Mayweather Snr is quite clearly mad at Hatton after the first round. On the HBO version there is no commentary during the break. He says "Move your head. Keep the hands up. You should've listened to me from day one" It appears to me Mayweather did try teach him to box. Just look at him in the 24/7 shows - he looked fantastic IMO. He lost his composure big time. But this fall out did a lot of damage too.
Spot on. Though I do accept Mayweather Snr turning up late is not acceptable though, regardless of his ability as a trainer.

Typical Hatton, goes flying in and ignores the gameplan. He might get away with it against lesser fighters but against Manny and Mayweather he needed to be smarter.
Not sure what's left for Hatton other than a money match against De La Hoya at Wembley/Manchester or maybe a British fight off against Witter?

kostya's record is alot bigger than hatton's
winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11
Looking at this forum. A lot of the Hatton fans seem happy for him to go one more fight. The only reason people would do this is for a big pay day. I don't see Hatton being this type of guy. I hope not anyway.
Who is there for him to have a real fight with? He has nothing to prove.
