I believe somebody once created a Heart vs Head thread to teach people to seperate those two when picking a winner. Alot of people pick fighters based on who they like not based on who they really think will win.
    He gave one viewpoint to the sun (british newspaper) and the other to the news of the world (british newspaper)
    Theres no way Joe will say publically that Floyd will win even if he believes that, him and Ricky are mates

      Maybe you're reading too much into throwaway comments.

        Joe wouldn't say that in fairness, the man paid out of his own pocket to go and see Ricky. It'd be in bad taste. Witter and Woods backed Floyd though!

          Witter can't stand Hatton and Woods is Witter's stablemate, an Ingle fighter, they tend to feud with Warren fighters.

                  I think Joe knows, more than anyone, that this fight will probably be a replay of Calzaghe-Lacy. Joe knows this in his heart but he still wants Ricky to win.

                    Alot of american personalites also pick hatton to beat Mayweather, But when a person from the U.K does it then its blasphemy..I dont understand.

                      Yes he will be rooting for Hatton but by the end of the day he knows what's up. Good call Joey.
                      Well, at least someone isn't a total idiot.

                      I'd say Calzaghe is saying what most other people this side of the water are thinking .... everyone wants Hatton to win but he's a heavy underdog, and rightly so.
