Ricky Hatton-Pauli Malignaggi, HBO 10.00est

[poetwarrior41]

Yeah Mike, he's been mocking his weight swings for several fights now. I vaguely remember the first time he wore his "Fatton" shirt, I think it was against Tszyu.

He doesn't look the same person at all when he balloons up between fights. He must gain something like 40-50 pounds.

Lampley said in the pre fight that Hatton told him he had to drop 42 pounds to make weight for this fight.

Between fights he eats everything you would advice a boxer not too and drinks vast amounts beer, it's part of the reason for his astonishing popularity, 7,000 have come over from England for this.

[Matt Rain]

Wow, I didn't catch that, this is nuts. I know that guys in the upper weight divisions (160 to 175) routinely have to lose 30+ pounds, but for a 140-pounder to have to lose over 40, damn.

[Matt Rain]

7,000 have come over from England for this.

...and they are remarkably noisy! They sound nearly as loud as the 20k+ that were there for the Mayweather fight.

Only oooone, Ric-ky Hat-ton!

That was what swung me into backing Paulie, what a fvckin mistake, Paulie can only win by KO now and we all know that aint happening.

[Matt Rain]

Yeah. If it's any consolation, I'll be sweating for the rest of the fight. Hatton is landing clean, hard shots consistently now. Paulie isn't able to dodge or block as well as I thought.

[englishmike]

One thing in your favour is he shows no signs of giving up, you can see he wants to take it to the end.

How the hell did Malinaggi get this fight, first time I've seen him and he's been absolute garbage. Having this on PPV as well is a sham.

[englishmike]

Wow, the trainer more or less asked Paulie if he wanted to quit: 'Are you feeling alright, it's important.'

Move here Woody, its free and you could go see The Chargers-Colts tommorow.

[englishmike]

Wow. i feel so sorry for points backers. Nothing I can say.

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

Wow, under 11.5 rounds was like +240, this smells fishy. Buddy McGirt was paid off

[pat venditto]

Sucks I was rooting for pauly because hes from brooklyn.

[Matt Rain]

Oh snap! Paulie, you fag.

Sorry Rogatien, we'll get 'em next time.
