It goes both ways bro'. Floyd tells everyone that Hattons fans are really coming to see him, not their "British Idol" Hatton. That's just as silly as Hatton saying 33,000 vs. 33. It might sound as if I'm trying to get into a pissing contest with you, but I don't do that on here man{except if Violent Demise implies I wear dresses and panties}
LEGION,

May I offer some perspective here: Ricky has had 3 fights in the US. None of those three fights sold out. When the Mayweather fight is announced, the tickets sell out in 30 minutes. So, it is with THAT disparity in mind that Floyd says that the fans are coming to see him.

Would the British fans fly over to see Floyd fight Cotto or Margarito? Of course not. But neither would they (or did they) fly over in those volumes to see Ricky fight anyone else.

How do we know that? Because we have three previous Hatton fights as evidence.

Fair statement?
