      I was beginning to convert, till I saw him bust up laughing when asked if he would ever give Ricky a rematch.

        Really why should he give Hatton a rematch? The **** wasn't close or controversial.

          I've always admired Floyd's boxing ability and skill, i just think his personality lets him down sometimes but made up some of that with the stuff he said about Hatton after the fight which was very honorable. fair play to him.

          Floyd said something in the earlier eposoides of Hatton/PBF 24/7 something like:

          '' if y'all love me, root for me!!, but if you don't love, you'll soon be a fan!! ''

          Dammit he had a point. Am a fan now.

            That ****** question deserved to be laughed at, if Mayweather isn't sure whether Cotto deserves a chance to fight him why on Earth would he give Ricky a rematch.

            Sky News reporters are idiots

              It was definitely a good win for Floyd, and my hat goes off to him, but i cant say that he went toe-toe with Hatton. He mainly fought going backwards, while catching Hatton with straight rights and counter-punches. He didnt actually fight going forward until he had Hatton Hurt. Regardless, good win for Floyd.

                he was never a dull fighter, you only judged him for his last 2 fights before Ricky which was Baldomir and De La Hoya, 2 naturally bigger guys that he would have threw away his 0 if he sat there and tried to knock them out, he wasn't dull he was smart, he been doing **** like the Ricky fight since the days of Hernandez and Castillo dogz Floyd BEEN a great inside fighter, he BEEN #1 P4P and he BEEN exciting.. it was a known act all along what Floyd was doing to Ricky in terms of insults and ****, Floyd is and always was a gentleman, anyone who has seen 10 or more fights of his (I have seen and own them all) knows that dude is a class act, after every fight he gives his opponent respect and it ain't nothing new but people don't pay attention to post fight interviews where he shows respect, by then they drunk and on their way home or are talking over the fight they pay attention to the build up, THATS where the money is at, he BEEN doing the things you say he proved to you it's just now you realize the game.. 100
