    Sure, Hatton Got Beat Down (As Predicted by REED), but U Gotta Hand it to Him & ESPECIALLY his Fans...

    NOBODY Brings PASSION to Boxing Events like the Brits...Win, Lose or Draw...

    Props to Hatton & his Fans:clap: ...But Having Said that, HOPEFULLY Floyd Mayweather has FEWER Haters Today than he Did Yesterday...

    Like Ric Flair, Floyd Mayweather is "The Best Thing Going Today....Whoooooooooooo!!!"...

    One of my friends was wondering if they were even watching the fight because they just kept chanting that gay Hatton Wonderland song even after their boy got knocked out.:lol:

    But that's Part of WHY REED Applauds the British Fans...

    These Peeps SUPPORTED the Likes of Henry Cooper, Frank Bruno & a LITTANY Of Other Subpar Fighters...So they DESERVE some World Class, H.O.F. Type of Cats like Lennox, Nigel Benn, Hatton, etc....

    1nce the Brits LOVE U, they ALWAYS Will...Win, Lose or Draw...U GOTTA Respect That Type of Commitment...REED Bets Hatton will Have 5 or 10,000 Peeps @ the Airport, 1nce he Gets Back Home...

    No Doubt...

    Shit, the Mayweather-Hatton Weigh-In was 1 of THE BEST Weigh-In's EVER...

    REED RARELY Gets Excited During a Weigh-In, but Hatton's Fans MADE that Shit Exciting...

    American Fans could Learn ALOT about True "FANDOM", from the Brits...

    Like how to boo during the opponents national anthem? That may be the most classless thing I've seen yet...Sure they support their guy, but they also come off as classless, drunk, pieces of shit.

    But the result only makes Floyd's entrance to "Born in the USA" that much sweeter.

    should they be more like Xplosive, only 'supporting' a guy if he wins?

    Yeah, this is 100% correct.

    I don't like the whole 'national anthem' BS, but I was squirming in my armchair when the booing started. Why do that, man?

    It's just gamesmanship - happens all the time at soccer matches. I agree it's pretty lame, but so is gettign all wound up about people making noises over some daft tune.

    Who cares about national anthems in this day and age???:dunno:

    I suspect most of those booing think 1812 is Kronenberg's newest introduction to the beverage market...

    Go back, re-read what REED started off this thread with, then check out his subsequent posts.


    Then think for a nano-second about what you posted and realise what a cock you are.

    Yeah, nobody brings it like the Brits. Your boy Floyd obviously can't ignite sh*t with his own fans since his fans are bored sh*tless in all his fights. Notice nobody even so much bothers clapping when Floyd's in there with a Baldomir, hell they head for the exits.:lol:
    Guys like Floyd need the DLH and Hatton type opposition otherwise he'd still be fighting in 2,000 seat clubs on free tv.

    So so true. PBF could have come out to one of his whack ass rap songs but instead he choose to pump up the US. When he did that I was like hell muthafuken yeah. I'll Holla 5000

    Yeah, and look at your boy Roy. After his first legit knockout loss to Tarver in a shocker and you got thousands of american clowns bombarding the place with "Oh Roy's got a glass chin, I told y'all", and "Roy's a f*ckin' bum!!!"
    That's the kind of crappy ass fan base your american fighters have.:lol:
    At least the Brits don't completely turn their backs on their fighters.
    Beside, the Brits got what they wanted. Enterainment. And even after Hatton got KTFO, they STILL were yelling and parading and singing. They don't hang their heads in shame just because their sportsman lost.

    Yep. When he was walking in, there were a couple of young brothers in the stands singing along to 'Born in the USA'. I turned to my wife and said "You know damn well that's the first time those kids ever sang along to that song."

    It was classic.

    Yep, that was their first priority. :rolleyes: It certainly wouldn't be that they were there to see their overrated hero try to take down the P4P king and lose badly.

    It don't change the fact that his fights with Baldomir and DLH were garbage! Only at Floyd's fights will the fans yell "UFC....UFC". :lol:
    Floyd won the fight but Hatton owned the place. Otherwise you wouldn't be getting dead silent atmospheres like we got during Floyd/Baldomir.

    Who was the underdog? :lol: Who was the guy coming up in weight? Who was the guy challenging for the title? Exactly. The Brits are just passionate. They actually support their boys. Not like the bandwagoning americans who turn their backs just because of one loss.:tease:

    So Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosely, Evander Holyfield, etc. don't have fans?

    Sorry dude, it sounds like your just trying to find the silver lining and there ain't one. Hatton was destroyed.
