Remember when Pedro Martinez call the Yankees his "Daddy"? Well Floyd Mayweather Jr. you are Larry Lump Lump's Daddy. I wanted you to lose, thought you would lose, but you proved me wrong and at this point I must admit you are the best pound for pound fighter out there. I'm sure my cousin Willy is going to bust my chops about this one. Floyd Mayweather Jr. TKO over Ricky Hatton in the 10th round. Ringside judges had it 89-81 on two cards and 88-82 on another. The fight "looked" like I thought it would, with a lot of clinching, and charging in by Ricky Hatton, but Floyd's counter attack was on point. Ricky Hatton only landed 63 out of 372 punches. At the beginning of this fight you thought it was taking place in the UK with all the singing, flags, and chanting going on. The boo birds were blaring during the US national anthem. Even after Hatton was knocked out his fans were still in full effect chanting his name. What happens now for these two? Floyd is hinting at retirement again and wants to focus on promoting (with Oscar De lay Hoya no less). Makes you wonder about how much pre fight trash talk is real vs fake. However you know everyone (including me) wants to see him fight Miguel Cotto, and when the money is right I am sure Mayweather will take on the challenge. As for Ricky Hatton, it's only his first loss so it's not like he is done. If the Mayweather-Cotto fight does not happen he could fight Cotto, or maybe even Oscar De La Hoya. Overall is was a decent fight, like I said a lot of clinching, but Mayweather earned my respect. Regardless of all the trash he talks, and his out of ring lifestyle, when it comes time to train and fight he is all business. Guess I got to buy two cards this year for Fathers Day.
Tomorrow Larry Lump will go over some of the under card fights, UFC finale, and the rest of the weekend fight results.

Da Moose is now 7-0. Another piece 'o cake for my members. I told you before Hump that you gotta snoop around the camps, sniff out the bars and have a camera in the 'troom to examine them bowel movements to see if the guys are ready to rumble. Little Hatton was not. He was pumpin' Guinness' two at a time and sloppin down monsters Brit B-Fasts.
Plus, with all the deformed & missing digits he has, he just couldn't get a grip.
When you have a decent UK boxer like the Hat, you got to keep him away fom his own milleau or else he will piss away the match because of his cronies.
Plus, I think he's a midget too.
