Have to pay my betting debts to my American friends - Floyd Mayweather Jr is still unbeaten in last night's clash against Briton Ricky Hatton.  Both fighters came in unbeaten and are exceptional, but Mayweather ruled the day with a knockout!  Ricky gave his all and you could see the passion in him, but it wasn't to be his night!

I would usually say that the mark of a true champion is how he handles defeat, because at some time in life, it comes to us all in one way or another unless you are extremely lucky, but in Ricky's case, he is already a proven champion and last nights performance was no different to any of his other fights - he is relentless and fights with pure heart as well as skill.  In his position, I would hang up the gloves and look back at a brilliant career and for me, he has nothing more to prove!
