I think the first 2-3 rounds will be close Ron, as Mayweather has a look as he often does. After that he will win it going away and probably stop Wicky late on. That's my prediction. You have to make a solid prediction before fight time, come on now. If Hatton even manages to run Mayweather close I will admit to underrating Wicky all along. I will never be a fan though with that ugly bum-rush style.
Thanks for the link Jimbo, & I read the article. However, I was disappointed to see it turn into the usual Ricky arse licking that every journo on these shores has been guilty of. Real arrogant Hatton quotes? Im the man for the job. The quotes she picked were made for Ricky to look like a saint- AGAIN. Heres some Hatton quotes just earlier on today that show him up as an arrogant little so & so. "Im my usual witty, sarky, laugh-a-minute self but I have not come all this way to muck about" "When I first came to Vegas, I'd walk down the strip & no-one would recognise me. I walk into a casino now & there are a dozen or so people around me at once, I live halfway accross the world & everybody knows me here" All that & pushing mayweather & doing the slit-throat gesture at him when he had all his fans around, thats why I cant stand the man. Put it this way, if I were to come on the forums & call myself a witty & laugh-a-minute type of guy, everyone would think I was an up my own arse dickhead. However, cos Rickys Ricky, his continual mouthing off & arrogant boasts get ignored.
eactly Dunky, spot-on. the throat slitting thing made him look a right muppet. as for his chat....he had the nerve to tell Mayweather to 'change the record'. 'if you don't find Wicky 'Atton in the ring you'll find him in the pub won't ya' the one place we won't find Wicky is in the same ring as Junior Witter, he chickened out.
****ing hell.what a load of nonsense,well i'll be. a fighter trash talking before a super fight.i repeat cut through all the bull**** and it's because it's the sassanach.if it was scotty or the amazing alex we'd be hanging from the rafters cheering his every utterance.like i said on an earlier thread boys,when it comes down to it, we know where we stand.
:huh get a grip Ron! Firstly my mum in English and so are a few of my closest friends. Witter and Haye are 2 of my favourite fighters. I don't like Arthur or Harrison and have stated I would go along to Support J.M.Marquez if he fought either of them in Scotland. I don't need to say anything more, on top of these truths. just accept not everyone falls for this whole Hatton charade.
Listen. My hatred of all things Hatton runs a lot deeper than some scots-anglo rivalry. I know Im no angel & can be a right ****er on here when the mood suits, but honestly, & I pride myself on my honesty, its not cos Hatton is english why I hate him, its cos hes HATTON. I cant help it, I just dont like the guy & never have done. & I will tell you this, I would swap a fight with Mayweather right now to see Hatton step in with Witter. Remember, I hve the tape where Hatton was goading Witter & actually climbed into the ring after one of Witters fights & did a dnce, & the crowd were all cheering Hatton, at WITTERS fight! Junior looked so ****in humilited & pissed off, & from that day forward I have despised hatton, especially as he did that, & then claimed Witter was a boil on HIS arse! & refused to fight him. As for you cheering Hatton? I have no problem with you or anyone esle doing that. Its just all the lies about how Rickys so ****in amazing outside of the ring & a true gent, & how Mayweather is an ******* being peddled by Hattons nuthuggers that make this Hatton hater take a stand. I dont like Hatton for the above reasons & many more, like walking over as if he was going to attack Stevie Smiths old man when he was arguing with Rickys special friend ref, Micky Vann. Im sorry if my views hurt & offends any of his fans, but its my moral duty to tell the world that Hatton isnt the 'almost angelic'(c)Ian darke character that the media & his nuthuggers try to make him out to be. & dont even get me started on his attention seeking mother who said she wants to see mayweather 'hurt'! Hey Ron, I just realised your rant sounds like an english version of one of my rants! Your turning into the english version of me:scaredas:
Yup, I can vouch for that, as in the past you almost made me have a nervous breakdown when you said you would be going to the Braehead to cheer Marquez! & there was much wailing & gnashing of teeth from my good self! & then you called me a girl in another thread if I remember correctly, those were good days man & then Scotty ****ed it all up, we became Hatton hating friends & the rest as they say is history! Its funny how **** works in here...
we're clutching at every thing going here to deride hatton.so he stepped into the ring after a witter fight and did a dance,wow.are you sure now dunky?or is it another tossing the sombrero on arthur moment.which was proved to be bull****.i couldn't give a **** really wether you ****ers hate the guy or not,it's the REASON'S for hating him,all this bull**** about him not really being a nice guy,and that he's really a phoney it stinks.ofcourse hatton trash talks occasionally,he's a ****ing fighter,where have you guys been the last 40 odd years, that's the nature of the game.i'm astonished experienced fight fans take any notice of it all.it's all bull****.do you think i get irked by the shite floyd comes out with?i like floyd he's the greatest fighter on the planet,in my opinion a real nice guy underneath all the bull****.you would think however with your obvious sensitivety to trash talk you would be on floyds case.but no it's ricky.i wonder why.
does anyone remember Hatton throwing his gumshield at Witter (who was ringside) after knocking out Joe Hutchison
Oh dear, looks like Im your bad books now, but think about this. If Hatton wins, think of the fun you can have goading the haters. We will have no place to hide! Im actually dreading that scenario very much, like will be pretty tough for me here if Hatton pulls it off. & thats the thing, I wont be gloating if Mayweather wins here, cos Im smart enough to know theres no shame in losing to the best. & Floyd is the best. Oh & you wonder why I like Floyd? Its cos I used to be a big fan of his. I collected his fights for years, I used to send away for all his fights years ago. However, I dont talk about overseas fighters much anymore cos I dont get the buzz from supporting them like I used to do when I was younger. But I still have a lot of time for the man, & thats why I go easy on him. Believe it or dont, but I have the feeling you wont, cos your nerves seem uncharacteristically on edge as Ricky prepares to face the truth...
Floyd Is down In boxing news as saying the best British fighter Is Calzaghe and says he's one of the best he's ever seen. Shall I support Floyd?
would I have got out of the Braehead alive? yeah those were the good old days. . I did apologise for ther girl taunt. by the way Dunky, the battle is raging in the main forum. The place is awash with noobs or in other words Hatton huggers who know nothing about the sport but come out the woodwork every time gool ol' Wicky has a fight. the likes of myself and Fighting Weight are mowing them down in there, thousand upon thousand. Easy peasy.
You better not max, that could tip the Hatton huggers over the edge! Scurla, You Out Sucka, Healy, Fighting Weight, my good self & RobPalmer(although Im not sure of him yet s hes still a bit of a newb, but he gets an honourable mention anyway ) if another ESB regular like yourself jumps aboard, it could be anarchy on british ESB Yer best to stay neutral! Tht way if Hatton wins they wont come hunting you down to burn you at the ESB stake like they will with us!
