You honestly think Hatton's little digs are going fold Mayweather up and get in his head ?? i don't think so somehow Mayweather is a true pro and he don't let things like that bother him and Mayweather is the one going to win by late stoppage or ud.

you are on the piss brutha... you told everybody a few months ago that you NEVER though Ricky stood a chance in hell against Mayweather, now he does? Come on dude dont be one of those guys that lets his fandom blind your opinion on things ;D
He also officially picked Mayweather to KO(!) DLH in 5 rounds, it was on the front page of the site before that fight.. Don't mean to take any digs here, but for anyone to pick Floyd to KO DLH in 5 rounds at 154, and then get stopped by Hatton at 147... Is insane.
Re: Floyd-Ricky 24/7 series!
The series will probably be better than the fight, kind of like DeLaHoya-Mayweather. Im kind of looking foward to it though. Ricky has a much better personality than Floyd so he may win over some fans here in the states.

I mean, half the show will just feel like a re-run. I do like Ricky though and I'm sure he'll bring us some laughs along with some entertaining insight.
Actually, I was hoping they would do a 24/7 with Cotto - Mosley or Pavlik - Taylor. Why? Well, for one it would be a great oportunity to give more exposure to the young guns of the sport like Cotto, Pavlik and Taylor. These guys are the ones that are gonna be around for a while.
From what I've read Cotto and Pavlik are about as exciting as wet wood is fun to burn.

I actually find Ricky really dull and predictable.
Every single interview he's exactly the same'
'Well I'm just a down to earth typical lad really no different from any of the fans. I like to think I've remained humble and kept my feet on the ground really',
When interviewed about virtually anybody else.
'Well they are just really down to earth and humble really. I think it speaks volume really for their character that they still remain humble and keep their feet on the ground despite all their fame and attention. They are just really humble really.'
:blahbla: :cwm2: :cwm33:
Nice guy no doubt but slightly less interesting than Steve Davis.
Plus at the press conferences he talks like a reality show winner going on about thanking everyone for the opportunity to fight the best p4p fighter and how he never even expected to become British champ let alone multiple world champ ::**
He talks like Peter Manfredo did in the run up to the Calzaghe fight, i.e 'he's just glad to be a part of such a big spectacle and what an honour it will be to get his a** teared apart by one of the worlds best fighters.
Floyd wins this one easy.
Re: Floyd-Ricky 24/7 series!
But "creme de la creme" and "HBO is my family, HBO is my home" never gets old?
Rick is pretty boring in his interviews though. Much funnier when the camera aint in his face.

Yeah but Floyd is at least playing a pantomime villain and getting into the swing of things.
Imagine how impossible this fight would be to sell if they both had Ricky's personality.
Floyd provokes a reaction good or bad, Ricky just says the same nicey nicey sphliel every time. I don't want to know how humble he is, or how humble Wayne Rooney or David Beckham or Marco Antiono Barrera are I want to know how he motivates himself to fight a fucking cocky arrogant twat like Floyd.
I don't think I can stand 4 episodes of hearing Hatton droll out his usual 'That says it all really', my betting is that he'll say it at least 5 times an episode.
Re: Floyd-Ricky 24/7 series!
Hatton is predictable but most are. I believe he's a genuine nice guy "just one of the lads" type but sometimes I find him a bit cringe-worthy.. he comes across twice his age and corny as fuck.
Re: Floyd-Ricky 24/7 series!
lol so now Hatton is Boring...i dont think any boxer unless there ALI can win the personality situation can they...saying that it would be good for ricky to start mouthing off like Mayweather and stop going on about the opportunity to fight him....you know get a real hype going for fight night

I know what you mean. Maybe he is a down to earth guy and the success hasn't changed him much, but he doesn't stop going on about.
Anyway, who the fuck does change after having success? I'm sure Floyd was a complete tosser before he started winnning belts.

I agree, it would've been nice to do it with 2 different fighters. However, there's no way they would ever do it for Cotto-Mosley.
They're great fighters, but they're both pretty boring personlity-wise. If they did a Cotto-Mosley 24/7, it would just be 4 episodes of them talking about how much they respect each other and how they're both working hard. Everyone would be asleep by episode 2.
Well I guess your right about that Pea but I still think it would be cool to see different types of training styles and different approaches in fight preparation. That's why I think it should be with different fighters every time.
