    According to ESPN, Team hatton has made an official offer to Floyd to come out of retirement and fight a rematch...Hatton Father said that he was told that Floyd would consider it, as he is a possible fight with Pac but its unlikely that he would take either fight.

    I just saw this. Well Mayweather has been officially offered a fight. Now let's hear an official announcement from him if he will fight or not.

    My guess is not. Remember he walked away from a 30+ million dollar payday vs Oscar...

    Another boxing website shows an article where Ellorbe tells the media Floyd isn't coming out of retirement to fight either Pac or Hatton

    Another boxing website says that Floyds come out of the closet and wants to stick to salsa dancing from now on.

    Floyd and retirement. Don't you wish he was more like Lennox and would stay retired. Honestly, I am done with Floyd.

    He should only come back for Pac or Margarito.

    Nothing wrong with this fight from Hattons perspective.

    On the other hand PBF should be going after Pac if he's going to fight again.

    The difference between Lennox and Pretty Boy is that Lewis has self-worth and never felt the need to literally throw his money away on multi million $ watches and motors. It is a shame but PBF will end up skint fighting bums for pennies - for sure.

    Still the greatest fighter I have personally ever seen though.

    Forgot to talk about the fight.

    Go Hatton!!! UD @ Wembley Fight of the year!!!! Blood and Glory!!!!!!

    Id still rather he fought Pac but if he fights Hatton at 140 or even a catch-weight in the UK then that is a tough fight so I will respect him for that.

    As long as we get Floyd v Pac this year some time then I dont care who FMJ fights as long as he comes back.
