Will This cause hatton problems?

[RHHatton]

I'm wondering whether or not this will affect Hatton...I realise he is a professional athlete and he should be able to overcome, but he has become so accustomed to the unique atmosphere created dually by the British fans and his own performances.

Should numbers of British fans be down, making the venue neutral or god-forbid, pro-Mayweather will Ricky be affected?
In addition will this news make Hatton's focus slip before the fight?

at least 75% of the crowd on December the 8th will be british. we always find a way to get in. Dont worry!!

I don't think it should...We love Ricky over here as well and believe it or not get a kick out of the Brits and their way of support ( the singing ect) makes the even a bit more fun....Though I do still think it causes an advantage for a guy if he is fighting at home and gets that type support on top of it...throws off the opponent mentally.....

Mate if i get a ticket i sure hope them annoying guys playing the Brass Band leave that S*** at home, for me that was really annoying, i love the big loud atmosphere but thats just runins it imo.

The band I can do without to be honest I wasn't even thinking about the band I was thinking about the crowd and the singing

Well at ricky's fights in England the brass band enhanced the whole expieience...
Never in my life will i forget the atmosphere at the Maussa fight:
A beautiful orgy of celebration, Raw sound cascading from the upper tiers and a visceral under current as we all waited with bated breath for maussa to get knocked the F*** out.

Thats the first time i have seen the brass band at any of rickys fights

I went to five of his fights at the MEN and not once was there a band, personallly i think think its shit.

Yeah i reckon they were drafted in at sheffield to try and compensate for some of the atmosphere that was lost after his Expulsion form the M.E.N

I like Ricky and will be rooting for him, but to me this is a blessing. If I can get to watch Ricky fight without having to hear 20,000 people sing that horrible music and to not have to look at these toothless blue collar beer guzzling peasants, then it'll make my December

Toothless blue coller beer guzzling peasants?? Who spend over $6 thousand us dollers in a 11 month period to go watch there man fight? Wow they are some dedicated peasants.

Show a bit more respect dude, dislikeing there way of watching there man is fair enough but calling them peasants is just out of order, shape up or you wont last hear long.

Like already mentioned, Ricky is a pro and this shouldnt be an issue, it might bring him out of his comfort zone a little because he is used to having that familiarity even though he is far away from home, but it is unfortunate that All the dedicated Hatton fans are getting mistreated of sorts with the ticket allocation, you guys deserve better for your dedication...

And here come the excuses. I can hear Hatton now "Oh no, the young chap who delivers my paper every morning is not in the stands. What am I going to do? How will I ever win now?"

[donnydarkoIRL]

I'm not offerin any excuses i'm just wonderin whether Ricky will lose confidence as a result of diminished support?

It won't be diminished. Even the US Tickets will end up in UK hands.
