Really? That takes some doing. I am joyously ignorant of sport. I'll watch Amir Khan if he's on tv though.` Amir Khan is awesome. Olympic Silver medallist at just 17. Commonwealth lightweight champion. Beat the rated #1 lightweight boxer in Graham Earl in just 73 seconds, which absolutely shocked me. The man is just a KO machine. Plus his fights are entertaining as hell. His title win over Limond was fantastic, as was his fight with Lawton. I miss Audley Harrison, though. Can't wait till he's healthy to fight again. We need a Boxing Appreciation thread. The sport does not get enough love.

How about Big Show Vs David Beckham? It would be awesome, if Beckham kicked a ball at Big Show but the ball flew wide over him. It would have been awesome to see Show kick the living crap out of Beckham.

Show/Hatton certainly wouldn't draw as well, but Hatton would have been over huge as a face. I can't help but cheer for Show at every point in this feud so far.

It would be a more of a face vs heel match up with Hatton. Hatton seems like a good guy. Now we have a match with a big bully character in Big Show vs a very good fighter with a bunch of money who just happens to be a total a-hole in mayweather.

I was just thinking that what if Ricky Hatton had beaten Floyd Mayweather last December? Would he be getting 20 million dollars and be fighting Big Show at Wrestlemania? Obviously I don't know how long Vince has had this all planned out. Personally I think Ricky would have been a lot more entertaining. No, the reason they got mayweather because his 2 fights with De La Hoya and Hatton drew HUGE numbers, De La Hoya and he drew the BIGGEST PPV buy of all time. That's why they brought in Mayweather. It's not like WWE would bring in Kelly Pavlich or one of the Klitschkos... Hatton also looks like he's marked in his pants over hanging out with Stone Cold
