Um...didn't Mayweather say he was retiring after the De La Hoya fight? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah... but the part he left out was "so that means you'll have to pay extra if you want me back in the ring again"

Mayweather has trouble with body punchers. Hatton historically has been a devastating body puncher. Hatton FTW!!!

QFT

They've been showing the 2 different training camps on tv because the fight is soon.

I think Mayweather is amazing but I would love nothing more than to see Hatton push his sh!t in.

MMA has been completely boring for over a year now. It was a fad.

You keep enjoying your men rolling around on the floor hugging each other. It is nothing more than hype, and a dying hype at that.

Back on topic. Hatton will have to fight dirty to win. He will have to get inside and rough Mayweather up. That is one tall order. Mayweather has a height and a huge reach advantage and he will make Hatton pay coming in. You have to realize that Mayweather can fight very well himself inside. He can roll his shoulders and show defensive brilliance.

Hatton, if he is to have any chance at all, will need to go right after Mayweather. Throw non stop and mix in some elbows if he can get away with it. Mayweather will not give him his ribs to break, Hatton will need to do what nobody else could do to Mayweather, throw him off his game plan. Castillo basically beat Mayweather up in their first meeting, so Mayweather can be outworked.

Anyone know what the PPV price is for this? Sucks that it is so close to XMAS, but I gotta get the fight anyway due to the great undercard also.

I saw a commerical yesterday that had it at $54.95. I think it was an additional $10 to get the undercard (was a bar and too far from the tv to see the fine print).

I would love to see Hatton win but its a tall order and I think sadly mayweather will pull it out in the end. I mean they both have fought nobodies for the most part but mayweather has fought better nobodies

That's my worry. I think mayweather will win on points sadly :(

I think Hatton's going in with so much more heart that I'm hoping this will pull him through.

If it goes the distance Mayweather will win if it's knockout then Hatton get's my vote :)

Depends on who's fighting.

I don't care for fighters who dance around the ring, like Mayweather.

boxing needs something. between the curruption, fighters not fighting the best, to many belts (comone a guy with a 3-5 recornd should not hold a damn belt!) etc

there really needs to be something done.
