    Ill be honest :D

    I picked Mayweather by UD.

    But I picked Oscar tho. By UD. But this time im picking Mayweather by either late TKO(11-12) or UD. Most likely UD tho. Seems the safer bet.

    Many won't believe me, but I actually picked Floyd by... late round knockout. I have proof in fact. Somewhere at least, I posted my pick in another forum even saying "Floyd does most damage on Hatton rushing in, and eventually after breaking him down when he begins to land power shots in rounds 5-8, he stops him in round 9." Something like that at least, though the wording is slightly different.

    I even said that Hatton might pick up between 2-3 rounds (sometime between rounds 2-7) on aggression.

    The only thing different from my pick and the outcome of the fight was that Floyd added a extra round in there to jab Hatton (round 9). I wonder if maybe someone Floyd knew had some serious money on a 10th round stoppage, and thats why Floyd didn't press the action in the 9th round after having Hatton so ****ed up in round 8?

    Also either the people who picked Hatton are lying, or the people that picked Hatton are not posting. Don't forget that, no reason to assume lots of people are lying when they could just not be posting.

    Before the fight the Hatton pickers were FAR more vocal with their posting than the Floyd pickers. Not saying more ESB members picked Hatton..... but definitely enough that some of the people reading this thread SHOULD HAVE THE BALLS TO ADMIT THEY PICKED HATTON TO WIN!

    And many of the people who picked Hatton, picked him by KO!

    I love how the tune went from "Hatton is too big and too strong for Floyd!" to "Hatton is too small and too weak for welterweights!

    Idiots...
