LOL sweet mate i'll probably do the same, last time i stayed up for a fight. Without having any rest inbetween. I was fucked mate, i'll probably go at about 12:00 and set the alarm for 3:00.

Might be buzzing too much though to go asleep, haven't been this excited for a fight in years.

Always kills me getting up for a fight and then trying to go back to bed - feel like shit the next day - but this one is worth it!!

Just watched a bunch of old Mayweather / Mosley fights to get me in the mood for tonight and my observations are;

• Mosley can be frustrating to watch when he waits too long to throw the 1st punch. If he is chasing a fight his front foot boxing is poor and he often gets caught 1st whilst he is loading up. Also he announces he is frustrated to everyone by the look on his face.
• Mayweather is alot more hittable than I first thought. Ive seen him caught clean many times in different times but his chin is great and it never seems to discourage him.
• Floyd when forced to press the action ( particularly in the Judah fight ) is not very comfortable on the front foot. Hes abit like Eubank where he looks class when guys come to him but when he is chasing his balance was bad and he was caught often, touched down vs Judah and abandoned his usual defence for an Arthur Abraham type of guard.
• Mosley puts everything into his shots and as a result he appears to be gassing or atleast taking deep breaths by the 4th round. Mayweather however seems to have unlimited amounts of stamina. Granted he isnt fighting at a high pace but you can watch him in round 1 and he seems just as fresh in round 12.

These guys are well matched, Mosley has heavier hands but I dont think that is going to be evident in the fight. Both have great handspeed. Shane will show his early Floyd will retain his throughout. Both guys will how they can take shots but theres 1 thing that seperates them which is the deciding factor IMO. - FOOTWORK. Mosleyis not great with lateral movement. He cant get in and out quickly but its second nature to Floyd to get out of any awkward moments and put him in position to counter at any time. This will be crucial and the deciding factor. From what Ive seen from both men I epxect a good comepatative fight but Floyds edge in footspeed gives him the edge to win on margins of 115-113

Hey all ...everyone ready ? I just got a hillarious bad rep message from some little kid on here for my opinion on the fight( I assume from how it was written it was a youngster it was really myspace-ish so I assume it was) so the tension is high lol !!! Hope the fight lives up to the hype and can't wait to hear the aftertalk !!! This kel guy has me scared so I'll end it here . Have a great night all !!

I have to say I'm looking forward to the input of our newest member "cheap nike shoes". I'm wondering what he's going to have to say about the fight tonight.

Am sure this Lock is the guy Hatton conveniently dropped in sparring on 24/7? Can anyone confirm that?
