Dhoni's English Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Ricky Hatton is one of the most affable guys I've had the pleasure to meet. His gym is the same place where I weight train (Betta Bodies in Denton) and he's always got time for everyone. But I'm afraid I fear the worse for 'The Hitman' in this fight. IMO Ricky can't allow it to be a boxing match. He must go in chin down,hands up and throw plenty of punches. He will take a lot of bumps, but's got a good chin and his best chance in this fight is to grind down Mayweather. Ricky needs to stay close, working the body every chance he gets, and land a perfect shot like he did when he beat Jose Luis Catillo earlier in the year. I agree with Predator_05. The fight will go the full distance. C'mon Ricky please shut this disrespectful Yank up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Predator_05 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Don't judge Mayweather by the image he presents on TV. He is a shrewd business-man - he acts that way so he can hold the limelight in order to sell himself and his fights to the media. He and his camp appear the way they do so that they can generate the kind of hype which will maximise the value of the fight. He knows how to manipulate the media. HBO did a special on the fight recently, and showed some footage of him with his family. He looked like a completely different person. The "talking smack" and narcissm of his is all a charade done for promotional purposes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayweather actually came across as a funny and classy guy, especially when he and his entourage donned United (on the Manchester leg of the tour) shirts in front of Hatton's baying crowd.:D But the quote about him being disrespectful towards Hatton was actually said by Hatton himself. Basically he was saying he was being disrespectul in the private time they had together, when the cameras etc. weren't there. Should be a cracking fight though fella.:thumbs_up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhoni's English Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 anybody want my "expert" opinion on this mother of all battles ? How about you Predz ? :D IMO Ricky can't allow it to be a boxing match. He must go in chin down,hands up and throw plenty of punches. He will take a lot of bumps, but's got a good chin and his best chance in this fight is to grind down Mayweather.
