Will you buy Hatton vs Lazcano?

If the two world title fights on the undercard are decent match ups, then I may buy it but if its just paulie and someone else defending against bums then theres no point.

 

I'd guess it'll be Pauli against a decent but beatable opponent. They won't bring him over to showcase and then have him beaten.

 

I have never moaned about it. Witter grizzling whilst hiding in Hatton's shadow has been amusing over the years, but he is WBC champ now, and Hatton's legacy will always be called into question if he fails to fight him.
Even this fight is still not worth PPV in my opinion.....

 

As a Hatton fan, I'll be pissed off if Witter isn't at least signed by the end of the year. Witter has a good belt, the fight is a natural.

Realistically I'm hoping for Lascano, Paulie this year and Witter early next year.

 

No!

 

i will get it to cheer on lazcano

 

For christs sakes whats everyones problem..... They've got the rights to NASCAR- surely that makes it ok. lol ****ing sky..... useless bunch of satelite ****s.

 

:yep That did make me laugh like anyone in Britain gives a **** about Nascar.

 

Sky are shite.... I've got 469 channels and can never find anything good to watch..... says a lot really...Sky need to get themselves in order. Who actually gives a **** about NASCAR? wANKERS.

 

100% agree with everything you said.

I've been to a number of fights in the USA and across Europe and I've had a great time at all of them except one. The one which was not good was Hatton/Mayweather. The reason I did not like this was because there were hoards of british men drinking in all of the bars in their chav sports/leisure wear.

I will not be going to Manchester nor will I be buying it on PPV because I think the fight is a rip off as he is fighting a C- class fighter.

As you've said, the arena will be full of football fans and lots of mancs so I will happily give them a wide berth.

There are a lot of cheap tickets for the fight but I am always concerned about these football stadium fights because unless you get a really good seat your view much be shite. Out of curiousity, I checked out the ticket costs and where you'd site for those prices and to get anything half way decent you'd need to shell out £200+. Only a complete fan boy would be willing to pay this sum of money to watch Ricky fight a C- fighter.

 

As stated by others, will probably end up with a few of us going round to somebody's gaff and paying a couple of quid each to watch it. I think sky are taking the **** big-time though. When they first started this pay-per-view lark it wasn't too bad. I remember getting Calzaghe-Reid, Woodhall-Nardiello, a Mickey Cantwell title shot (can't remember the opponent), Morales-Chacon, Carr-Randall and DLH-Quartey on a tenner bill. Nowadays it seems like they think it's okay just to stick one star name on against an okay but nothing extraordinary opponent and charge everyone for the privilege.

Thank God for Setanta, a station which has made a real investment into bringing some top quality boxing to the British public. I was a grateful watcher of the Haye bill last week and will be so against when Manny and JMM do battle this weekend! Not to mention JC-Hops, Woods Tarver and all the other great fights mentioned!

 

Those Chav football fan thugs are the bane of boxing.

An absolute disgrace. Hatton draws them like flies to **** as well.

 

your damn right there jeff
