So I'm having a change of heart on Floyd, Sort Of.

Alright I admit, he annoys me sometimes, but after watching the second 24/7 i'm starting to like the guy, a little. I still wish he would just be himself because when he is he can be a charming engaging young man. Don't get me wrong, I still want Hatton to knock some sense into him, but he's starting to grow on me, a little bit. Anyone else catch the second 24/7?

If he is putting on a persona he is doing an awful job of it. He comes across as really childish and not the badboy image he thinks he is putting out there.

It's hard to know how much of what Floyd says is genuine. I think he is genuinely cocky but some of the stuff on 24/7 is just to hype the fight. I'm sure that Floyd and Hatton respect eachother deep down.

I agree with that 100 percent.

Stay the course.
That’s my advice.

Mayweather is an asshole, so is his father.

Hatton is a good guy, and it helps to demonize one of the combatants leading into a big fight.

Makes it better when you can pull for one over the other without confusion.

If it weren't for his kids, he'd probably be annoying 24/7. I like Floyd though, but I like Hatton also. Both great fighters.

He may be an asshole, but he's the best p4p boxer imo right now, I do agree that he acts childish tho, what was with him running around the doctors office?
Possibly like alot of fighters who's fathers pushed them into it while young not really allowing for a real childhood.

I hadn't thought about that. So true.
