Hatton and Mayweather Sr. at Odds? Inner Team Turmoil?

[Welter_Skelter]

Arguments on the job??.. they are part of life.. Arguments in sports and entertainment??? we are talking EGOs here.. these things happen and this is being way overblown or it's a ploy..

[GRUSTLER]

I think it's some BS. Neither guy would risk it or let this out so close
to fight time without some kind of plan to execute. This fight is too
big for the both of them to fall off their game plan. I think their
working on the element of surprise. If you ask me, Roach and Manny
are too over confident. In the article it said "After Manny beats Ricky
then we'll sit down and talk about training Hatton" If that's not feeling
yourself I don't know what is.

I think someone probably watched 24/7 and saw that bit where Mayweather was late for training and made up some story out of it. Most of the details in this story (Roach wanting to train Hatton and such like) are probably just made up. Maybe I'm wrong but I think someone just jumped on the Mayweather being late bit and tried to make a juicy story out of it.

Lol at the conspiracry theorist saying Mayweather put this rumor out there so the Pacquiao camp gets over confident.

Why would they put this out now after all the training is done? If they wanted Manny and his camp to get overconfident, they would have put this out or come up with something even better. Training is done it's pointless to put something like this out right before the fight. Is Manny going to put his chin out there ala Campbell because Hatton was unhappy at Mayweather? The rumors are real and won't change the outcome of Manny winning this fight.

This is strange alright,
i mean if there REALLY was some **** goin on in the hatton camp why would floyd say it???

A big news story is sweeping Las Vegas and it has the media in Sin City talking. There are heavy rumors of possible inner turmoil in the camp of Ricky Hatton. He faces Manny Pacquiao on Saturday at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. There is talk that Hatton and new trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. are at odd, and possible trouble between Mayweather Sr. and Hatton's co-trainer Lee Beard. [details]

No one would be ****** enough to get Roach at this stage.After the fight yes but discussing before the fight that's rubbish.I have no doubt Hatton is not happy ,it shows on 24/7 and worse still Mayweather hates Manchester.He hates the food as well so that could be a factor.

Mayweather showing up late could be a sign of other problems.They are obviously not agreeing on many things.The sad thing is this will take away from Manny's victory should Manny win,excuses will pour in.There is no doubt Floyd has improve Hatton and if he's training Mathew then he has done a tremendous job.

like i said, if "training camp is over," it makes no sense for this **** to come out if it was real.....if there are problems, you usually hear about them DURING camp, not after all is said and done.

i heard floyd sr. AND ricky on the radio today, and they seem SUPREMELY confident.......if the stories were true, you'd have heard about this earlier. sr. AND ricky are BOTH ****y, if something was going on that would hurt their chances of winning, this would've made news already.....

They say winning cures everything.

this could have huge implications for the fight. Not for the preparation, but the infight advioce that Snr would be sending Ricky's way. If Ricky is at odds with Mayweather, then there is a possibility he'll tune him out during the bout and miss out on some prudent advice from Snr. I like Senior, but he loses a lot of fighters. Chad Dawson only stuck with him for a fight I believe because of personality issues, and I don't know of anyone for whom he has trained their entire career.

He trained Oscar for a while but being late is unacceptable,especially when you are on 24/7.Sr is very unprofessional.His own son ran away from him.

I wouldn't read too much into this. People have arguments all the time about various topics. If anything it's a ploy to scare up the odds for Ricky Hatton being an even bigger underdog bet than he is at the moment(3to1). Think about it, why would this come up JUST NOW? It's not even two days before the fight. I bet $300 today on Ricky Hatton knocking out Pacquiao, and I sincerely believe that he still will, turmoil or not. This is simply a ploy of some kind or another, another gimmick for people to get dramatic with. I refuse to buy it.
