Hatton Vs Mayweather done....ALMOST!

[Joe King]

He started to dance when the Mancs were singing 'There's only one Ricky Hatton' and wore the Scum top and started to wind up the crowd when they were singing 'Who are ya?'

**** of the biggest kind. Here's hoping Hatton smashes him.

Craig Phillips Reporting: Ricky Hatton was given a huge welcome home by his fellow Mancunian’s this afternoon, as thousands braved the heavy rain to cheer their idol on at the Manchester town hall.

Hatton took to the stage with Promoter Oscar De La Hoya to promote the December 8 clash and thanked the fans for turning out and said he hoped many would be able to make it to Vegas.

Speaking to Sky Sports Adam Smith on stage De la Hoya said: “we all saw what Castillo did against Mayweather. And we saw what Ricky did to Castillo. I’ve studied the game for years and believe me, Ricky Hatton will beat Floyd Mayweather.”

De La Hoya also fulfilled “a lifelong ambition” when he started a “there’s only one Ricky Hatton” chant.

Mayweather did his best to intimidate Hatton, even wearing a Manchester United shirt on stage. He also addressed the crowd in his usually confident manner, saying: “today it’s called Manchester Mayweather.”

Mayweather made sure he had his own entrance to the stage and demanded to be the centre of attention. Although he wasn’t given a warm and hospitable welcome from the strong crowd.


In a humorous statement with some colourful language Hatton talked about being in Mayweather’s company for the past few days, saying: “I’ve missed my son over the past few days, but not as much as I expected to. Because I’ve been with another six year old all week.”

When Mayweather tried to jokingly dance when the crowd sang Hatton’s name, Hatton responded by saying: “if he dances like that on Dancing with the Stars, he’s in big trouble.”

When asked about Mayweather’s back foot defensive style Hatton had yet another humorous answer, saying: “we all know he (Mayweather) likes to run, so I’ve got two special sparring partners in Carl Lewis and Forest Gump. We know he likes to run, but in the end his back will hit the ropes and he won’t be able to dodge my punches with me on his chest all night.”

Hatton concluded the event by promising victory to the crowd saying: “I’m proud to be from Manchester and everywhere I go I try to do Manchester proud, and come December I’ll do you all proud by beating that clown.”

Doesn't sond like Ricky's that scared of Mayweather. I'm looking forward to this one.

I just saw an excellent clip on Sky. Ricky and Floyd were standing face to face. Floyd was giving his usual verbal in Ricky's ear about how he was going to knock Rick out. Ricky's response was excellent. "When was the last time you knocked anyone out?"
Mayweather never knew what to say.

Is it me or is Mayweather the biggest dick alongside Pissitano Ronaldo?

He is ten times worse

He may be a dick but he's the best boxer on the planet and he knows it.

I hope Hatton batters him senseless.

I hope Hatton batters him senseless.

If he can get on the inside regularly without blocking to many punches with his chin I think he will. Mayweather hates being pressured and when he's pressured he's at his worst.

Whatever the outcome it's going to be a great fight imho.

I've got very mixed feelings about the actual quality of the fight. I think that it's going to be akin to a wrestling match. A lot of holding from Hatton.

Mayweather will frustrate Hatton and capitalise when Hatton starts to become wreckless. I hope i;m wrong though. I'd like for nothing more than Hatton to batter Mayweather all over the ring for 6 or 7 rounds.

I think this has a full 12 rounds written all over it. Hatton if he does the right things at the right times, and pressures Mayweather, the judges might just swing the result in his favour.

I don't see knock out though.

This is how I see the fight going. Hatton will try to do what Castillo did. If Hatton cann keep this sort of pressure up and keep Mayweather on the back foot he has a good chance of winning.
