Today's Wall Street Journal has a good article on the resurgence of boxing in Europe, with focus on Hatton/Mayweather. Good quotes from both fighters. Writer gives the impression that Mayweather's the fave because he has a long record of making opponents not use their left jab. But I still think Floyd has never been up against anyone like Hatton.
Heaven only knows what US pay-per-view will want for this event. But I'm pretty sure HBO will have it a week later.
I have a couple of friends, who usually break down and buy it the day of the fight. I then bring a case of beer or a few pizzas and watch the fight there. I've seen Mayweather several times and he's always impressive. I thought he clearly won the fight against Oscar de la Hoya, and was surprised by the split decision. I've only seen bits of Hatton, and he intrigues me.
