Hell Ya!!!

Can't afford to order it, but I'll find a way to watch it ;)

Most of the IRC channels I'm on have a ton of brits, so I'm soooo gonna rub it in when Hatton Loses .... He's a darned good fighter though!!!

did anyone else hear about Dana White from UFC offering Mayweather 2 mil to step in the ring with a UFC fighter. Mayweather declined... hmm I wonder why. He is the man at boxing. I have done some boxing so I know what it would be like against him hed dominate me and I'm considered good. But, in the cage its another game. I wish he took it because it would be awesome to watch the 2 worlds combine.

Well, he's making some ridiculous amount for this fight & not trained for anything near UFC... I think I'd turn it down as well if it would jeopardize my ability to make another 25-50 million for another fight in 6 months ..

Don't know if you remember the old days when it was an "OPEN" format, but there used to be a ton of boxers come thru that would always get their butts kicked.. all it took was getting them off their feet. I think ButterBean got his start on UFC as a matter of fact.

yea, but, still for stand up. Think people who lasted like chuck liddel. He never had to goto the ground. Mayweather could EASILY dominate Liddel in stand up. Its his game. I think that. Some fighters like couture rampage vanderlei silva, and other all around fighters would get him pretty bad. But, the chances are there for it to be fun. and Now that UFC is finally getting bigger. The money is slowly leaking from boxing to UFC.
that is off topic.
mayweather vs hatton I'm pretty sure it will be mayweathers fight.

I was right yay :-D to bad I don't gamble. Mayweather has too much of an arrogant attitude. There will be someone better or maybe not better but, a better style against his. Its all about whose style beats who. Not who is the best. When Mayweather loses cause its inevitable the only fighter to never lose was Rickson Gracie. He might get a better mentality and be a better role model perse. But, I respect his abilites and his right to walk with a chip. But, his attitude is kind of uncalled for.
