Yeah the radio commentators said the same thing about the ref.

But hey, Amir Khan destroyed his opponent in the first round!  :D

watched the fight in the pub ( hey, this is Ireland!  8)  ) , wasn't hugely impressed.  Mayweather got a good punch in and had the sense to follow it up well, but i think Hatton could just as easily have gotten a similar punch in.  thought they were quite evenly matched for most of it.

course it was after five in the morning and i'd been on the beer for eight hours! maybe i was watching two locals in the corner!  :wink:
cry HAVOC!! and let slip the pigs of war!!!

Hatton was never gonna win that, too many people were betting with their hearts instead of their heads - he was out of his class, reach disadvantage, weight (and height?) disadvantage and when he got through he just didn't have the power to make it count.

That said, Mayweather is a typical egotistical ####!!, the kind everyone hates. Hatton can at least come home with his head held high... but sorry mate, that's what happens when you try to be a Bertie Big Bollocks like that.

Stayed up to watch the fight, damn that really messed my sleeping pattern up!

Have to say Hatton was totally outclassed, Mayweather is simply too good. Glad to see Khan win in pretty impressive style, the other guy fought like a bum though.

Anyway the fight I really would like to see is Calzaghe vs Hopkins, Champion versus Legend..

Seriousley though american boxing is of a much much higher standard than UK or European, to be a champ in America is so much harder because the competiton is so much higher. I mean Khan hasn't even fought an american yet, he really needs to be doing that soon.

Yeah i agree Khan needs to fight an American, but not set his sights too high, he's still learning and he will just get knocked out if he fights for a World title now even though he thinks he's ready!

English heavyweight Matt Skelton has a World title fight again Ruslan Chagaev (i think thats how you spell it) next year confirmed, though i can't see him winning against the 'white tyson' haha.

But yeh Calzaghe Vs. Hopkins has to happen, though this time i think the british fighter might come out on top.
