If its one thing im not looking forward to its Hattons annoying fans and that band of his..I like Hatton alot and have nothing against him but why do they allow that traveling band of his to play during the fight?
I appreciate it. It can be annoying, yes, but it definitely adds to the atmosphere. I was at the Calzaghe-Hopkins fight and although the Welsh fanbase wasn't nearly as much it still made the fight more interesting.
I seem to remember after the Mayweather loss alot of his fans were calling him shite, past it, rubbish, needs to quit but they were just ones who dont follow the sport proper I guess.
Not all fans are perfect.
A few reasons.
1. To let him know you still support him, and hes not lost his fans.
2. To let him know its not the end of the world, you'll pick yourself up and go on to bigger things.
3. They travelled half the world and want there moneys worth.
4. It just good fukin support. It really is true that americans are glory hunting sing only when your winning fans.

Arre you for real, its called support its what you do your pick you fighter or team up when there down or losing. Many a sporting events have been won and lost due to support from the crowd.
lol
His was waved off and the fight was over and they kept singing! WTF was that?
LMAO!
I'm just mad because Floyd couldn't silence the crowd??? lol
It's one thing to egg on your fighter, cheer him on, throw some love and show your support by singing and chanting , but they should know when to shut up!
Their man was down and out and they kept on singing and chanting? WTF?!?

you're just mad Mayweather couldn't silence the crowd. The fans appreciate Ricky and know that he gave everything he had (or was allowed to by cortez) and will support him in defeat and victory. Enjoy the Pac fight, the Hatton army will be singing, cheering and playing music!

I just hope that If Hatton does get KTFO that band stops playing, they are pretty bad.
If I remember correctly they continued to play one ricky hatton after Floyd KO'ed him?
fuk me? make sure you're firm in doing so :D

Europeans? Have you ever seen and American Collage Football game? I think College Football here in the US puts European soccer fans to shame!!
Fight songs every five minutes, the crowd chanting, did I also mention that the bands are often a hundred members strong?
Understood, but they need all that to amp the crowd up lol..But this is boxing. Leave the bands and cheerleaders at home i say.
It's quite entertaining at first, and I do appreciate their show of support for their favorite fighter, but it's just irritating when they kept on singing and chanting even after their boxer just got ktfo. I just don't get it...
