Lets Make It Clear Hatton

how many times does Manfredo need to take a shot without returning fire and defending himself before the ref steps in? Admitidently i will agree, that the ref called it off to early...but only because Manfredo should have got the mandatory 8 instead as the ropes were the only thing keeping his arse of the canvas. I think the ref saved Manfredo from alot of unneccesary punishment, in a fight he was never going to win.
I'd say the U.K has some of the most fairest boxing officials i've ever seen and definately on a par with Yank shows. True... if you was talking about sending this fight to Germany or Eastern Europe then i would be scared about the officials.
There is just as much chance as Hatton getting a poor decision in America as it is PBF would get one in England. I.E very slim. I find it quite insulting that you've got this opinion that English boxing is ultra corrupt in comparison to the U.S. It isn't.
Besides, they'd get judges from different nations, or atleast one yank, one brit and one other.Comment

Ricky fighting a 147 against Floyd is not really a big deal in my mind for Team Hatton.Im looking around at the moment, apparently ray hatton has said that Hatton's comment about floyd on sat were 'tounge in cheek'
Unoffical at the moment, but i read that somewhere on BBC forums from a guy who is worried about the fight not happening,
The feeling at the moment is, if Warren is involved, it could be some tune up fights at 147, apparently team hatton might not want ricky to jump straight into 147 again like he did last time.
Again, this could all be rubbish, but Hobson never mentioned what weight his offer to mayweather was at.
so look out for this.
Ricky fighting a natural 147 pounder at 147 is a big deal and we saw that against Collazo but Floyd isnt a natural 147 pounder so the problem that existed for Collazo will not be the same as the one that will exist for Mayweather.
When it all shakes out Ricky will fight Floyd at whatever weight Floyd wants him to fight at.
Floyd gave all the concessions to Oscar in the last match and I think after the victory Floyd views the accomplisment as a passing of the torch so to speak which means he is going to DICTATE everything if this fight is to take place.Comment

Oh ****... wait a minute.. i've just realised.
When you said "PBF won't get a fair decision" it was a deposit in the excuse tank.
Ok.. ok.. we'll have the fight in Las Vegas. Cos i can't be ****ing arsed with the "Oh PBF got a **** decision abroad" excuse if Hatton wins. I can see it now... just click on NSB and change "costillo is old and spent" with "Mayweather got a bad decision".
I just had a vision.Comment

Its kinda true, our judges arent that bad, but clinton woods Vs Glen Johnson was a shocker, so im not sure, but dont confuse Uk with friggin Germany or something, we can score impartially........sometimes.how many times does Manfredo need to take a shot without returning fire and defending himself before the ref steps in?

Right so i wanna get you on record, now,
If Hatton doesnt fight mayweather next you will say?
Because if you read what Hobson says on the BBC, they want hatton's next fight in the UK floyd or not, although that could be all talk.Comment

Haha, you got a point with Clinton. But then again - i never said UK judging was perfect - but i did say it isn't any worse than Yankee scoring. besides aren't Clinton and Johnson fighting for the 4th time soon?! haha.
Besides, if PBF fought infront of a British set of judges surely his style of techical punching and skillful boxing would traditionally appeal to British judges 'tastes' who we are always being told favour this in comparison to the aggression and brutal scoring Yank judges? - just food for thought.Comment

Hatton offered Floyd 10 mil to fight in the uk, the fight will never happen in the uk. Hatton knows this and if he wants the fight he will stop playing.Comment

On the record I shall go!
1) I dont think Ricky should fight Mayweather, Im a fight fan therefore I want to see the best fight that can be made which is Hatton vs. Cotto.
If Ricky decides to go fight a pushover in Manchester the Im not gonna kill him for it but I doubt HBO has sunk the money they have into him to let him go fight some tomato can, Im sure they would approve Junior Witter but with Hatton's stature currently he would be a fool to take that sort of risk against a tricky fighter like JW.
BTW-Hobson and Hatton's contract are up and if I was a betting man GBP will sneak in and snag Ricky, I have alot of bad things to say about GBP as of late but they did promote the **** out of Oscar v. Floyd and Im sure Ricky would love to be involved in a similar type fight camapign.
I was at Castillo v. Hatton and if it wasnt for 11K Super Fans from England then me and about 1000 Mexicans would have been the only ones in the arena, Hatton loves his hometown crowd but I gotta believe he wants to be a part of a BIG LEAGUE promotion and he has got to questions if Hobson can do that for him, right?Comment

Lets really make it clear
Let's really make it clear about Hatton. He's a good fighter and an boxer, but he's not ready for Mayweather or Cotto. He beat up a washed up Castillo...not Castillo about 3yrs ago. He's never really convinced me...he needs more time to develop.Comment
