Floyd Knows I'll be looking to jump all over him and he won't be disappointed. His workrate isn't great. He can only work in spurts. I'll set a good pace and provided I'm not wasteful in the first six rounds, I'll do it. Anyone who says this job is way beyond me doesn't know what the fuck they're talking about."
Ricky Hatton, Boxing Monthly, November 2007
I did my avtar on photoshop before i saw that guys one :P
I was quite gutted that he had the slogan Run Floyd Run :(
Mine is from Forest Gump for people who don't know :p
HaHA!! That's some pretty funny shit.
He seems so obsessed with winning the fight...?? :confused:
Why wouldnt he be obsessed with winning his next fight? The biggest fight of his career.
Dude this AVTAR is great but THE BRINGER has on that has Floyd running and Cotto,Hatton,Margarito, and Williams are chasing him. This is some funny shit though.

Anybody CAN win but we all know Hatton won't win. In my opinion for this fight the only person who can beat Floyd is himself. If he didn't train hard, doesn't let his hands go at all, and show his best than he could lose. The Oscar fight wouldn't have been as close if Floyd let his hands go. He barely broke a damn sweat.
Floyd is 1 of the best fighters i have ever seen but to say the only person who can beat him is himself is wrong ,every fighter through out history has Rival whom they were expected to beat but styles dictate the outcome of fights aswell as ability & ill bet there is a fighter out there who we would all expect PBF to beat however he has the style to beat PBF in reallity
When u get to the top level u are talking percentages are the difference in fighs
we can sit here all day & say RJJ would have done this to Collins ,Eubank ,Benn ,McClellan ,Calzaghe etc fact is it is not gospel it never happened so nobody truly knows we can speculate but that is said opinion ,if RJJ fought all those guys i dare say he would have come up short once they are top fighters to after all
O my god Hatton ain't got a chance according to some Maywather arse lickers (yawn, fucking yawn) give it a rest will ya.
Its man against man, 1 on 1.
You Maywather fans go off as if hes fucking immortal, anything can happen inside the ring ffs.
Counting Ricky out now is like saying Clinton didn't cum on lewinsky's dress.

To say Hatton won't win...thats fine..
To say he has no chance, is just plain stupid..
He's had one close fight his whole career..People wrote him off for Tszyu and many said Castillo would be a tough fight...Neither lasted the distance yet you still say he has no chance against Mayweather..
Maybe ..just maybe you will be prove wrong yet again..:alcoholic
I wonder if Ricky really and truthfully thinks he is going to win.
Hatton is a great fighter, and a win is not out of the realm of possibility, but it seems very unlikely.
As a professional fighter, i don't think you step through the ropes if you don't fel you can win. I think he beleives he can win, and I beleive he has agood chance. Wether he does or not remains to be seen, but I think he is confident. he has to be going into the biggest fight of his life.

Hatton is hilarious.. He seems so obsessed with winning this fight that I'm actually looking more forward to his reaction after losing than the fight its self.:)
Yeah, you're right, Hatton doesn't have a chance, hey thanks man for saving me 55 bucks.
Thats the thing, this isnt a performance, this is a boxing match, its a sport, if you want to look at boxing not as a sport, but as a place where performers perform like a play or a fuckin concert, then i can see why you agree with larry asking that question.
sports is about wnning, but sport as a whole to be world famous, it has to also be entertaining. if you don't enjoy sport or find it entertaining to wathc then you've already lost half of the appeal.
Because its a stupid question that has nothing to do with the fight, mayweather isnt the promoter, what answer is he supposed to give? Seriously, thats like asking hatton
"alot of people turned off the tv during youre fight with urango after the 9th round, how does that make you feel?"
Larry did start asking that question so Ricky helped him with his hair, as seen below. And Max Kellerman was pretty rude by disparagng Castillo right after that fight. Hatton didn't cry at the press conference.
What kind of commentator/interviewer would Larry be if he DIDNT ask the tough, contraversial questions? Floyd just couldnt handle it and had an emotional breakdown.
With regards to the Larry/Floyd situation - Larry deserved the reaction Floyd gave him, but Floyd deserves to get hit by a truck (a freakin' big truck) for the shit he talks.
To the point of the thread - Hatton is right. All he said was that he has a chance if he performs like he is capable of performing. Thats just plain true. I think more people want to see this for the post-fight than anything else. Myself included. I didn't know who Hatton was or anything before this fight got announced. Now I've watched tons of Hatton fights, interviews, etc. While I'm no authority on his expertise, I'd say he has a legit chance. Oh, there's also the 40+ and 0'fer record. Thats pretty good, I hear.
I think Ricky duz em!!!! :boxing:
Floyd is pure Class that ring but Hatton closes the gap faster than any1 in the sport his a mean dig especially 2the body,and can be relentless as hell! He IS Rough but that is an asset and it will work well against the slick Mayweather. Mayweather is Favourite and i can see why - the man is a SUPERB boxer But im goin with the Underdog on this 1!
Either way Hatton will be no Gatti against Floyd - The Fuckers gonna know he's been in a fight!!!!

If he doesn't he already lost...
