Ricky Hatton at the press conference promoting his upcoming fight with Floyd Mayweather…

A few days later the promotional circus finally reaches Manchester via the US; by now, the tension between the two is real. After going nose-to-nose in LA, with Mayweather whispering more sour nothings to him (“I wish I was in prison with you, so I could fuck you”), Hatton counterpunches on live TV: “I’ve missed my six-year-old son for a week, but not as much as you’d think because I’ve had the fortune to spend the full week with another fucking six-year-old.” (The embarrassed Sky presenter explains that the boxers have been under a lot of pressure and apologises for the language.)
(Hatton continues…) “If my dad was on this stage with me now, the first thing that would go through your mind is how has this man produced a fucking world champion. He’s about five foot tall. He’s the only man I’ve known with a full-length photo for his passport. It looks like he just fell off a fuckin’ keyring. Honest. He could hang-glide off a Dorito. God knows I love him, but I don’t like midgets. I had a girlfriend leave me for a midget once. I never thought anyone would stoop that low… Me mum is a different story. I love her more than anyone on the face of this earth, but the best way I could describe my mum to you is… a fuckin’ monster. That’s where the left hook comes from. She’s frightening, my mum. Scary. Her Rice Krispies in the morning don’t go, ‘Snap, crackle, pop’, they go, ‘Ssshhh, she’s fuckin’ coming.’”

From this Observer article http://www.guardian.co.uk/weekend/story/0,,2210856,00.html - worth a read.

I can’t wait for that fight

I watched a film of Mayweather working out for an earlier fight. Oh my! He’s fast like hell.

Yup, he’s fast and very talented.
Ricky is hard as nails though and it will go the distance. If Mayweather doesn’t bring his A game to the ring Ricky will give him alot of trouble.

6

Ricky is in for it. He wont ko ricky but he might give that face a good tagging.

7

Ricky’s fight against Kostya showed he is a fighter and won’t take a backward step. Mayweather might have to knock him out to beat him.

8

That was a way past his prime kostya. If ricky had met him in his prime it would have been a different story.

9

Agree. But being an Ausie I would. Ricky showed some mongrel though.

I was told by a doorman the worse ones to fight are brawlers because they don’t hurt. Ricky reminds me of those.

I don’t think Pretty Boy’s got much KO power in his punches these days. He will probably win almost any decision if the fight is close.

11

I did not realize the dates

I told yall, kinda. He gave that face a good tagging and knocked his ass out. Mayweather took him to school and failed him!
