My Observations on the weigh in... (been burning so excuse the typos)
The Stare down and shots of them standing side by side.
Hattons stance; Hatton's leaning back with his arms open at a wider angle - this gives off the image that he's wider (bigger), while manny is up right with arms at a much more closed angle than Hattons. Even with this hatton doesn't appear much bigger than manny obviously i'm aware that they both will now rehydrate.
Size (Height wise): Absolutely nothing in it, even though hattons leaning back i still dont think theres any kind of advantage for hatton there. Have we seen manny and hatton stood close without manny's flatcap pulled to the brow (which makes you apprear smaller in height) and Hattons fishermans on his head (which by co-incidence can make you appear taller)??? just a thought.
Manner and the way there carrying themselves?
Don't read anything into Mannys humble/nervous looking approach, obviously with how many thousand english fans going crazy and the whole hype of it would be a little daunting... unfortunately come the sound of the bell tomorrow night that atmosphere will only be a backdrop to the main event as when elite boxers fight it doesn't make a difference cos they all know only the two guys inside the ring count.
Hatton is most definitely confident and up for this, much to the same level as the floyd fight but this time with the manner that he's truly prepared. Remember in his mind he knows this is what makes him a great, Hatton is focused.
138 v 140??
Nowt to look into here both fighter have never had making weight problems and both are capable of rehydrating up to 10lbs.
A point that I've been dwelling on:
I might of missed this but in all the interviews with hatton that i've seen I cannot remember where hes actually spoke on in detail about the fact that manny is a southpaw and how he plans on dealing with this. As mentioned on the countdown Mayweathers pad work as all resembled an orthodox fighter - Is this Jab he's been working on primed for a southpaw???
ON THE REAL THOUGH.... I CANT F***ING WAIT FOR THIS... IT MUST DELIVER! - no ****.
