Great footage, but that noise he makes everytime he punches gets annoying quickly.

Nice to see up close and personal. Hatton sounds primal when he is punching.

I noticed Billy was moving at one point and Ricky chased him down very quickly. Looking good so far.

I would have loved to have seen Tyson in this way, if anyone could stand there and take a fast combo of his, even with that body belt on.

That sound he's making makes me think thats what a cat would sound like if its nuts got caught in a vise. or maybe that sound is his secret weapon, to make Floyd die with laughter in the ring.

If any of you's have ever boxed your not worrying about that sound, when your trying put your fist through what the fuck your punching your not worrying about the sounds that come out your mouth. When your putting that much work in you can't help but make a funny noise, doesn't mean shit. Bigsexy I doubt you've ever had a fight.

Note Hattons footwork, lateral movement and also the angle of his uppercuts, the way he goes body head is very impressive, I'd hate to be Billy Graham in there, I bet he's been chinned quite a few times by mistake

He does move to the side very well, while still punching. Like I said in what's Hatton's best attribute, and I said his coordination. It is very hard to do this at the speed he does it at, but about his speed in general wow I've foughten guys with faster hands than Hatton... I was surprised, I thought he would be quicker. Mayweather should be able to counter him coming if he is in the right mindset.

Lol, it was annoying to me also, and it drove my girlfriend crazy

I don't recall ever hearing him do it in a fight though, or I don't remember. One of the Peterson brothers does it all night and that sh#t gets old after about 1 1/2 rounds.

Suprisingly Ricky's defence looks unchanged, this may indicate that the strategy employed for this fight will be similar to the tactics against Tszyu, simply to muffle all opposing shots and use as much of his own arsenal as he can throughout the fight. There seems to be a more heavy emphasis on the left uppercut than before and his footwork looks sharp.

After that, i suppose it must be said he has never been in this kind of shape this far out from a fight as i know that video was taken a number of weeks ago!
