Had the pleasure of meeting Ricky Hatton at a charity do once. He was surprisingly down to earth, and VERY funny.
I remember watching all the 24/7. I thought Floyd was a clown and not serious but damn I was wrong. He was playing the game for the camera and then behind closed doors he was perfecting his skills and game plan. Hatton never had a chance. Both brilliant boxers but Mayweather was an athlete and Hatton never treated his body with respect and that showed in the fight. Been a Floyd Mayweather fan since that fight.

I think what sealed that fight completely was Hatton's own frustration, with Mayweather twisting to expose the back of his head a lot, and Hatton getting frustrated with the constant warnings from the ref, he never had a chance even if it were equal.

I like Ricky but Ricky Hatton stood no chance against Mayweather. I knew he was gonna lose and I didn’t even see any of their previous fights. But I could tell by Ricky’s nature that he was a wild bulldog fighter and Mayweather looked more disciplined. American fighters tend to be better than the British. So based off those bias thoughts I knew he was gonna lose. I was between 10-12yrs old when they fought.
