Not unless starting at 4am GMT is their idea of accommodating us. That's 11pm ET, and as far as I know that's the current scheduled start time, though of course it depends on how the undercard goes.

One stat that doesn't bode well for Hatton:

Reach
Mayweather: 72"
Hatton: 65"

Floyd can jab and run all night unless Graham has devised some fantastic strategy for Hatton.

Maybe Ricky just bulls inside with his lethal body punches and takes his chances of getting tagged. Mayweather's hands are fragile, so his mitts could be hurt early in the fight by landing some hard punches on Hatton.

GO RICKY!

Take care,

Care to share in a PM? I know of a good torrent site for MMA but haven't found a boxing one yet.

I just hope that all the hype and emotions that this fight is attracting will bring back some interest in boxing of the old glorious days. Most anticipated bout since Mayweather-De La Hoya.

Classic quote from Hatton: 'I mean, what's the point of being the best fighter in the world, if everyone thinks [you're] a d--khead?'

Let's get ready to ruummmmbleeeee!!!!!!

Predictions guys? As much as I wish Hatton to win, it's the other guy in 5.

I can't see Mayweather stopping Hatton unless Ricky gets a serious cut. Mayweather doesn't have the power to knock out Hatton.

If Mayweather wins, it's a decision.

Scoop:

Since many of the fight videos posted here are direct downloads and not torrents, I'll just post the site here:

Plus boxingscene.com is an excellent overall boxing site.

Simply put, I believe that this fight would have not been a fight of 'unbeatens' because Mayweather should have 2 losses on his record. The first should have been to Jose Luis Castillo in their first matchup...I mean, what in the heck fight were the judges watching. THe second match Mayweather should have lost was to Zab Judah. If only Judah could learn to concentrate and possess stamina, then he would have had the match.

I just have this sinking feeling that this match won't be as exciting as advertised because mayweather will be on his bicycle and backpedaling the WHOLE match. THe delahoya-mayweather match was an EXTREME let-down...and although I am not of mexican heritage, i would have been VERY pissed off seeing mayweather adorning the mexican colors as his trunks and having his 'jail-time' crew wearing t-shirts saying 'mayweather loves mexico'.

I swear, if wish morales, barrera, the marquez brothers, margarito, etc. would have waited outside for mayweather and jumped him! :)

heck, just let margarito go at him alone...

i hope this fight will live up to the hype! but seriously pbf - - MAN UP!!!!

Mayweather = the most boring fighter I've ever seen in my life.


I love Hatton but he doesnt have the tools to beat Mayweather. In fact, I dont think this will be close. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Hatton in 10. I don't care what Ricky has to do to get PBF to fight, but he will do it. Once he does, then PBF's pride will get in the way of his smarts. It's Ricky who's already under PBF's skin. Like others, I fear the worst, PBF running all fight. Heck, I'll say it again, Hatton in 10! :)

Especially compared to the previous "best pound for pound" fighter, Roy Jones Jr. RJJ was action.

I love watching Miguel Cotto fight. The guy can box or he can brawl. A very exciting fighter.

It's not an HBO fight; it's HBO Pay Per View. I doubt Sopcast works with that.
