    Now THATS a kick ass question:lol:

    There are several thousand Hatton fans already got tickets, & there are supposedly about twenty thousand more fans who will be 'invading' Vegas, & will be filling hotels & **** to watch the fight, IF they cannot get a hold of a ticket themselves.

    & as we know, theres loads of Hatton fans who post here, on the most popular boxing forum IN THE WORLD!!!

    so, one would expect a big load of replys to this thread, or are the Hatton nuthuggers here not as nuthuggy as they pretend to be?

    hmm:think

    Over to you Hatton fans...

    Damn, I was like minime to Suckas Dr evil there! Or as his new name is now, el Doritos or something like that. Sucka, why you change your name? Sucka was catchy man. Its like me changing my name from Dunky to Carlos. It just dont feel right.

    :lol:
    yes Dunky, I think it's what known in sport as 'fair weather fans'....that is fans who are happy to go along and support Wicky in the MEN Arena against Steven Smith and Carlos Vilches, singing the song I posted above....but when it comes to a real test like this, well it's another story.
    You know I went to see 'Atton-Oliveira in the Docklands in London, and got dogs abuse from all around me for cheering on the old, shot and overmatched man from New Bedford near Boston. Now I could not give a **** about that, but the same 'fans' also booed Oliveira at the end, despite bravely hanging in beyond the call of duty. It was like seeing an old age pensioner get beat up by a bigger and younger bully.

    as for the username...for some reason I now need to type in the username every time to log in, and the old name was a pain in the arse to write. I could and maybe should've just changed it to 'SUCKA'. Or 'El Doritos' :lol: :thumbsup

    I was successful in the UK ballot and therefore have tickets for the fight. I was lucky enough to get my 1st choice of ticket.

    Starting to long forward now as it isn't that far away. I will be even more happy when I have my tickets in my possession.

    I think thats a bit unfair, what other UK (even world) boxer would take 30,000 fans half way across the world so close to christmas? I think "fair weather" is unfair too - it aint cheap going to vegas, especially when cheap tickets alone are half a months wage.

    I was very surprised the fight was announced so quickly after the Castillo one. I was then surprised that it was scheduled for December. In June I thought that if the fight were to be made it would have been Feb-March time.

    I actually think the number of people estimated to be going is hugely over hyped. There are still lots of tickets for sale via various web sites (if you are willing to pay a premium). I also think a lot of people who have CCTV tickets will in fact get into the arena by purchasing tickets on the night, thus leaving spare seats in them.

    I hope so (surplus tickets) as im looking to buy a ticket. Not sure if i want to pay £1000 per ticket though. Its all one big risk really, need to work out whats best to do - end up in vegas with nothing, pay over the odds in the uk, wait till just before the fight and try and get a cheap one off a tout, risk it being a fake...

    If your talking about my post TL, then i was just having a wee joke. I dont expect all the Hatton fans on ESB here to fly over to Vegas, especially as theres next to no chance of landing a ticket anyway.

    & as for me, if Scotty landed a dream comeback fight against Manny Pacquiao in December in Vegas(wishful thinking I know:D ) then even though I would be crying with desperation to go, theres no way I could as I simply couldnt afford it. Too close to christmas. So the cries of desperation would turn to tears of frustration.

    There you go any Hatton fans who were maybe scared scared of admitting you wont be going to Vegas on this thread, no need to be afraid to say you wont be there anymore:good

    Terry. What they mean when they call you a nuthugger is that you hug the nuts of your favourite fighters, not your own nuts;)

Your alright in my book though:good

    I'm going over for 5 nights with a few mates. I've got no ticket for the fight yet, I'm going to see what the score is over there, it can't be anymore expensive than it is over here. I've got tickets for the closed circuit showing at the MGM as a back up. I havn't been on holiday for 3 years so even if a don't get fight tickets it'll be a nice jolly out with the boys.
