Floyd Mayweather today urged “gun-shot” Ricky Hatton to retire and absolved his controversial trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr of any blame for the defeat by Manny Pacquiao.

Floyd Mayweather Jr has confirmed he is coming out of a 17-month retirement to fight Mexico’s WBA lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez.

Ricky Hatton believes he is “the best he has ever been” heading into Saturday’s showdown with Manny Pacquiao.

Floyd Mayweather Jr has approached Ricky Hatton’s team about a possible rematch in 2009, according to the Englishman’s camp.

Ricky Hatton continued his unbeaten run at light-welterweight by outclassing Paulie Malignaggi with an 11th-round stoppage at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

OSCAR DE LA HOYA is convinced he has found the right style to defeat Floyd Mayweather Jr in their rematch this September.

Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr. came face to face at the weigh-in as their super-fight in Las Vegas approaches.

WHAT better metaphor to judge this year in and out of the ring than the sport itself. Like a journeyman pro, the sport has in 2006 been all things to all men.
