    According to B-Scene.

    Oscar sent Hatton an offer over the weekend for a "one shot deal" to fight in the UK as Oscar doesn't intend to make this a full on comeback.

    At 147? A blown-up Hatton against a zombie DLH?

    I'm assuming this atrocity will be a PPV?

    I hope if it does happen, the result is a draw.
    So none of them win, and just retire. Again.

    It didn't specify a weight.

    My guess is it's at Light Middleweight with a nice WBC Diamond Belt attached to it.

    This is DLH we're talking about, I'm sure he'd make Hatton come up to 154 lbs, and would'nt be suprised he'd have the audacity to make the fight heavier than that like 156 lbs.

    Smart thinking from a smart guy

    Britain is boxing crazy, America has gone off the boil with there being no American Heavyweights anymore and youngsters preffering American Football and athletics to boxing

    Any de la hoya fight would will out the millenium stadium, the MEN arena, the 02, you name it and it would be filled

    De la hoya sells in the UK, Hatton sells in the UK, it would be at a British time which would suit casual fans of the sport and the PPV would be through the roof.

    Hatton is a 140 fighterm De la Hoya normally fights at 154, make it 147 for a fair fight which would probably favour De la Hoya more but he would lose the weight properly instead of killing himself like he did against Pacquiao

    Stil, I dont think it will happen, cant see either of them fighting again.
