AsianSensation,
At least there were people who would give Pac hope when he fought Oscar. With Hatton, I barely see anybody from the press give him hope. Many are already celebrating Pac's victory pretty much.

Saw your Japanese flag and I was wondering...Nihonjin nano? Nanka, nihon no hatta mitekara, nihonjin kanaaaa to omoutta. Sa, Rikiiii gambareeee! Ikee! Ikeee! Mageru sou dakedo na! heheheheh!

I don't see too much praise for Hatton, Stateside anyways
Yeah, I was wondering about that. I can imagine a "Nice job champ!...Now, let's talk about upcoming fights on HBO..."
