Both look in tip top condition. Good to see Paulie has a business haircut going on. I think at his best he can push Hatton, if he had power he'd win IMO. The fact he cant hurt Ricky too bad will mean Hatton wins. But it will be closer than a lot of people think.
It would be funny if Paulie went Kojak style for this fight. The polar opposite of his Milli-Vanilli tribute.
Both looking the biz & in very good nick ... maybe a little drawn look about Rick ... lets hope the shifting up and down in weight in between fights dont find him out .. I hope not at least....
:badass::badass::badass:
Is Ricky allergic to sunlight? That is one pastey mofo.
You probably don't want to hear that it was almost 80 farenheit the other day here in Cali....:cool: in fawking November.
Anyone else get the feeling that Paulette is going to over compensate for his bad hair day and walk in on Hatton as the fight goes on?
The expression on his face in that pic is hilarious.Looks like mom just told him "NO,Go to your room" !!

But on a more serious note, if these two do not put on a show, their stock should drop tremendously and I think it will be a stink fest and a 12 round hug fest.
Man, those guys are little.
I think Ricky looked the best he ever has at a weigh in he was pale and a bit gaunt but he always is but he was ripped to the bone you could see every muscle but what impressed me more is he still had a bit of chunkiness to him good arms and stuff good old Floyd snr i say if he fights how he looks he will be awesome tonight.
Both fighters look in decent shape. Looking at that other thread and seeing how Hatton and Paulie looked a few months back its amazing seeing how different Ricky looks. Paulie looks the same, he's obviously always in pretty good shape.
Come fight time Hatton always looks pretty gaunt, but I dont think it was an issue to make the weight.
good... no stupid hair styles.
Both look in Great shape for the fight.
Gonna be interesting to see what improvements Flyd Snr can bring to Hattons style/ability.
I'm not reading too much into the physique of either fighter. Bruno often looked amazing prior to a fight yet suffered as fights went on. I do think Paulie seems tentative and nervous in his recent interviews though. Sure there's the trashtalk and the swagger but it all seems a little forced.
