Hatton: "Mayweather Bores The T*ts Off Me"

Let's be real:

In Hatton's last fight, he was fairly boring himself until the perfect KO.

Against Urango, Hatton looked sharp early but held on late when seemingly he did not need to. It got ugly.

Collazo...not a pretty fight.

Mayweather: promised to go toe-to-toe with Oscar, but hey, we all knew he'd get KO'd like that. So, he did the smart thing and fought a boring fight.

Vs Baldomir and Judah, nothing terribly exciting at all happened, except maybe the melee with Judah's camp.

Hatton and Mayweather are p4p guys, but their performances in the ring have not impressed. The wins have been big, but the performances themselves were not attractive to most fans.

They need to fight each other and settle it.

Excitement does not equal greatness...

Excitement does not equal greatness...

Never have and never would assert that.

Hatton speaks the truth, case closed.

All that interview told me was Hatton has no intention of fighting Mayweather.

[DiegoFuego]

He's talking about an announcement in early August (which means they didn't come close to a deal in these negotiations over the weekend)

He's talking about how Mayweather won't leave Vegas (which means he expects to fight in Britain, which is out of the question)

Basically, he doesn't want to fight like I said all along.

i'm with speedkillz, mayweather-hatton is going to be fashioned after mayweather-gatti, maybe not the same in severity but it will feature the same principles, floyd beating ricky to the punch and hatton's face (with his susceptibility to cuts) swelling and bleeding after a couple rounds.

sure, ricky will employ his ruiz-hatton hybrid style and try to wrestle and smother but floyd's just too fast and too smart to fight hatton's fight.

floyd wins this handsdown, by KO, TKO, SD, UD, whatever, he's coming out of this fight with a W.

thank god someone said it. thank you vers, i been sayin that since the rumor first came upon us. people really are ignorant if they think ricky aint gonna get a world class beating. 140, 147, dont matter. ricky is gonna get beat like gatti, except it might go to 10 or 11 instead of 7. who the hell has ricky hatton beat to even be considered in the same league as floyd???? an over the hill tzsyu and a very very SHOT 135 pound fighter in castillo. yea ricky is the **** alright, except take out "is the" and it will make more sense. no offense to all ur brits, but true boxing fans know mayweather is on a WAY WAY different level than hatton. understand this!

What makes any of you think this fight is going to happen?

[adamk1304]

Hatton is NOTHING LIKE GATTI these comparisons are a joke.

[ippo]

^^^ your right hatton tries to hug you the whole match.

[MindBat]

Good question...

What makes any of you think this fight is going to happen?

I don't think Mayweather, himself, expects this fight to happen.

He said he's coming out of retirement to see if Ricky really wants him.

They're talking about it, but there aren't any sigs on the contracts.

Anything can put a damper on this fight.

At least if this fight does happen, I'm sure Ricky's gonna gain some new
U.S. fans due to his cheerful personality, in comparison to the reserved DLH,
and the barely audible Baldomir.

Ricky's pre-fight interviews should be interesting to watch, and will probably give Floyd some comp in the chatter department.
