    Any other good ones? I usually miss weigh ins :(, someone link some good ones. This wasn't even May vs Hatton, it was May vs Britain :). So hype

    this was one of the best all round boxing events in recent years
    the whole build up
    the 24-7's
    ricky staying cool and laughing off floyds antics then snapping in the last week
    tyrese getting booed
    angelina jolies face when all the yobs were making noise
    floyd abandoning the 50 songs and coming in to born in the usa cause it was blatently UK vs US
    the perfect ending punch

    the list goes on and on.....
    their was only one thing that dissallowed the whole event from being perfecct
    **** BIAS JOE CORTEZ REFFEREING (would not let rh fight in the only style that gave him a chance)....

    Yes I think this is one of the best weigh-in recent years. This really makes you pumped up for the fight

    incredible. That way in was more exciting than alot of fights.

    The speech at the end by hatton too.

    Hatton deserves HOF for me for his contribution to the sport if not his actual in ring acomplishments. All those people coming over from Manchester to cheer on hatton. As anything like that ever happened before on that scale.

    i couldnt wait to see floyd beat up ricky who got his ass handed to him by collazo in his only fight at 147 to which he said" i am not a 147 pounder" and he dropped back down to his division.... but floyd being floyd knew damaged goods, knew he wasnt a welte, knew he got to keep his "o" and no floyd could take it. what a shame of a fight

    that weigh in was also where Calzaghe and Hopkins had a go at each other, isn't it?

    Yet despite all that you couldn't wait for ricky to get beaten up?

    Do you worry what that says for you as a person that you'd cheer on the chicken cherry picker floyd over soeone like Hatton who just wanted to fight the best and take on the biggest challenges, even though he was out of his depth,

    Ass handed to him by Collazo??????

    Coming on strong and winning a couple of rounds at the end of a fight does not mean you beat someone...jeesh!

    Hatton clearly won the fight!
