    Just found this, posted 2 days after the Hatton vs Mayweather fight, but still a great interview. Get past the pimp gear and the slurred speach, and this interview is totally on point with how Hatton was operating wrongly before the Floyd fight

    [yt]59y8SRldVgg&feature=related[/yt]

    Some exerpts

    "he's got a taxi driver in his corner, ricky hatton, and you got a boxing family in the other corner. Whos gonna win? Taxi driver or boxing family"

    "Ricky Hatton, all his people does for him, get him fit. You need someone to train him"

    Then it talks about Hattons being to absorbed in his fans.

    He's talking complete and utter bollocks...

    Mick Williamson is one of the best cutsmen in the world who happens to drive a taxi as a living.

    The Billy Graham tactics and Hatton's inability to box were the things that went wrong for Team Hatton that night. Williamson had no work to do...

    Lloyd Honeyghan is a *****.

    I think he was talking about Billy Graham when he made the taxi driver comments. Ignore the taxi driver comment and listen to what he says about the differences in Floyds and Hattons training and fight preparation.

    Surley it was simply the fact floyd is just a better fighter then ricky, and all the best trainers in the world would not have changed the result, and i say this as a brit and ricky fan

    Certainly. Floyd beats Hatton in Vegas, London on the moon, but he could have been better prepared and more focused. Look at his fight with juan lascano he looked horrible.

    he made perfect sense to me,especially about hattons fans and him lacking the guile that hopefully mayweather senior has given him.
