    Was the beginning of the final 24/7 show. It's like they finally showed Mayweather camp getting serious. I knew all along that the entire thing was just to sell tickets. Floyd is the most finely tuned and toned athlete in the sport. Always in shape and never un-prepared. But they kinda only showed fooling around and joking when it came to his workouts on the show. Alot of casual folks were starting to lean toward Hatton because of this. But when that final episode started, damn Floyd was all business. Call me silly, but him wearing that doo rag just made him look badass.....and Floyd rarely looks like a badass. But anyway, it was at this point where I thought to myself, 'damn Hattons gonna get whooped' :bbb

    Too bad I missed the last 3 shows. I never bought into any nonsense indicating he wasn't serious though.

    No I didn't either. But on the show, they constantly showed Hatton training his ass off and Floyd just kinda going through the motions. Also, I posted before the fight that I really think Floyd is acting, and don't think he is an ******* at all. Alot of what he says doesn't roll of his tongue, it seems unnatural really :deal

    Floyd is always in shape so he can afford to look like he's joking for the camera. Hatton had 30 or 40 pounds to lose. He couldn't afford to bull**** for the camera. I know you knew what was up though and that's why I can't believe you made that bet my dude. lol

    That check hook was ****ing beautiful.

    Hatton and his team didn't seem to be serious enough about Floyd.

    If you see the thread I made the bet on, I was actually posting how Floyd was gonna beat him :lol: Then I got carried away, and thought the small chance of Hatton winning would be worth the pay off of Presscot writing me a "I love Beware" article and putting up an avatar and location of my choice......damn was I wrong :verysad

    I'm a massive Hatton fan, and really wanted him to win, but subconciously i knew mayweather was a step too far. The reason i say this firstly is just by watching the build up clips for the fight. It showed mayweather taking apart world class operators like Gatti and Baldomir, when it came to Hatton we had Eamonn Magee and Ray oliviera!? doesnt really balance out does it?! Now i know you cant judge who will win on build up clips but that was the point i kind of knew Mayweather may be a step too far for Ricky.
