    That's a ridiculous assertion based entirely on speculation and generalization.

    You still fail to use your small amount of brain cells to realise that it would be such a change in behaviours that YES, it would be Hatton "punking" Floyd because clearly Floyd would have been rattled, otherwise why wouldn't he talk his poor smack as he has every other time.

    agREED. In fact, wasn't Lewis despised by Brits for claiming (perhaps correctly so :lol: ) that Bruno was an Uncle Tom?

    Slystaff man, you're way off about the british racial divide thing, you've been away too long...my impression is the British black population would be far more likely to get behind Hatton than Floyd, its cultural, same as when The British football crowd who most would characterise as white used to get behind Benn

    I don't understand your logic vs. what I posted. :dunno:

    But to answer your question (I guess); if Hatton were to "get in Floyd's face" and PBF just coolly stared at him with his hands in his pockets (not even bothering to get them out) and a smirk - and then looked away with a "is this guy serious?" look on his face while he grinned....

    I would say PBF rather made Hatton look the fool.

    But as you and I both know...that will never happen because that is not the way either Hatton or PBF behave.

    That being said, I don't put much store in pre-fight bravado and all the press conference stage shows, bro.

    I just thought it was funny how PBF was all worked up, yet Hatton just kinda....well, stared at him as if he was "waiting for a pint" (whoever said that).

    That's all.

    Peace.

    In 1993, yes. By 2000, much was forgiven when they finally understood that staying latched onto Bruno was pointless.

    It always remained a stain with Lewis, the fact that he fought for Canada in the Olympics - same as with Rusedski.

    They'll never get the same amount of love as someone who is a lifelong Brit.


    Sly, i think you've fucked up and are backpedalling furiously. :laughing:

    Look Dude,if U Wanna NAMECALL, REED'll WRECK your FRUITY,Witter Loving Ass ALL DAY on the Smacktalk Forum...Otherwise, ADDRESS REED (your SUPERIOR Poster) w/some Fucking RESPECT...

    So that "Change in Behavior" COULDN'T POSSIBLY B a Result of Hatton's AGITATION or Being Soooooooo RATTLED by the MOMENT Itself,that HE was Actually SCARED of Floyd???:dunno: ...

    Remember when Ross Thompson PUNCHED Fernando Vargas @ the Press Conference,then Gave a Verbal Tirade???...Come Fighttime, Vargas DESTROYED him & Even SPIT on him...

    Newsflash, Floyd HASN"T Talked Trash "Everytime"...That Really Only Started w/the Corrales Fight...Floyd didn't Talk ANY Shit Prior to the Genaro Hernandez & Angel Manfredy Bouts...

    So Shove that "Every Other Time" Remark Up YOUR Ass...Or Witter's,Since U're MORE ACCUSTOMED to his...

    Attraction and REED - cut out the name-calling.

    Make your points without them, please.

    Slystaff's days are numbered. He's dug himself a hole so deep, he can't get out. So he's using laughy emoticons to give the notion that he's joking. I bet right now, he's scared shitless and sweating his ass off.:lol:

    Who are you to give orders on here Donny boy? After you've left the forum to die with your 6 month absence. :lol: Obviously you didn't care enough about the forum hence the long vacations. How you gonna command respect if you're gonna ditch the board like that bro?

    Amongst Hatton Fans YOU would B N the Minority...

    Cause MOST of them would JUMP on the Opportunity to Say Floyd Got "Punked", whereas YOU Would Remain Consistent & Say that Floyd Made Hatton Look "The Fool"...

    They never liked lewis because of his fruity accent, haughty style and the fact that he had the personality of a black bin bag....They didn't like Audley because of his bullshit and his cautious style...Its not about nationality or race so much as whether the public like and/or can identify with them

    The whole "punked" thing is overrated, really...which is why I tend to "side" with the guys who just stay silent and let their actions on ring night do the talking.

    I'm not a huge fan of either guy, so maybe I can be more dispassionate that most on this thread...

    But that doesn't excuse me from bias, given my preference for the style above (vs. the trash-talkers, as you know).

    Though I am as likely to laugh at some of the things trash-talkers say as the next man is! :lol:

    Peace.

    It was me who made that comment because it's exactly the reaction produced when guys like Hatton who get fakes like Mayweather pathetically talking trash (the way Mayweather only knows how).
    However, REED, BigDawg or SlyStaff woudn't know this.

    Come December, I guarantee that Hatton will do a 'Gerald McClellan' on Mayweather Jr.
    Guarantee it.

    Aye certainly, i suppose the correct generalization if theres one to be made is that striking arts are more useful than grappling arts in street situations rather than drawing the boundry lines between boxing and MMA. But I think further than that, even though youd rather know Muay Thai than boxing (and youd rather know Jui Jitsu on top of that) no matter how much you know the absolute first instinct of any fighter in a risky situation would be to end thing with his hands if its possible. So in that limited sense boxing DOES look more like the street.

    Joking aside, I don't think Mayweather Jr will be prepared for what Hatton brings to the table.
    If he can't impose any authority early (Rds 1-4), then he'll find himself up shit-creek without a paddle: Hatton won't stop punching til Mayweather is gone.
