    If Hatton had beaten Pacquiao where would their respective careers be?

    Just before the weigh in Mosley was interviewed and said he wanted the winner. If Hatton had beaten Pac then Mosley would most certainly have beaten Hatton IMO

    Would we now be crying out for a Mosley v Mayweather fight?

    If so and Mayweather hammered Mosley as he did there would be no bitching about who the best welterweight of the era was! :bbb

    Who would Pacquiao fight after this? Or would he now be a full time politician?

    Yeah i'm bored! Anyone got any other scenarios following a Hatton win over the Pacman?

    If Hatton had beaten Pacquiao, they would've had an immediate rematch in which Pacquiao was allowed to use both hands and remove his blindfold.

    Im trying to help you , but I cannot think of one scenario where Hatton beats Manny.

    Its not nice but I have won the following on Hatton.

    1. Mayweather in 10 - 33 to 1 £20 bet.

    2. Manny in 2 - 40 - 1 £10 bet.

    On another side I won on the Hopkins Pascal draw - 25 to 1 !!!

    Cheers guys but its hypothetical!

    Just say Hatton had done the unthinkable Sugar Shane might have ended up p4p king for a while again!

    On second thoughts Mayweather would have come out of retirement a litle earlier for a mega payday!

    Mosley-Hatton would have been cold blooded murder. The end would have been like a scene out of Taggart.

    I personally think they would have got Hatton and Khan together. Both in reasonable shape, it would have been huge! Too financially viable to turn down.

    The winner of that would probably have taken on Mayweather. (In Hattons case, again).

    This. Possibly in the UK. I remember reading an interview with Floyd shortly after Hatton lost to Pacquiao, basically stating that losing to him cost himself a potential rematch.

    Hatton would still be fighting and not doing as much drugs. We'd have seen Hatton-Bradley, maybe Hatton-Khan. Pac would have gone back down to 135.

    Only because most people seemed to think Pacquiao was the size of the average mans thumb.

    That's my thoughts.

    I think Shane would have got put on the back burner while Ricky tried to avenge his loss to Mayweather.

    Personally, even though I'm more of a Hatton fan, I just can't see Hatton winning the rematch with Floyd because Hatton is one dimensional and Floyd adapts so well.

    In other news, I think Pacquaio would have taken the opportunity to fight Shane and land a big payday. Either that or JMM.

    Now that I type that out, I kind of wish Hatton would have won that fight. Would have made for better fights for us fans.

    Also, Hatton wouldn't be cheating on his woman and doing coke on camera.

    Mosley would have landed a big payday (he deserves one).

    Floyd The Mouth versus the Ricky Th Midget 2 would have happened

    Hell, maybe even JMM would have gotten some payday action.

    Much better scenario than how it all turned out, IMO.
