no he mostly gets the belts from knockouts

Vic Darchinyan to fight Joseph Agbeko in Miami . The 33-year-old Darchinyan is expected to pocket more than $1 million should he flatten Ghanian-born Agbeko and win his seventh world title in a third weight division - a feat that would easily make him the most successful Aussie boxer in history. Darchinyan became the undisputed super-flyweight champion in February when he stopped Jorge Arce in the US. He has to add less than 2kg to fight as a bantamweight and has already started to follow a strict weights program to make sure he loses none of his power. Nonito Donaire, the only man to beat Darchinyan, was mooted as an opponent, as was WBO bantamweight champion Fernando Montiel. Should Darchinyan have no problems with bantamweight and defeat Agbeko, who has won 26 of his 27 fights, super-bantamweight champion Israel Vasquez will be on the slugger's immediate radar. www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/s ... 23,00.html

About time really, he's been nothing more than a name for the last few years now and it culmanated in him becoming nothing more than a punch bag against Pac. He will probably go down as an all-time great, but IMO he's always been overrated.

no born an bread from aussie convict stock

Kenny Bayliss has been named the ref for the Hatton-Pac fight.

the man ''choc'' mundene fights next month . sonny bill williams will fight on the under card.in his 1st pro fight ........... he could be called . sonny''the money''bill williams

Sonny Bill Williams set for boxing debut THE undercard may yet steal the limelight from Anthony Mundine when the controversial star makes what could be his Australian boxing farewell. Rugby convert Sonny Bill Williams looks set to make his professional boxing debut at Mundine's next world title fight - May 27's showdown with IBO middleweight champion Daniel Geale at Brisbane. Mundine announced that he would fight in Brisbane for the first time - but was uncharacteristically coy when asked about the undercard. www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/s ... 98,00.html

Really looking forward to Ricky's fight now, gutted not to be going, but hopefully find somewhere decent in Edinburgh to watch it.

Don't reckon much to his new tattoo.

Hitman?



For some reason as each day goes by I'm getting more and more confident Hatton will win.

Me too.

People will say Floyd Mayweather Snr is a bit irritating with his poems etc. but I feel a lot of people are underestimating his influence on Hatton - you've gotta remember he only had him for 7 weeks before the Maliganggi fight and his had a long time with him this time.

And regardless of boxing technicalities, Pacqiouo hasn't been tested against a fighter who punches as hard as Hatton...

can hatton fight mundene

Freddie Roach is far more anoying, and can't seem to shut his mouth, its unlike him and I reckon he's feelin it a bit as the fight nears.

Bloody magic weekend!

How ignorant of the promoters to organise the fight of the year for the same weekend as Murrayfield
.




There had better be somewhere to watch the fight or there will be trouble.

DANNY GREEN is fighting this weekend . after a year in retirement

he wants too have a rematch with mundene the man . clash of the world champs

Looking forward to the Hatton fight now.

As others have said, the nearer the fight gets the more confident I am getting. The Manny camp seem to be getting slightly nervous with all the talking they're doing.

Hatton'll need to be disciplined but if he can work his way through, Pacqiouo hasn't been tested by anyone with the punching power of Hatton. If Ricky can get the body shots going, I think he'll win.

Don't know what to make of Haye with the severed heads of the Klitschko brothers. I understand he's done it to get a reaction, but I agree with Wladimir that it isn't a great example to be setting.

That said, I hope Haye wins. Always been a fan of his and I agree the Klitschkos aren't entertaining in the slightest. However, I think Haye underestimates the punching power of Wladimir. I don't think Haye's chin has ever really been tested (in fact I seem to recall him being pretty shook up a couple of fights back), but if Wladimir gets him, it may all be over.

If Haye can hit and move and get the jab working then he'll ease his way to a points win, what he doesn't want to do is slug it out in the middle of the ring.

hatton is looking very good in the 24/7 series...snr seems to have found some speed from hatton out of somewhere???? i guess thats down to the touch-tapping pad work they've been doing?

Carl Thompson, back when Haye was still fighting at cruiser? Albeit Thompson was a big cruiserweight.
