    Say what you like about the mans antics out of the ring, but he seems to always deliver with his fighter by getting the best out of them. I had the pleasure of watching the fight live in a local bar, and Ricky Hatton looked far more impressive in this fight than how he looked against Lazcano, last time out.

    Props to both Ricky Hatton and Mayweather senior. :good

    Yes, he certainly had him in exceptional shape and has worked hard with Hatton.

    Its about time Hatton had a proper trainer, I mean hitting a human punching bag can only get you so far...

    Mayweather Jr. is what he is because of his Father. Sr. knows his stuff and is able to direct his fighter with few words between rounds.

    Compare that to McGirt. "Common baby"
