The WEIGH-IN PROVES Mayweather has won the MENTAL war.

[Azteca]

Floyd has clearly got under Hatton's skin

Obviously.

But so has Hatton. He's tried what Duran did. He's riling up the troops agaisnt Mayweather. He's trying to goad Mayweather into a fight.

[niceguy45]

lmao, you guys are funny, mayweather was the nervous one,
he wasn't like that not even against oscar, he was jumping up and down, doing warm-ups, he is facing the truth, imagine being in his home-town all routing for hatton, i mean you can say that fight was in england and it wouldn't be a difference, where was floyd's fans/crowd ?????????
he was alone with his crew.....o man this is gonna be good

[bishop2006]

Hatton is taking a page from Duran's book.

Duran was the same way as him in press conferences, except more of an animal. He would talk alot more **** and he riled up his opponents.

To this day I still believe that he goaded Leonard into a toe to toe battle.

Let's hope Hatton does the same.

Lol i was thiking the same,Hatton said the fight has to resemble Duran-Leonard 1,the way Ricky was angry and acting was similar to Duran,all the shoving,even the body motions when he was standing over Floyd and looking to the crowed where the same

Mayweather has been rejected a few times in his life, he didnt like being rejected in his own turf tonight for sure.

But what does that lead to?

Think about it, and think about him a few months ago, and him now,

Think about what you saw of him in training,

Think about what he has said.

You do the math.

[AntonTheMeh]

who cares who won the weigh in
it's a ****ing weigh in!

[OldSkool]

You guys are crazy. Mayweather was visibly reeled. when have you ever seen him take a back seat at a weigh in. i think he genuinly feels threatened for possibly the first time in his career.

[GazinManchester]

THAT ***** **** HIS 5000 DOLLA SHORTS HE PUSHED AT HATTON AND HATTON MADE HIM **** BACK, ENOCH WE LOVE YOU MAN.
HATTONS SIZE MADE GAYWEATHER **** SIMPLE AND HE KNOWS HE IS GETTIN WHEELCHAIRED.

ahahah 'rivers of blood' speech

[Azteca]

Technical Skill.

Let's hear it..

[Chipp3r]

Angry.... Or more fired up than he has ever been before?

Let's not forget kids, this is Ricky Hatton from England fighting the worlds greatest fighter, the best boxer on the planet, Floyd Mayweather, Pretty Boy Flord, the biggest challenge, the biggest fight, the biggest night of Hattons professional, no **** that, Hattons LIFE. This is it for Hatton, it don't get much bigger.

All those intense fans behind him, the buzz, the energy, it's going to effect Hatton differently than usual.

Of course Hatton is going to act differently.

It's Floyd acting differently thats most alarming, because as he says over and over, he has done this ohhh soooo many times before and Hatton is a nobody come forward brawler on the level of a Gatti.


Of course Hattin is going to act differently.

Exactly.

People are talking like Hatton is always calm and collected before a fight. While most fighters relax, lie down and listen to a bit on their MP3 player an hour before a fight, Hatton is warming up, being cheered on by his mates with his favourites songs blaring out the stereo. Hatton is always like this, it's on a larger scale here because of the calibre of opponent, but Hatton has got into Mayweathers head here.

Mayweather isn't swearing and talking trash no more. He's shut his mouth, he brough his kids out on the stage at the weigh in to calm the crowd down, or possibly subconsciously protect himself from the abuse.

[Italian Dragon]

You can sugar coat it any way you want. Hatton is behaving differently. Mayweather, the crowd, the buzz, the center stage, etc etc.. have GOTTEN to him, which gives Mayweather the mental edge.

When your emotions SHOW, then you've lost an edge. Boxing is about controlled aggression, and when you're visibly emotional you're no longer in control of it, it's in control of you.

Hatton's lost round 1.

Hatton was as fired up and acting pretty much the same as he was tonight the last time he was facing his biggst challenge. The last time he fought the best fighter on the planet. You remember that fight, right? Where's Kostya now?
