It was Mayweather, really, who was the best. The boxers had by then completed a media tour that saw them visit Los Angeles, Michigan, London and Manchester.
The fighters were so vastly different that anytime they were together, there was unintentional magic.
Ricky was not overly impressed by what he saw.
“I’m sure there probably is another side to Floyd,” he said, with a pause. “If there is, I haven’t seen it yet.”
One of the main things Rick and Billy talked about that day was how important the referee would be on that ridiculously atmospheric night in Las Vegas, when the Brits rolled in and took the city by storm.
Mayweather had protested that Hatton would cheat to get an advantage.
“I keep hearing all that and think that’s fear in him; saying I hold and I’m a dirty fighter,” Ricky said, spitting defiance. “He’s making excuses already. It’s a work of art being able to inside fight.”
