    If Hatton beats Pacquiao (which I'm starting to believe can happen) and then goes on to beat Marquez then the rematch has to happen.

    Will it become the biggest selling box office fight of all time? I think it would.

    hmm says that's a big IF.... and Mayweather Sr. would prolly go back to PBF to patch up a damaged history.... but yeah I reckon it will be a big sellout (not all-time) even though I'm not looking forward to a possible rematch.

    Father against Son already happened with Oscar.
    A Hatton/PBF rematch would put just as many rumps in Europe in seats, but I don't see it getting the same US or Asia market share that it did last time (much less expand any of those markets).

    If rumours of Floyd coming back are true, then I really hope he
    fights either Pac, Mosely or Cotto..

    No disrespect to Hatton - and I know he has improved a lot since
    his Mayweather fight - but, I just couldnt see him ever beating Floyd..

    Pac and Floyd interests me a lot - as Im sure it does everyone, but
    Pac still has to get through Hatton before he can be a potential
    match up for Floyd, I suspect he will beat Hatton aswell..

    Mosely and Mayweather is the fight I want to see though.
    Its also a fight that I reckon Mayweather would be seriously looking
    at, because at the end of the day - if he cant beat Sugar Shane at
    the age Mosely is at, then he wouldnt of got close to a prime Mosely.

    Mayweather Vs Cotto is the most unlikely out of the 3 fights I mentioned.
    Cotto has a lot of upside and a few unknowns, Floyd could come out
    and flog him - or then on the other side of the coin, he could get shown
    up by a fighter on the up, I wouldnt think he'd consider this fight, I
    see too many unknown risk factors..

    Only my opinion for what its worth.

    Wont happen. Hatton would likely lose to both. But anyway, same result if the two fought again

    You're absolutely right - he was switched out for Roach! Thanks for catching that. My dumb mistake... I can only promise that it won't be my first or last. ;-)

    i think hatton has a better chance of beating pac and jmm back to back than he does of beating pbf in a rematch. i like ricky too, i only say this b/c i think ricky is a little too big at his natural weight of 140 for pac and jmm who are naturally lighter. i also say this b/c i highly doubt pbf would come down to 140 to face ricky. ricky would have to come up to face him and we know how well ricky has done at 147, especially in his first fight w/ pbf. having said that, of course i will watch (buy) the fight and im sure it will make a **** ton of money.

    (i also think if pac were to win, he would be in a position to tell pbf to f off if he doesnt want to come down in weight to face him b/c there would be other huge fights pac could make...so part of me wants pac to win for that reason.)

    I think its funny that the fans looking for a rematch between Hatton and Floyd are the same fans that say JC doesnt need to give BHOP a rematch. Floyd KO'd your boy and no Hatton doesnt deserve a rematch. Where as JC barely beat BHOP and was KD in the process. Hypocrites...You guys are a ****ing joke.

    i think hatton will get smoked in a rematch no doubt about it...but i think its the most likely scenario. i would like to see pac beat ricky b/c i think he could force pbf to come down to him but i think ricky may be a bit too much for pac.

    Every fan of JC that is also a fan of Hatton's. That pretty much covers it.
