Hatton interview with Sky last night

[Maxy]

Yes it will. Hatton has more everyman appeal than Honeyghan, and I also think that Mayweather is considered to be a taller order than Curry was. The internet is a factor.

Yeah, if the internet was about back then you can imagine all the Curry fans ****ing on about how he is going to destroy Lloyd. That would have been bloody brilliant to have gloated back then.

I suppose if Hatton were to pull off the upset it would rank as the biggest in British history....at least since Turpin-Robinson anyways.

[Parody]

I think Hattons fans following him anywhere and with going on dancing with the stars (so he will make ALOT of new fans) this fight could easily break 30,000 - 35,000. Just a shame there's nowhere to put them

I thought Floyd was going on Dancing with the stars...?

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

I heard theres a **** up and many people arent gonna get to go. its a shame. They should put the fight in a stadium.

Mickey,

AGAIN: Americans don't do that there. The boxing culture in America is not to pack 40,000 into an arena to the point where you can't tell the three guys apart.

The money comes from the PPV's and the casino site fees.

I don't know how someone can be a fan of a sport and not understand the basic economics that drive that sport.

Was watching an interview on Sky last night with Ricky Hatton..here's a few things he said..


- Had 25,000+ ticket applications for allocated 3,900
- Started preperation three weeks earlier then usual
- Ricky say's he's gonna jump down Floyd's throat and take his heart from him
- Ricky's very confident and relaxed and belives a win against Floyd will cement his legacy

He has a bit of weight on him but it's really just on his face,

Ricky keeps talking. He will look like an idiot on Dec 9th.

He is talking SO MUCH ****.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Yes it will. Hatton has more everyman appeal than Honeyghan, and I also think that Mayweather is considered to be a taller order than Curry was. The internet is a factor.

....and we know what you mean by that....don't we?

He is talking SO MUCH ****.

what so its ok for floyd to talk **** but not ricky god ur so up ur own ass arent u.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

GUess so. I hear that alot of Limeys are going across jsut to soak in the atmosphere and watch it in the bars and casinos around the actual venue.

I reckon they'll be a kind of football - England away vibe going on. England on a rampage in Las Vegas.

Mick,

The weather in Vegas is much less appealing in December than in May/June. And December is very much a "down period" for Vegas outside of the fight weekend.

So the Brits can own the joint... but they need to be aware that they won't be hanging around poolside.

Seems like a long run for a short slide.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

what so its ok for floyd to talk **** but not ricky god ur so up ur own ass arent u.

December 9th, dutchess. I WANT Rickety to keep bragging. And I want the Brits to put BUCKETS of cash on him.

Don't stop talking, Rick . You'll look a right plonker when Graham throws in the towel around the ninth round.

[bdevils]

what so its ok for floyd to talk **** but not ricky god ur so up ur own ass arent u.

People complain everytime Floyd talks ****. So what are you talking about?

[SkillspayBills]

Good to hear he's getting an earlier start.

I could have lived with more than 3 weeks but anything is positive.


I believe Hatton is going to seize this opportunity and prevail.

A win against Mayweather will rank as one of the great wins in the history of Boxing. It will more than cement his legacy, it will move the planet.

I am saving up the points just for you, I will have more than enough come betting time.
It is good to see Hatton fully focused though, he should have enough to at least challenge Floyd. He should end up with about 4 or 5 thousand tickets, he is pushing his luck to get any more though.
