If you don’t know about the biggest fight for ages that’s going to kick off in Vegas tomorrow morning, then you’ve either lived in a hole for the past 4 months or you’re a Muhaddith.
Yes, Shaykh Judai didn’t know about the fight. But he did say that it was a waste of time to watch it. Woops.
Anyway, I just want to thank Pretty Boy and the Hitman for providing some hilarious entertainment over the last month as part of HBO’s 24/7. Hatton’s mimic of Mayweather’s shadow sparring was a classic, and as for Mayweather’s all-time classic statements of arrogance – well, the guy is a legend:
“What can I say? He’s (Hatton) stepping up to another class. Look (pointing to his fingers), there’s 250 on the ring, 300 on the Pinky….”
Ok, Pretty Boy might have a million dollars of bling on his hands but will he use those hands to good avail against our local Manc boy? You can’t tell me that “Wonderland” isn’t catchy, and you can’t tell me that every Brit who loves sport didn’t laugh their heads off when they saw Mayweather’s face at the weigh-in as the Mancs gave it the classic footie chant, “Who are ya! Who are ya! Who are ya!”
So, in the best of Manc tradition, “Let’s ‘av it.”
Disclaimer: I don’t promote boxing whatsoever. It is haram. It is damaging to your health. And it’s addictive. That means bad. And yes, I can’t wait to see the Yank get battered either.
