Ricky Hatton reveals the extent of Floyd Mayweather’s foolishness

If this story is anything to go by, then Ricky Hatton's book 'War and Peace: My Story' is a must-read.

The former welterweight champion shares several stories from his fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2007, but none more incredible than this... As the two fighters were in their private jets on the way to New York to promote the event, Mayweather was apparently unhappy that his plane was behind Hatton's. 'A few minutes into the the journey, we’re chatting away, having a drink when the pilot gestures to me to come forward. "Hey Ricky, listen to this idiot",' reveals Hatton. 'He turns on the speaker and over the radio I hear Floyd arguing with the pilot of his plane behind: “I’m not letting that motherf**ker get there before me, f**king overtake them!” '“We can’t do that, Sir” the pilot said. “Overtake that motherf**ker – I’m the champ! I’ve got to get to New York first. I’ll pay whatever you want.”' As Hatton rightly points out: “What’s the point of being the world’s best fighter if everyone thinks you’re a d**khead?” H/T BJPenn
