Hatton Mayweather- Official Build Up and Fight

[Chris]

I'm not sure what ounce they are. I think Floyd favours the big gloves to protect his hands. I could wrong though.

Just reading 10oz. Seems the gloves favour Ricky but the ring Floyd.

They said on the coverage earlier on that he should be in the ring just after 4 but i suppose it depends on how the undercard goes.

There seem to be a fair few scousers in Vegas for the fight, i've seen quite a few being interviewed and then they just went to the pub near the MGM and interviewed 2 scousers.

I saw that. One lucky guy had a ticket while his mate had to watch on the CCTV footage. He must be ****ing gutted.

If he's a true scouser he'll bunk in anyway

I think he could reallistically become the top Heavyweight in the world in a few years. He has the skills and at the higher weight he has the power as we saw earlier on in the year.

I rate him highly. He's vulnerable at times but that makes fights more exciting.

I agree, but also think that this vulnerability will decrease the more he fights.

He's got a cracking punch on him too; as soon as he connected for the knockdown in his last fight, you knew he wasn't going to get up!

I guess Floyd's thinking is that with the big ring Ricky might not get to use the full advantage of the gloves.

Mayweather always has the bigger ring and he uses it so well. Hopefully Ricky manages to cut him off but Mayweather is really slippery.

I went to raid the cupboard and I'm out of crisps...more Jack Daniels and no food it is then.

I'm going to be hammered come fight time because the more nervous I get them more I'll drink.

Good lad

I called into Tesco 24 on my way home from the pub i went out to kill a bit of time i was driving so im back home now for the build up and watch a bit of the other fights.

Im glad i have food in the house or i wouldnt be a happy camper.

Im gonna make a big mother ****er sandwich once i get the energy

Mayweather is really slippery.

He's a ****er aint he? You try and get near him, you get a couple of lightning punches on you then the ****er has gone.

[Chris]

I'm running on empty now, just need the undercard to start

He's got unbelievable footwork and has great ability to 'dissappear' when he's backed against the ropes.

That's one of my fears tonight, Hatton steams in, head down, throws a few shots that hid mid air and gets caught on the counter. How often have you seen Floyd do that to his opponents?

I'm still holding hope that Ricky will do this though. In reallity I probably split the fight 70 - 30 in Floyds favour.

It'd be a night to remember if Ricky does it though. He just has to try his best to get close, cut the ring off when he isn't and stick to the game plan because there's no use steaming in against Floyd. That would just be playing into his hands.
