    All I know is the truth is that Hatton is going to win. Don't like to say that, but I think he is going to make this a total brawl, ((Wich for the boxing fans like us is going to love it)). But it's just I feel that Hatton is just going to work and hit Pac hard and often, The extra weight in a fight vs a fighter that going to push him around. Going to be a good one, but Hatton will win in the end.

    Hatton and Mayweather Sr. are polar opposites, personality wise. I mean, is anyone really surprised that there would be some tension and disagreements within the camp?

    They are both professionals, so I doubt that they would let a little squabbling adversely affect them too much. We'll see if this is true after tomorrow night, but so far it seems like Mayweather has been a huge help to Hatton in getting him to correct some of the mistakes he has been making his entire career. Rick is likely a much more complete fighter now than he ever was before.

    I noticed that too. Maybe, he will rehydrate and look much more healthier come fight night.

    IMO Mayweather Snr. Is an overrated trainer. I've never felt he was that good.

    There is going to be problems between the two obviously because of the difference in personalities. As long as the tensions aren't high, everything should be fine, and it is.

    There is a reason why Floyd Mayweather Jr. kicked his dad out of his life, and why Guzman and Dawson had problems with him.

    If there was going to be a split in the camp it woudl probably be a difference in opinion between lee beard and Mayweather on what type of tactics the fighter should use. I think mayweather is going to want Hatton to use his blocking skills to absorb most of Manny's aggression and then chase him across the ring afterwards. I can see mayweather problem is that I bet Lee (and to some extent Ricky) feel that the "old Ricky Hatton is the type of style to win him the day. I remember seeing an interview where Lee said about four or five times that he was happy that his opinions mattered in the hatton camp.....only problem is that he seemed more hopeful/wish/insecure when he said this than serious. My guess is that he hasn't been being a good soldier and I think he's probably be subverting Floyd the way bitchs do when they're pissed. Problem with Hatton's personality is that he is loyal as **** to his own people far beyond the point where it is producted (a.k.a. with Graham's health problems he should have drop him years before he did). And I'd be willing to bet that Hatton's playing mediator instead of telling everyone to shut it.

    P.s. what is this **** about Floyd getting pissed about payment?...this is the first I've heard about that.

    Also if Hatton is taking a bigtime beating will Mayweather do the right thing and throw in the towel or find sadistic enjoyment in it.

    I've only seen one photo of the weigh-in on the main page and Hatton looks like a skeleton around the mid-section, is this just the angle or does anyone else think this?

    How can problems in the corner not be a bad thing?Hopefully they will be in harmony during the fight so that Hatton has his mind on the fight. I do not think a problem in the corner helps anyone except the opponent.

    People post the exact same thing about Ricky looking skinny and drained in every single weigh in.

    I promise you, he always looks like that, there's nowt to worry about.

    His complexion would make anyone look bad.
