Anybody know the origin on how/when the chant started?

It’s an old football/ soccer chant. Boxing fans 99% also fans who go to football games here.

RIP. Great fighter. Real sad his life spiralled

Im from the UK and the hype for Hatton/ Mayweather here was crazy. There was a lot of delusion over here. Remember arguing with my friends that Hatton would lose and people were certain Hatton was going to knock him out. And this isn’t just a race thing. All my friends (none of them white) were thinking Hatton would win and wanted him to.

The biggest delusion was Lederman thinking Hatton was winning the fight before the ko
