force the issue then those triple right hand leads will be coming or maybe Mayweather will give up and run
(i doubt it)
