    You think so ? PBF is one of those boxers who is always conditioned.

    It is going to be similar to the Gatti fight, Floyd will be too fast for Hatton.

    Yes, but your opinion is highly biased. Im not saying Hatton is going to win, because i think he'll lose a clear UD, but Hatton has some tools that will trouble Mayweather early before Floyd adapts and takes over the fight in the later rounds. Floyd and Hatton will be similiar in strength, i dont see either guy really having a great advantage in that department.

    Oh, and LMFAO at Ajose being similiar skilled to PBF, it isnt even close, they may fight with a similiar style but PBF is the better fighter in pretty much every department, by quite a distance too.

    Im a Witter fan but have to say I think Hatton is dealing with Mayweather's mind games pretty well and turning them around. In that face off where they touched heads and Ricky pushed his head back at Mayweather I thought Floyd looked a touch intimidated and seemed to lean back before speaking his usual ****.

    Also Calzaghe is dealing with Hopkins' trash so well when he said something like 'he wont beat me by throwing 12punches a round' I just thought go on son. Apart from Tarver I havent seen a Hopkins fight in ages where I havent been snoozing. The guy runs around and it gets called masterful by the Yank commentators and fans.

    As for the wanker gesture, anyone shocked by that probably feinted when they saw the Mayorga v Vargas face off with the plastic barrier.

    Keep dreaming son as you obviously don't know anything about PBF the perfect professional unlike the Heinekan and Guiness drinker Hatton. PBF is in magnificent shape as usual and is in the mood to make statement. Hatton is going down. Believe.

    Why do I have to be biased in favour of PBF. What you need to check is why so many are baised in Hatton's favour. If you believe the rubbish some are spouting you would actually believe Hatton's talent is up there with Roberto Duran and Julio Cesar Chavez. Sorry I apologise Hatton is much better and skilled than these legends is he not as proven by struggling with Thaxton, Magee, an old Vince Philips & Tyzu, Urango and Collazo. In fact Hatton has defeated great fighters atbtheir peak like Ben Tackie etc. Hell what do I know to question the hitman's credentials after all he is basically Superman.

    I think Ricky went a bit over the top trying to "be the man", trying to intimidate Floyd, and especially, trying to humiliate him...he hasn't done it with as much passion as som people thought, and certainly with little, if any malice; he's simply trying to get the crowd cheering for him on the night - making it a home fight for HIM, to get under Floyd's skin, to make him lose his composure, to push him into getting into a brawl, etc...it's a gameplan; it's not personal...however, Floyd is professional and intelligent enough not to fall for it much, at least that's the impression I got...no?
