The ring was too small
The ring was too big

Not enough Brits in the audience

Ricky got paid less than Floyd
Did you see how bloody Ricky made Floyd's gloves?
Ricky's water was spiked
Ricky was assigned the wrong corner
Ricky's nut shield was too tight
Floyd's boot tassels were distracting
Floyd was too fast
Everybody knows Ricky cuts
Not enough vasaline on Ricky's face
Ricky didn't bring his lucky charm
Floyd didn't stand toe to toe like he said he would
My PPV cut off
I couldn't find the remote
I didn't watch it cause I knew he would lose
My friend cancelled PPV at the last minute
There was this awesome movie I couldn't miss

I hate Dancing With The Stars

[HattonCOOL]

fair enough

[squealpiggy]

I've been fairly objective in this and if Ricky loses, hell, he was the underdog. If Ricky gets torn to pieces then perhaps he wasn't the fighter I thought. If Ricky loses a decision then perhaps Floyd was as good as I thought he was. My pick is still a Hatton decision.

fair enough

Haha, decided not to question Dios's sexuality with this post anymore?

Excuses the Hattonettes can't use if their man loses:

1) Floyd was just a runner. He hit and run.
2) The judges just gave it to Mayweather in his hometown
3) Ricky fought in Las Vegas. They should fight in Manchester.
4) They fought at 147. Ricky is not a welterweight.
5) The ref would not let Ricky fight his fight.
6) The punchstat numbers are all wrong.
7) Ricky hurt Floyd in the 4th round lol omg hahahaha
8) If Ricky didn't get cut or swollen...
9) Floyd was cheating with his elbow...
10) We didn't Floyd to start trading
11) The ref stopped it too soon. We want Smoger for the rematch.
12) The ring dictor should not have stopped it...

Excuses the Mayweatherites can't use if their man loses:

1) Ricky was the bigger man
2) Ricky fought dirty
3) Floyd had a short training camp ...DWTS
4) Floyd underestimated Ricky
5) Ricky headbutted Floyd.
6) Floyd had too many distractions
7) The judges gave it to "the likeable" fighter...


Mayweather offered Ricky several fights over the past couple of years. Ricky has been fighting on TV. We know exactly who he is, what he does, and what to expect. Floyd said that Ricky is "the most overrated fighter of the past 25 years". Floyd said he is very confident.

Hatton has said that he and Graham have had Floyd on their radar for YEARS. They said they know exactly how to beat Floyd. Ricky said "there's no chance in hell " that Floyd beats him. All of Floyd's fights have been on TV and PPV. Ricky has attended several FMJ fights in person. We know exactly who Floyd is, what he does, and what to expect.

Both fighters are in their prime. Both have been active and fought this year. Both fighters are healthy. Both fighters are being paid well and have good management and promotion. Both fighters have clean personal lives free from major distractions.

This should be a short thread. NO EXCUSES FROM EITHER CAMP.... NONE!!

If you can think of any other excuses that the other camp might use, post 'em. But please don't turn this into another argument thread. There are plenty of those.


IF YOUR MAN LOSES, JUST TAKE THE HIT. BE A MAN.

NO EXCUSES ON DECEMBER 9TH. NONE.

I agree, but you know you are going to get at least ten of each one of those excuses in one ****ing thread. Among 100 threads none the less.

[Fox McCloud]

Fair enough. Gayboy!

The original post said something like:
