Match has sold 42,000 tickets in four hours in the U.K. They were also talking a potential Pac vs Hatton fight. That fight would do huge, huge numbers.
God for Pac's sake lets hope he isnt fighting Hatton. That would be a easy UD for hatton. And in this case UD=ultimate death
Wow, people love them some Ricky Hatton. 42,000 in 4 hours for what should be a less than spetacular fight against a guy who doesn't have too much in him anymore. The Pac-Hatton potential showdown makes sense and a lot of $$$. When Pac moves up and takes D Diaz' 135 pound title, he and Hatton will be champions just 1 division removed. Easy to sell as a potential 50/50 fight at that point. Even though it won't be, Hatton will sodomize Pac.
Nice - Hatton already proved he's a Cash Cow - but he has the skills to back it up. 42K is nice - all of can imagine the numbers he could put up against someone of equal or higher status.
The stadium capacity for the Hatton fight is 55,000. Looks like they should make figure easily. Alll the cheaper seats are gone now.
I am a fan of the Hispanic Causing Panic, but not having fought in over a year, and coming off a loss, and seemingly to have lost a step, this is a bad fight for him against Hatton.
