[QUOTE=DIOS DOMINICANO;2870062]What is "over"confidence?

you can't have it both ways. you can't say that Floyd is OVERconfident, yet he is training like a fiend.

Yes I can...and did......Floyd will train like any professional boxer coming up for a fight....but he can still disregard Ricky as a Bum the way he does,and put the work in...thats what quality boxers do

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Floyd's mouth will not corroborate his actions. That man may "dismiss" Hatton to the public, but no way he is not working harder than probaably ever before. Much of Mayweather's credibility as a fighter is on the line. He took this fight to defend his "pride". Losing is not on his agenda, so please stop being so gullable. Floyd is working his behind off. He know's Hatton's no bum.

I don't think anyone is being GULLIBLE . The Hatton stans have offered the perspective that Floyd is overconfident.

How is your confidence excessive if it doesn't adversely impact your preparation or mindset? Isn't that just "confidence" at that point?

Is Ricky overconfident when he says that "in my mind, it is already over"? Or when he says "I've never been as certain as anything in my life"? Are those statements appreciably different than Floyd's?

You still didn't address the question.

NO!!!! It's confidence. I mean those who believe Floyd is notpreparing for Hatton accordingly. Floyd is no fool. At least not when it comes to actually getting in the ring.

That's why I asked whether or not you believed he was taking Hatton lightly.

Thus, Tarver is not an A-class fighter. Where's the irony?

I dislike Tarver for many of the samr reasons I'm not a Hatton fan. He cleans up on hollow names, and then claims greatness on the basis of those victories.

But again: I have been admittedly harsh on Hatton. RH has the perfect opportunity on 12/8 to either refute or validate what I have been saying.

Admitting is the first step.

But why are you so harsh on Hatton if Tarver had the same faults? Why isn't Hatton B-Class like Tarver?

[MindBat]

Go Ricky

I'm sure Ricky and his team know what they're up against, realistically.

They're viewing it as the toughest mountain yet to climb, so Rick will probably be overwhelmed at first not knowing how or where to start.
At least during the opening rounds.

Team Hatton, will most likely have more than two plans coming into the fight, as well they should.

If Floyd spots any weaknesses, Ricky will eventually pay the price.

Again, taking all odds into consideration, Ricky can also capitalize on a fumble by Floyd.

We'll find out in two weeks.

Tarver has a better array of skills than Hatton. He isn't as one-dimensional (yes, Graham, I know that hurts your feelings, but **** you).

And Tarver doesn't have a legion of racist fans championing his inflated worth every two seconds. So he isn't as aggravating.

Plan A: "crowd Floyd, slow the fight down, and try to wear him down with heavier shots and use your physical strength".



Plan B:?????

Plan C:?????

Lol, I hate Tarver... but he shouldn't be classed higher than Ricky because less people hate him. And I guess it's your opinion if you think Hatton's 1-dimensional, but I can't completely agree. He knows how to move as well as maul..

Carlos Baldomir: 1-D... comes forward and is absolutely lost if that doesn't work. I can't say the same for Ricky. Has coming forward been his only approach? Nah... I'll agree with 2-D.. but 1-D is a little too harsh, Dios. And so is the C-class.

Can't he at least get a C+?

HAHAHA racist? says the guy who is always putting down white British boxers regardless of what they do (Calzaghe and Hatton).... ok mate
