    He said that himself awhile ago, he doesn't care if the media thinks he aint #1 because he knows he is anyways.

    mayweather gatti 1 was for the 140 lb title...thunder vs lighting...PBF was moving up to a big 140 lb guy and alot of people though gatti might beat him and it was a masterful performance

    he is not fighting hatton...why these threads every ****ing day...and if he somehow does then who gives a **** as long as it is just a tuneup....pac could take the blood test and fight him but he won't....as long as e fights pac and berto or shane after who really cares....he wants to be seen in britain anf make easymoney like anyone else in the world would want to do...but it is not happening

    Floyd wants to fight in Britain so its possible, but I think he should wait for Khan to become bigger if that is what he wants.

    YES. A joke and an insult to the deserving contenders

    no, no one really did. no one really thought he'd win a round. a few people on the forum were speaking with their hearts not their heads but not a single person would have bet money on gatti

    Eh....it's a fight without any substance but it would be cool to see Floyd go in there with a very limited fighter in Matt and really showcase what he can do. When he faces guys like DLH or JLC.....Guys who are closer to his level and offer risks...you see a very cautious and tammed Floyd. But when he's not worried about his oppostiion and the challenges they present we see a floyd who opens up...punches in combo and pushes the fight. ala Gatti. This fight is like DLH vs Campos.....maybe a bit lower in terms of substance b/c Campos was a former champ although past his best for sure.

    95% of the folks out there gave Gatti NO CHANCE! They hoped he'd win but no one really thought Gatti would win. It was a masterful performance like the DLH vs Gatti fight where DLH destroyed Gatti in similar fashion to how FLoyd did it.

    No, it was fight with a label "Undefeated" and Hatton was not 43-0 for nothing. Happens that it is rightful to say that Hatton could not box and was known to be a guy who would punch and break all the time... Mayweather never fought at close quarters and pushed an elbow into poor ole Ricky's throat... All in all, it was a most awaited showdown but a poor fight with a dramatic ending ( for Hatton). Much worse were Mayweather - Baldomir and Hatton- Tszyu 4 different reasons.

    Haha, exactly. People for whatever crazy reason are undermining Matty's resolve - and yet again they will pay the price with their nuts.

    I expect "The Terminator" to go at Mayweathers body for about the first 3 rds, taunt him all the while... and then switch for the KO in rds 5, 6 or 7.

    He's gonna toy with May for this one. Mismatch indeed.
