    Floyd DOES need Hatton, but not for the reasons some are claiming. Hatton is Floyd's way of avoiding Cotto!

    what a fighter gets paid has little to do with his p4p rankings. . . it has everything to do with how many tickets and PPV's he sells. . . thats why Hatton will be paid more.

    Yea what about my prediction of DLH PBF? PBF UD, almost on point. DLH was old, 34 years old. Young lions like Cotto and Hatton will KO Mayweather.

    Did you hear Hatton fans singing songs? There were thousands of Hatton fans who came to America. Would Floyd fans go abroad to cheer for him? No. Floyd doesnt have fans, he creates interest among boxing fans because he is undefeated and p4p #1 but those arent his fans.

    I'd say they have equal motivation, its a big pay day for both, i feel Hatton would bend his terms more, despite what he quotes he has the chance to end up probably Britains biggest boxing legend and that would be a huge honour for him, need's not really the word for either, want is defiantely more like it I sense PBF feels he's not been taken seriously enough so will want to have a final flourish and if he won lay claim to be teh best of the modern age ...and rightly so...if he wins!

    6,000 people. Hatton is the biggest thing going in Manchester, maybe even bigger then the United, well maybe not that big. Few people from the states would travel to see any fighter, we just arent as attached to fighters like that. We have many many other fighter, and or teams to root for. We dont put all our eggs in one basket.
