Not really. I don't particularly like the man from things i heard and seen of him on tv. I look at lad's like Watson and feel for them. It's not his thought his bro's been able to offer him more. He's had a good career for someone with limited ability but when he talks he just thinks he's better then what he is. So i like to see him beaten tonight because i'm not patriotic and don't support guys cos they believe in there self. I'm just not a fan of the man and tbh nothing i've said is wrong tbh. I never said anyone said he's world class. He feels he is....IMO he ain't and tonight i hope i'm right..Don't quite see the problem.
Listen i praised him the other day when talking to someone about taking this fight and many a man would of pulled out but i don't rate him as a boxer and i think he needs this bad tonight. He wants to step out of bro's shadow. He's got my respect...doesn't mean i have to support him or believe he's good. Tonight i feel he finally see he's not at this level if he genuinely did or does believe that. I think he does believe that and that's fine.....just don't think he is and hope Saul beats him. The HDL are out in full tonight...
Mand, its nothing to do with Watson. Matt Hatton has taken advantage of the situation he finds himself in,thats all. He's not depriving Watson of this fight.....
But you know what bothers me in that situation? Every fighter has a little excuse when they get beat but people only jump on the guys they don't like for doing it.
Can somebody explain to me briefly about Alvarez. Did they steal him from Scotland? How did/does it happen? Big Dunk will do his nut in if thats the case.
he's a million miles from world class thats plainly obvious but he's got beleif in himself and he's not just out for a lie down and a payday.cant we just wish the lad well?
Tbh i don't remember even saying that. I just re-read the post and all i'm saying is he be beaten by them. I'm not complaining at him taking this fight...or i don't think i have?. I just don't rate him or believe he's at that level and he's not my type of underdog. So he doesn't get my backing. If he was a Watson or Jennings he probably would get my backing but Matthew's not my type of fighter.
Jonny i never said i don't wish the lad well. But i like to see Alvarez win. If Hatton pulls it off i be stunned and impressed and admit i was wrong about him as a fighter. I just prefer to see him lose because i prefer Alvarez to win in long scheme of things in boxing as well as fact i like to be right and i never rated Matthew .
