Im new to this forum, in terms of posting anyway, but ive been reading the posts on here for some time now and this is by far the most rediculous post i have ever read. So much so that i had to reply just to add my general disbelief at the original poster. But more importantly to respond to those more sensible posters who seem to think that any fight between pbf and hatton has to take place at 147 and that if it did it would be a very quick and according to some "one sided" and even "boring". Now first off, how could this fight ever be boring at 147? If hatton wins, shock horror!, then we have an exciting fight no matter what, because pbf will have the cocky attitude beaten out of him and the underdog and working class hero will have been victorious. Even if hatton loses, which most think he will, you'l still get to see pretty boy floyd knock out an unbeaten, pound for pound, 2 weight world champion and cement his evergrowing reputation as the best boxer of the past 20 or so years. But secondly, and more importantly, why wouldnt pbf fight hatton at 140? and why shouldnt he? Floyd being the arrogant sob that he is, would surely get alot more respect by beating hatton at a weight that they both fighters are more comfortable at. Finally, id just like to say that hatton will have a much longer preperation time for a 147 match up against pbf and will (hopefully) be in the best shape of his life and be conditioned properly to fight a fighter that in my opinion suits him down to the ground. Look at the castillo-pbf fights and ask yourself who (out of the current contenders) is most likely and most capable of producing a performance like that against pbf. If hatton gets up in floyds face and closes the ring off fast he can do what castillo did and at least take it to the wire and if he connects like he connected against (an albeit older) castillo then pbf would at least have problems. But will it be boring? one sided? not cared about!!?? i really dont think so...
ps to the guy who doesnt like the booing at national anthems, dont take it personally as anti american or anything, british fans would boo at the kazhakstan national anthem if hatton or whoever british was fighting one of them...its more pantomime booing than anything, not vehemenant hatred
Wow that was a pretty long post. I stopped reading at "Im new at this forum..." It's not that u are boring, it's just really late over here in the US lol![]()
