As the fight draws closer between Manny and Hatton their is a lot of tension building between the two camps with claims that that Manny’s coach “Roach” is saying that if Hatton fights Manny he will die! Not the best thing to be saying but the coach has said he will be disappointed if Hatton is still standing after three rounds.
The two met at a red carpet event in Hollywood to promote their fight on 2nd May Hatton has already stated that he thinks the Filipino star is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world right now, but does not believe his last win was as good as it sounds and is aiming to show the world he can still be the best pound for pound champion.

I don’t no about you but I every time i here England have a new kit is coming out i think to my self what type of rubbish are they going to be wearing now or trying to get us to buy because come on lets face it every England kit over the last couple of years that i can think of has been rubbish or not up to my standards any way hahaha,
I think we have to blame the shirt makers Umbro I think they need to get with the times i mean Nike and Addidas no what they are doing designing good quality and attractive shirts that people are buying who are not even from that country or support that nation because they like the shirt i don’t think any one would do this with an England shirt.
The new shirt looks like a polo shirt with a few badges stuck on it and their stating that this shirt has been designed to improve performance how does that work?
With prices ranging from £30 to £50 for adults I don’t think you will find me buying one even if i was handed Promotional Coupons are we not in recession

Ahead of the this weeks opener to the F1 season the teams have been practicing on the Australian Grand Prix ahead of Saturdays Qualifiers how ever the practices have left most teams in a new pecking order and its not the current the champion leading the pack.
On Melbourne’s Albert Park circuit, Hamilton finished 16th in the first 90-minute session, Hamilton then ended the second 1.5 seconds faster - but down in 18th.
He at least had his McLaren team-mate Heikki Kovalainen for company as the Finn was 17th, perhaps underlining the fact their car really is as bad as feared.
The only two drivers behind Hamilton were Renault’s Nelson Piquet and this year’s lone rookie Sebastien Buemi in his Toro Rosso.

For many who have not heard yet The Uefa Cup will be known as the UEFA Europa League from next season in order to boost the competition’s appeal.
Many see the Uefa Cup as Europe’s second cup competition behind the prestigious UEFA Champions League, something Uefa has been proactively attempting to reverse which I don’t see as being possible as were more interested in watching the best teams in Europe rather than the teams who failed to make it.
Along with the re-brand, there will be more teams involved with 12 groups of four teams playing both home and away matches, whereas the current group format sees a five-team group playing two home and away fixtures.

To be honest I was thinking this not long ago when I heard Carlos Tevez had been pulled by police because of his Car Window Tints and then they realized that he was driving with a foreign driving license which you can only use for a year then have to re take your test in this country which he had failed to do resulting in police seizing his car.
It makes me wonder how some of these professional footballers driving some of the most powerful cars on the road, are driving with foreign licenses and are now being offered extra driving lessons by their own union.
The PFA scheme, being launched at the City of Manchester stadium, follows several high profile incidents involving players.

Its a phrase I commonly here about in the gym “I’m trying to bulk up”. I was in the gym the other night and I was training with these body builders you know who I mean the big guys you find in every gym that you look at and think “your on steroids” All I kept hearing was were bulking up for summer and I could tell looking at their belly’s.
I’m sure that body building is not all about being big is it? To me it’s about size and shape.
“Bulking up” is used to define the muscle gaining phase of a body builders diet, while “Cutting” is used to define the process of fat loss while maintaining muscle to get more definition.
When training I think your routine should be bulk up over winter it cold and you tend to eat more the Cut up for the summer the time you want to be seen out in your t-shirts looking well defined.

As many know England are wanting to be considered as hosts for the 2018 world cup but they have now launched a back up plan if their bid fails. This is simply to be considered as hosts for the 2022 World Cup also.
The Football Association made official bids for both tournaments on Monday and will be in the race for 2022 as long as the 2018 hosts are not European.
Fifa will choose the hosts for 2018 and 2022 in December 2010.
Countries have been asked to declare their intention to bid for just one of the two tournaments or to prepare presentations to host either.
Countries submitted bids include The Netherlands and Belgium, Australia, United States, Russia, Mexico, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea and Qatar. A joint bid from Spain and Portugal is also likely before the deadline closes on Monday.
The next stage will be to present Fifa with details of stadiums, transport and hotels needed to stage the event.
South Africa will host the 2010 World Cup and the 2014 event will be in Brazil.

Its make or break tomorrow night for Amir Kahn as he takes on Antonio Barrera. Kahn claims he is in the best shape of his life and he is going to need to be in the best shape if he wants to stop the Mexican.
The fight takes place this weekend at the MEN Arena, live on Sky Box Office. And many feel that this is it for Khan if he fails to see off his opponent.
The Kahn camp is confident he has the ability to become the first man since Manny Pacquiao in 2003 to stop Barrera
The promoters are pushing for Saturday’s fight to be made an eliminator for the WBO lightweight title, currently held by Barrera’s Mexican rival Juan Manuel Marquez.
