fight night




MAn, I'm shattered. We stayed up the whole of Saturday night for the Hatton vs Mayweather fight, watching all the warm up bouts en route.

It was great! I haven't done this for fecking years.

It was disappointing in that I had money riding on Ricky, but there's no doubt that he was hopelessly outclassed by Floyd Mayweather Jr. FLoyd's punches were crisp, on target and, as can be seen, carried a fair bit of venom. His post-match comments were also quite encouraging- I'd had him down as an arrogant twat, but that opinion is much revised- I think I'm a fan now. The man can box!

Speaking of arrogant twats, I realllly enjoyed watching Amir Khan flooring Graham Earl. Earl had been spouting no end of crap along the lines of 'Amir's a young nobody, he's not ready for me, I'm mean, I'm stringer...' blah blah blah. 72 seconds and about a dozen punches to the face later he's tasting canvas. Happy birthday Amir! :)
