    In victory or defeat, Mayweather and his uncle have always been classless, clueless, **** talking pieces of Grand Rapids trash. Even though I'm an American, I cant possibly root for Floyd based on nationalism, because most of the times, he represent what's embarassing about America, not what I'm proud of.

    I'd rather see Floyd quit. It would be even more satisfying.

    Many a boxer has been taken down by a lucky punch. There is always a chance in boxing, small though it might be.

    We all have dreams, My dream is Hatton KO1 by landing the first body punch in the fight after 30 seconds and Floyd unable to get up with paradedics rushing in to the ring, uncle Roger trying to attack Hatton getting owned by security.

    Then comes reality
    Floyd Mayweather UD :|

    No such thing as a lucky punch.

    50% percent of boxing is throwing punches. The other 50% is avoiding them. A punch is thrown, you don't get out the way and you are knocked out. Where is the luck in that?

    Even if a guy has his eyes shut and just lashes one out that manages to connect, that is not lucky as any time a punch is thrown in the ring it is thrown to connect. Either it does or it doesn't. Period.

    I believe floyd is goin to do everything he can not to lose. I highly doubt that he has taken this fight lightly and has trained his ass off cuz he knows hatton is coming with his A game. Floyd will not lose. This is gonna be the best floyd we have ever seen. All the fights before this wasnt floyd giving 100%. His whole career he has jus done enough to win his fights and he is goin to do the same this fight except its goin to take 100% of him to win this one. Hes never fought anyone as hungry as hatton. I think at the end of the night its goin to be Floyd who shocks the world by delivering a TKO in impressive fashion. I think hes gonna gain alot of fans after this one.

    To the contrary, I think there's a BIG chance for a letdown here for Floyd. He fought and beat Oscar, the premier and most popular fighter of the past 15 years. Ricky Hatton, some little pale guy with an ugly face? That's a big drop off, prestige wise. PBF's being doing all kinds of extra curricular stuff lately, and as someone alluded to, his body language looks bored. And Hatton looks like a maniac.

    yeah they can:


    Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
    Or close the wall up with our English dead.
    In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
    As modest stillness and humility:
    But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
    Then imitate the action of the tiger;
    Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
    Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;
    Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;
    Let pry through the portage of the head
    Like the brass cannon; let the brow o'erwhelm it
    As fearfully as doth a galled rock
    O'erhang and jutty his confounded base,
    Swill'd with the wild and wasteful ocean.
    Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
    Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
    To his full height. On, on, you noblest English.
    Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof!
    Fathers that, like so many Alexanders,
    Have in these parts from morn till even fought
    And sheathed their swords for lack of argument:
    Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
    That those whom you call'd fathers did beget you.
    Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
    And teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman,
    Whose limbs were made in England, show us here
    The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
    That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
    For there is none of you so mean and base,
    That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
    I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
    Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
    Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
    Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

    It doesn't look good for Ricky when people are looking at stuff such as body language as reasons for why he'll win.

    How funny was it when Hatton had on the airline ear muffs when Floyd was screaming at him? Classic, this Hatton guy is a character and is positive for boxing. I wouldn't certainly bet my house that Hatton actually wins the fight, but dude has a chance because he will actually test Floyd's heart. Win or lose, Hatton certainly has won great part of the crowd all over the world. I still say there is a good chance that the fight goes two ways, Hatton by late KO or Floyd by close decision. Bet both and I'll bet you win ;) .
