"I think it's an easy fight for Mayweather. Hatton is too slow. Hatton will come right at him. What can he really do? He can't outbox Mayweather. Mayweather will eat his lunch box. It's a possibility there could be a stoppage. I see no way at all Hatton can beat him though. Floyd is at the height of his game right now, one of the best in the world. Oscar fought him well, but that's Oscar. If I had any advice at all for Hatton, it would be not to fight Mayweather. I'll say a unanimous decision for Mayweather."
Buddy McGirt, The Ring, January 2008
I wouldn't discredit Buddy McGirt as a trainer, he's one of the best. But his comments do smack of sour grapes in this fight. After all, he was convinced that Gatti could beat Mayweather.
Buddy's gotta talk shit, whats he gonna say?
"Yeah Gatti is gonna lose"
I remember reading this board ages ago, i think quite a few people fancied gatti by knockout cos he was much bigger.
I picked floyd by TKO in 5.
Lol@ people discrediting Mc Girt just because he picked floyd
:lol1:

I think Buddy is right. Hatton is a raging tornado but he always do the same. Body, body, body. When you find a key to block his style he suddenly transform in a easy target.
Mayweather is too smart, he will win this fight with his brain.
Good point....
I Can only think of Ali/Listen I
where Listen was a 5/1 favorite i believe...
Liston was past his prime at that point though. Crazy to think of him and Foreman as favorites against Ali, especially Foreman with all that Ali had done to that point.
This fight is all hype. This fight should be on regular HBO. Mayweather is a BORING fighter whose only marketability is his mouth and the mouths of his training camp. They all know this, that's why they talk so much shit. He's boring to watch, yeah he's good, but boring. Hatton has limited skills, although he is tough as nails. Anyway, I see a boring fight over 12 rounds. This fight is all promotion with Oscar backing it all cuz he is looking for another HUGE payday before he rides off into the sunset.
Can't wait to see Floyd whoop Kelly Pavlik afterHatton before taking that other dumb brit Calzaghe to school.
Shame Haye has moved up from Cruiser as well cos he was next in line.
Maybe he will figth him at Heavy after Floyd whoops Wlad.
All these fights may happen if they make money.
Cos if it makes money it makes sense right?
Ya Floyd is awsome.
I would have him beating Superman on points too.
Ease up on the coffee mate.
Show me some pics of some african booty.
Shed some light.
The pics I've seen...they look like Donkey's.
You need to go over there and clock them mate, They dont show there asses like african-americans do on camera.

:banana: good...
Did you hear the dude talking about africans are ugly, is he fucking delusional or watching to much discovery channel.
No doubt man. But we can't blame him. Lots of westerners don't know History and that's a training issue. Kings from all over used to go to Africa to pull girls.
Waaaaay too much Discovery.
Skills man....yes he does. This is by far the best looking ass on here no doubt..........
