    you could say Mayweather is made for Hatton. I dont want to drone on about Mayweathers struggles with Castillo and Oscar but there fight plan IS Hattons game. Hatton aint Gatti. Roll on Saturday

    I think this is right. Most decent Americans I know rate Ricky very highly, it is just the extrememly vocal Mayweather fans who seem to hate him and you will notice how imbecilic these people are when you have been on here for a few hours.

    I mean, Strandl or whatever he's called has a hard on for Mayweather because he is rich!! Seriously, you should hear the **** he and some other fans say about him being rich and flashing money, everything is about money to him and some others, its pathetic.

    You must see that many of these people are really, really stupid and I am not saying that just to be derogatory, I honestly believe that they have either a very low IQ with learning disabilities or they are part of the anti-knowledge brigade who beat up anyone who sears glasses or may have once read a book.

    Because they are a bunch of tits

    One guy in this thread made a point I've always made, about them pissing on the heavyweight division, because all the best fighters names end in 'ko' or 'ov'

    This thread sucks ass.

    You make us Yanks sound like a bunch of ignorant assholes.

    Nevermind the fact that half of America want Hatton to win this fight, or that 100 percent of Americans are thankful that Brittain helped us to take out Sadaam.

    Just stop with this ****, please.

    P.S.- I give Ricky a good shot at beating Floyd, but nevermind that. Keep painting with that broad brush.

    ok im from ireland and i care about watching my fighters,just as i enjoy watching great american fighters and british.but please dont be so ignorant to say that the americans care about nothing outside of their own borders,how many british boxing fans really watch the heavyweight division like they did during the tyson or lewis era,how many british boxing fans really care about the featherweight divisions now.the simple fact is that wen its out of view we tend to forget about it.im sure in russia they watch a klitscho fight with national interst.its not the casual boxing fans fault,its really the tv networks for not promoting these fights.at the end of the day how many of us want to watch fights with 2 guys living 1000s of miles from us with really little connection to us emotionally bar our love for boxing.

    I enjoy these threads because it gives the British a chance to go off topic and then proceed to **** on America....as in passports, ignorance, selfish, et all.
    Really funny stuff.
    Keep it up.:lol:

    The difference is I don't think the heavyweight division is much weaker than a number of others, yet we are constantly told how **** it is. If there was a genuine American contender you could bet your life people wouldn't be ridiculing it. There is a difference between not being as interested, that's natural, and bad mouthing it because you can't compete with the Eastern Eurpean boys

    If you've seen all his fights do you honestly believe those facts? I hope Flolyd thinks those things because he'll be in for one major shock come Saturday if he does
