Hatton/Mayweather 24-7 HBO

[Joe King]

Here's your coat...now **** off.

You mean raincoat or trenchcoat?

Anybody else watching it in a pub or bar in the UK? I've been invited to a 'private party' in my local pub in Sale. It normally closes at midnight on a Saturday so I've got to get there by quarter to then try to stay awake and reasonably sober by the time the fight starts around four hours later!

I can't wait TBH. Ricky Hatton must be the only Manc that Scousers like (apart possibly from Morrissey)!! It'll be weird for once supporting the same side as a load of pissed up Mancs but by around 2 in the morning no-one will give a **** who you are or where you come from. Almost everybody in Britain (and maybe Ireland as well) will be 100% behind the Hitman...

He's the decent Manc type. I hate Mancs but Hatton seems like a nice lad and a good craic

At least he's from East Manchester and supports Citeh and not the other shower...

He trains just down the road from our office in Denton. I bumped into him once (literally) at the Council House a few years ago and he seems a decent bloke. I think most lads relate to him 'cos he likes a few pints of the black stuff and a game of arrows. The way he balloons in between fights endears him to most of us (cough) not quite skinny fellas!
