    Lot of banter in the weeks going up to the fight and now its all over i just want to give my respects to mayweather and the fact that he fought hattons fight and still outclassed him. Its good having a bit of banter but the truth is mayweather was and is bloody brilliant. Im a hatton fan still obv i didnt just jump on the band wagon cos i was british but all due respect to mayweather , good fight:good

    Its true tho , i was expecting to see a sensible floyd staying away and boxing his fight, but i didnt i saw a fighter who proved a point , hattons big chance was on the inside and floyd took him to school. Im reading posts now about hatton giving up and the ref was bad but thats utter bollocks , the ref was ok and hatton didnt give up he got knocked over twice lol and was ****ed. I really enjoyd the fight and will continue to watch and support hatton and watch floyd with alot more respect than i had. Im glad he didnt run for 12 rounds :yep

    Huge props for Floyd coming to fight and backing up his talk, the talk I could do without though.

    But after the DLH fight everybody I was with said they would never pay to see Floyd again, and probably never pay to see any boxing again, this fight probably did the exact opposite for the average Joe who watched.
