Will the referee allow Hatton to hold and hit against Mayweather?

[Jim Jeffries]

The ref should pay attention to Hatton holding and hitting. It's not a small detail, it's cheating.

And throwing elbows and pushing people off with elbows, sometimes in the throat is not?

Mayweather has never had any complaints about his elbows and forearms, stop making **** up..

Never said it wasnt.

Tonight's the night.

I also think the ref will allow them to just fight, he will break up the clinch but the majority of the time he will let them fight.

Who is the ref tonight?

Its Joe Cortez so he will let him hold but not cheat cause Hatton is a good guy anything illegal he does is accidental as far as i have seen and i have most of his (and floyds) fights on DVD

I don't know if he's done it earlier in his career, the beginning of my reference started in the Kostya Tszyu fight. If you've seen his fights, you know he's been holding and hitting every chance he gets. Less than 30 seconds into the JLC fight he started.

"anything illegal he does is accidental as far as i have seen"

accidental?

come on are you kidding?

what do you call grabbing a guy by the waist and spinning him around? done in the Kostya and Urango bouts

to me the above looks very intentional

I don't see how someone can accidentily grab someone by the waist and spin them .. explain that one please.

Mayweather had a point deducted for elbowing Castillo in the tenth.

Well, I'm not really concerned about the ref because PBF won't allow it. PBF dictates this fight, no question. He's the Grand Master, and Ricky is the pawn.
