Hatton v Mayweather fight pushes Spice Girls from the MGM Grand!!

RICKY HATTON KO’d the Spice Girls to seal his December 8 date with Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas.
The Hitman has signed to fight unbeaten Mayweather on the same night Posh and Co were booked to appear at the MGM Grand hotel’s 20,000-seat Garden Arena.
But the Vegas leg of the Spice Girls’ world reunion tour is set to be switched to a 12,000-seat venue at the nearby Mandalay Bay to accommodate Hatton.
A source said: “Many people regard Ricky’s fight as a bigger attraction.”
Hatton, 28, outpointed Luis Callazo last year in his only previous bout at welterweight. The IBO light-welter champ insisted he would only go to 147lbs again to face Mayweather.
He said: “It’s the biggest fight of my career.
“I am fighting a five-weight world champion, the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world. This is my dream chance and I’ll take it.”
But Mayweather warned: “With Ricky Hatton it is already personal. I can’t wait to get him in the ring. He’s definitely getting knocked out.”

Why don't they just use the spice girls as Card Girls?

Well we know Mayweather likes to say he knocks everyone out, but honestly what else is he going to say " im going to beat by a unanimous decision", it's all about hype similar to the Dela Hoya fight, he will give it the big man personna, when really its all theatre.

Just do a little online searching mate ;) they're actually not as much as I thought also. Although by now they could be a lot more expensive! I booked on the day the fight was official..there was no official venue though maybe that's why I got it so cheap. Also the only days the hotels are really expensive are the weekend! But yeah the flights themselves I was expecting to be that much. Just search for packages mate, mine came as a flight + hotel combo.

Re: Hatton v Mayweather fight pushes Spice Girls from the MGM Grand!!
Hmm maybe just maybe Mayweather does stand toe to toe against Hatton. Hopefully Hatton can take advantage over this & hopefully knock him out. Hmm hopefully!
Wow the Spice girls still exist?

He won't knock Hatton out but he will probably stop Hatton on cuts.
