    Ah, but he doesn't hate Manny and want to see him knocked out. It isn't an I hate Manny thread.

    "I'm not racist but..." springs to mind.
    you're a racist? Congratulations

    Nope. Just a misogynist.

    For fucks sake, would you Brits give Mayweather the goddamn Hatton fight?

    They fought at 147. Big deal. So what are you saying? If they fought at 140, Floyd would be drained from the weight cut and wouldn't have been as effective?

    They fought at a weight that was comfortable for both, that was agreed upon by both, and Hatton got his ass kicked.

    Not Ricky who was going through drug problems, or Ricky who was uprooted and switching trainers. We're talking about 43-0 Ricky Hatton. Prime Hatton in top shape, with the trainer who brought him to championship level.

    You all said his pressure style and body punching would give Floyd fits, so don't try to discredit Floyd for that fight.

    We do give him the Hatton fight. Floyd is extremely popular over here and I think that fight has alot to do with it. If I was Floyd I'd be pissed at Joe Cortez for giving Ricky the excuse. Truth be told, the outcome wouldn't have been different but Joe Cortez made an uphill battle worse and thus made the fight less intriguing. Mayweather doesn't need help, but that idiot gave him some anyway.
