Hatton vs. Mayweather.

[Captain Beefheart]

Love Hatton, but my money is on Mayweather.

When is this fight?

[Moshe..]

Mayweather's definitely going to win, at least on points. He's almost three inches taller. And the extra reach of the jab should be accumulatively deadly. Mayweather already has more stamina anyway. HAtton has the body shots but his only chance is a knock out. But my god mayweather has a degenerate personality!

You still haven't answered my maradona video, you are so lazy.

Fight is going down tonight. Pay Per View.

Got Mayweather for the same reasons Moshe alluded to. I thought Collazo exposed Hatton pretty bad his first time in Vegas and the only reason he won on cards was to set up bigger fights like this one.

For Hatton the only chance he has is "cutting" the angles, and going low in the body, clinching and not letting Mayweather have separation or he'll 1-1 him all night long. Hatton can throw some reckless punches at times, and lord knows what could happen if he lands one.

But my god mayweather has a degenerate personality!

His boxing style doesn't sell. The circus personality is the only route he has. He seldom gets hit. His punches are quick and accurate. He is fast. But he is also very boring. His counter puching is effective, but it leaves the fan with a lot of wanting once the fight is over. He is not as strong in these higher weight classes as he was prior.

I don't see this fight matching the hype, although I do hope I'm wrong. I can't stand Mayweather's personality, but his speed is just too much to cope with. I was unimpressed by Hatton against Juan Urango and Tszyu, imo, was on his way downward.

[Moshe..]

I haven't been following boxing for years (don't have sky television). Used to be so obsessed! MAyweather claims he's the next sugar ray robinson, what a muppet. I read he has a good straight right, slashing right, super fast jab, perfect defence. Also 6 inches longer reach than hatton. HAtton's got nothing on him!

Thanks, didn't know how you could do that, you're such a computer geek! I'll be in bed unfortunately - we're nine hours ahead of vegas and i got to hand in an essay on monday, what fun. Started it this morning! But here in england we don't even have television highlights. It's physically impossible to follow boxing in england, what a useless country. I know you latin types love it - i agree, it's one of the best sports!

There is nothing on your computer that can't be fixed with a simple phone call to my voodoo priest and some of my eyelashes.

Apart from Hatton the best boxer from the UK is Calzaghe. There are rumors about a potential fight with Hopkins next year at Yankee Stadium(Jew York). That would be pretty big:

**Heh**
I knew Hatton wouldn't have a chance it was funny to watch...

[Captain Beefheart]

I had Hatton up by 2 pts till around the 6th round, he was being the aggressor and not letting Mayweather get any separation, except for landing a straight right flush everytime he came forward. All the clinching really didn't help him at all because Mayweather would just elbow him back.

Right around the 8th Mayweather turned the page on him and Hatton sort of lost it, to the point where he threw 8 punches in the round and didn't connect any of them.

Last round, pretty much telegraphed a left hook straight into Ricky's chin. Fight over.

It's always good to see sports stars from the Uk go down :p
