    I don't see why Ricky shouldn't tke it personally though. Whilst he understands the need to sell tickets he's said on a number of occaisions that when the camera's are off and the media are gone Floyd's still exactly the same.

    Looking forward to getting home tonight to watch this.

    Hmm.. nothing new there

    The best bit was when Ricky's mum told his dad to stop banging the table.

    And Floyd snr is always good for a laugh.

    I've heard many people have a problem with Ellerbe, and frankly, I just don't see it. He is BY FAR the most reasonable member of Team Mayweather (like being the tallest dwarf). He is seldom profane, and he is mostly quite measured. He supports his guy...but that's his job. Right?

    These guys have problems. In much the same way that Mayweather needs constant positive acclaim for his boxing skills, Hatton seems to need the social acceptance of his peers. I don't think one is superior or inferior to the other. It's just ...different. Oscar blows off steam by dressing up as Tinkerbell. Er, I'll tolerate Floyd's cash fetish.

    Donald Trump and Martha Stewart and Oprah need to put their name on everything. Bill Gates built a huge ridonkulous house. Meanwhile, Warren Buffet brownbags his lunch. People are just different.

    I sometimes bristle at Hatton's characterization of PBF. Ricky has to understand that some people are different. RH's viewpoint is a form of intolerance.

    Also, Ricky said that he has 33,000 fans and Floyd has 33. Ricky perhaps should reflect on why he is making his biggest payday for this fight.

    Graham seems like a reasonable guy. He is bothered by the fact that (many) people consider Hatton as one-dimensional. In truth, that would be an indictment of his training abilities. So I understand why he rejects that criticism. But Chavez and Duran are pressure fighters who were ALSO fine boxers. Ricky has yet to display that breadth of skill. And it's doubtful that he will on 12/8.

    Mayweather is a cardio machine. But he seems do do the same training techniques for every fight. I understand that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", but he is also nearing 31 and fighting a smaller man than his last two fights. It would seem that some adjustment would be appropriate.

    Whew. Those are my observations from the first ep.

    Wow!! Interesting observations. I would say, and maybe you will agree or not, that through the last few years Mayweather has been very vocal about Hatton and basically relegating him to amateur staus as a fighter. Up until the Castillo fight I don't think I had ever heard Ricky say anything negative about Mayweather and really just praised him as a fighter with great skills, which he still does. I know alot of this is for drama, but I was happy that Ricky finally shot back at Floyd after defeating Castillo, and all of a sudden Ellerbe and Floyd say they got disrespected. Seems hypocritical after the previous years of bad mouthing a guy who never spoke poorly about them{or at least I never heard them, which doesn't mean Ricky didn't}. So for you to say that you bristle at Hatton's characterization of Floyd and call him intolerant, it seems you could say it 10 fold about Floyd's dissing of Ricky for no reason for several years. Yes I am a fan of Ricky, but also a huge admirerer of Floyd and think he'll win, so I don't want you to think I'm a fan of Hatton and trying to infuse a riot of words with you. To me it's ironic that Floyd and Ricky can't find commom ground with each other as they both don't get the credit they deserve, more so with Floyd as I'll accede to him having overall better opponents, but still they both get railed by people. Ricky's got balls getting in with Floyd and yet no one seems to want to give credit for him taking the plunge into deep water. People criticize European fighters for being scared to come across the pond but Ricky has and is now coming to fight the best. If he didn't everyone would say he's a coward. And when Floyd beats Ricky alot will say he took a money fight with a bum and he'll have to beat someone else like Cotto before he gets credit. And Floyd, yeah I don't like his personality but I'm sure he wouldn't like mine. He should love his kids and his mom; I'd think less of him if he didn't; but all that kissing money and calling his opponents that are responsible for him to make money{it goes both ways} bums is b.s. and it gets old IMO. Anyways, I'm starting to ramble so my apologies. Nothing personal DIOS.
    Hatton as been trash talking Mayweather since at least after Tszyu fight.
    No he hasn't

    He's been saying 'floyd is the number 1 fighter on the planet' for the last 3 years.

    He also been calling Mayweather a boring runner for a really long time, at least after the Tszyu fight.

    Whew. Those are my observations from the first ep.

    About Mayweather's training... I am sure Roger is keying in a on certain elements when they train that will suit him against Ricky Hatton, but Mayweather is so natural in there that he really shouldn't change his style to fight Hatton because first of all isn't a good defence what you need against an aggresive fighter, and second we only see a few seconds of what he is doing, IMO the padwork he does with Roger will help against any fighter because its keeps him sharp, its more about the sparring partners(like Ndou) that will allow Mayweather to adjust to Ricky Hatton's style.

    As for him being almost 31, I think that means almost nothing these days. 31 is still in a boxer's prime unless they take drugs or live a poor life style. Mayweather hasn't absorbed half the punishment other fighters with his accolades have and they are still fighting strong(like Mosley and Dela Hoya), Sure Mayweather might get a little slower, but accomodations can be made, and a lot of what makes Mayweather hard to hit isn't his speed anyways, he keeps a tight guard, he doesn't get hit by foolish punches because he always prepared and has fewer defensive lapses than any other fighter I've ever seen.

    I hope that Floyd gets his ass KO'd I dislike him because he shows no respect for anyone and does anything he can to hype himself.

    Say what you will about Hatton's style, but he's a good guy there's no doubting that and it doesn't take away from him being a tough boxer....I wish him the best



    Floyd has spent his life avoiding humility....it will seek him out and I only hope he hasn't filled his ego up so much that he can't handle when he's no longer on the top of the mountain
    I bet you watched it Lyle, you'd do everything in your power to prevent a pro-british comment
    ....is that sarcasm or are you just dense?

    You gotta love the 24/7 shows. The production value in these things is so high and it builds the excitement up very well. Floyd deservedly the favorite in this fight...but you gotta love Hatton's attitude and personality. To be honest...i think he is winning the mental war games so far. Whether that will have an effect on the outcome of the fight...not sure. But Ricky is not intimidated by Floyd. Doubt the fight will be as good as the series...but we can hope.
