I'm as big a fan of Ricky as most of you lads but this aint gonna be a fight that he has much chance... if any of winning.We have to hope he has got everything right in his preparation and that Floyds overconfidence gives him an edge...Comment

I have a feeling this will turn out to be a good fight. It will be nothing like DLH cause Hatton has the stamina to go after floyd all night. Both fighters will bring out the best of each other on Dec 8th.Comment

PBF is bigger,faster and heavier and is the best P4P boxer on the planet....Don't get me wrong tho Ricky is as good any fighter in the world,but I think its gonna be tough for him....I'm just saying how I see it.Comment

Hatton is so nervous and the fact that people can't see through it is hilarious. He is nowhere near as calm and sure about himself as Floyd, if he has to consistently hype himself up like that an entire couple months before the fight. There's a new report on him and his feigned confidence every other day. He talks too much.Ricky Hatton says Floyd Mayweather Jr will have to 'kill him' to maintain his standing as the world's best pound-for-pound fighter.
The Hitman will put his perfect 43-0 record on the line against the man who has reigned supreme in five weight categories.
Mayweather defeated Oscar de la Hoya last time out at light middleweight, but is returning to welterweight to put his WBC title on the line against Hatton.
But as 29-year-old Hatton nears the event in Las Vegas on December 8 he insists there is much more than a single belt at stake.
Incentive
He told Sky Sports News: "I don't see a man that I want to beat more than any other, all I can see when I look across at Floyd Mayweather is that number one pound-for-pound fighter on the planet title that he holds.
"All I see is that title that I'm going to rip from him. I've never been more certain.
"He'll have to kill me and stop me breathing to stop me beating him."
Proof
Despite struggling in his only previous step up to welterweight against Luis Collazo, Hatton is adamant he will backup his bullish predictions.
"My sparring partners have been absolutely sensational so things couldn't be better," he added. "My timing is perfect at the minute.
"It's the biggest fight of my life and I'm in the best shape that I could possibly be.
"I'm ahead of schedule. Really I've just got to be careful I don't overcook it now."Comment

Why are you getting mad at him for being honest?
