I don't normally watch Boxing, it's one of the few sports I don't get into really. However, advertising and build up on Sky Sports News has totally sucked me in for this fight.
I do enjoy watching big sporting events as a one off even if I don't watch through the regular seasons, fights or competitions(Like the superbowl, for example) but I can't say I've been sucked in by a Boxing event like this before.
Ricky Hatton is undefeated, 43 Wins and 0 Losses. Floyd Mayweather is undefeated, 38 Wins and 0 Losses.
Plus, I've been to the MGM Grand, all be it briefly :p Which is the venue for the fight. Promises to be a very entertaining night.
Hatton is going to destroy Mayweather... what more can be said? Not much as I haven't been following his USA tour much but I know he puches backside ^^
Also Amir Kahn will get another win too earlier in the night, he will hold a World Title before '09
Ah well, looks like I was right to not bother with Hatton Out in the 10th
Amir Khan on the other hand won in 73 seconds! ^_^
It was a good fight , if Hatton hadn't have gone down i could ahve seen that being a close call if it went to the judges. The ref was a bit of a, well im not gonna say but deducting hatton a point for that was a little unfair, Mayweather was doing it too and using elbows, besides hatton hit the ropes.
Think they'll be a rematch?
