Hatton Undercard

First topic message reminder :

All the talk for the last few weeks has been about Ricky, and rightly so. But has given his fighters the chance to prepare without having cameras stuck in their face every 5 minutes which is bound to help. So how do we see those going?

I think Gary Buckland will get through his fight against Steven Forster JR. Forster JR is a decent boxer but Bucklands power is the real equaliser. I also feel Murray will beat Navarro in a WBA Interim fight putting him right back in the title mix. The one I can't pick is Munroe and Quigg, before the last fight I picked Munroe but Quigg had the better of what little action there was. Possibly Munroe underestimated just how skilled Quigg, hopefully there will be no cuts though.

good finish by murray

That was a complete mismatch

Cheers jab

this should help with my aquatic life research.

Nah to be fair, I was pushing it there mate, consider me a reformed character.

The guy was like bambi on ice with every shot, hardly enough to warrant a titl shot

Geale and Macklin would beat him rather comfortably imo and Golovkin would destroy him. I would probably make him favourite vs Barker and his work rate could trouble Quillin who didn't look that fresh last fight although it was pretty gruelling fight. I don't rate Chavez at all so feel murray could outwork him over 12 but he judges won't agree with me

Murray would need a KO to get a draw against Chavez, no way they will let him lose again.

Murray ain't a puncher, Chavez wouldn't go down fighting Martinez so he'd just walk through Murray in my opinion and get a late stoppage. I like the lad, but world level is too much for him, given the talent out there.

Yea but Chavez is so drained at middleweight that he can't keep up a high tempo and looks flat footed. Murray is nothing special but if he can get to the body early he just might leave Chavez with too little to end strong

Remember that Zbik should have got the decision by outworking him and Rubio almost had him by electing to stand and trade with Chavez despite being massively outweighed. Murray is a big guy and won't let Chavez bully him

you haven't got the link then rowls?

I think he'd get bullied, most of Chavez' opponents do. I don't like Chavez, but what they've managed to do with him is create a HUGE middleweight who can't really be shaken - Murray hasn't shown anything to suggest he'll outwork him, Zbik and Rubio were much better than Murray.

Seems like I don't like Murray - really I do, but Barker I feel is the best Middleweight we have.

Aside from Macklin who has been far more impressive against a higher calibre of opponent. Zbik isn't anything special and wouldn't make him a favourite over Murray at all, the biggest problem he has is his lack of power which seems to stem from a fairly poor punching technique.

Zbik got stopped in the 7th after losing almost every round to Sturm, a fighter that Murray beat in some eyes

Don't agree with Barker either, he has no power, lacks stamina even wothout fightimg at a high pace and is physically weak. Macklin was a lot more impressive vs Martinez than Barker was.

Rabchenko looked very limited and very hitable although very tough

Can't believe Az though the would knock out Alvarez

A mate has just posted on facebook that the fight is free on Sky on Channel 930, at the folks so don't have Sky so can't check.

Anyone know if this is true??

Just went on it mate. Its a gay channel. The missus has just left.

I have to say, that's the most impressive physique I've ever seen Hatton boast on fight night.

Sounds like an unbelievable atmosphere.

Haha snap

guessing he wobbled once whilst sneezing which was enough for Az to proclaim his chin pure porcelain.

He looks old though, Chris. In the face at least, he looks beyond his 34 years.

Ricky might not be the fighter is once was....But I'm more excited for this right than I have been in some time...

He looked rather marked up in interviews, I'm worried that his face might not take punishment like it used to.

Senchenko has a very long body, perfect for Hatton.

Come on Senchenko

A "mate"... Sure

He's English, Steffan doesn't need another reason.

I'll be honest, no fight has had me this excited for a while.

sigh,

On a more important note, that atmosphere is electric! Looks amazing with all the phone/camera screens around the arena.

Can't hear the band yet

I'm seriously considering going to his next fight, if just for the atmosphere, it would be better than anything in the world!

Atmosphere is incomparable.

I don't know what it is either, I just am.

Never known an atmosphere drown out the ref!

Au contraire. All my Uni friends are English as was my last 2 recent exs. Hatton is washed up and his fans are chavs. Dint mind Hatton to be honest but Shenchenko is younger and more of a prospect

the fella is a giant. Is hatton in trouble. here we go!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Senchenko is a year old Steff.

Hatton looks rusty, but to be expected.

Steffan wrote:Shenchenko is younger and more of a prospect

Sorry mate, but Senchenko is older

Froch giving Hatton stick

Has Froch ever said anything nice about any fighter other than himself ever?

Decent first round by Hatton, although the good work Senchenko did within it was totally ignored by Darke and Woodhall.

And still more of a prospect either way

Hatton needs to pipe down with the lead left hook to the head, its a little reckless and inaccurate.

Come on Ricky..

Not liking this at the moment...

Good second round from Senchenko, should be his.

Hatton's having trouble picking up Senchenko's right, particularly when it comes over the top.

Ricky looked like he was blowing slightly after round 2... Hope not.

Hatton will win this to be honest

hate welsh people.....
