Seems pointless to me.Just alot of $$ for both men. Hatton maybe more competitive because he has Floyd Sr in his corner but then again Mayweather may stop him quicker second time around
i think hatton should conentrate on the guys at light welter - if floyd wants the rematch then he needs to come down that weight - if hatton was to go back up then he gets beat again easily ..
Pac fight off due to unfair conditions - as iithought the hattons say 1 thing & when it finally comes out pacman was being pressurised
only on hold,hadn't paid anything. we are going to go anyway, treat it as a holiday. there will be a big fight that weekend even if its not hatton. (and the vegas pool parties will still be on:yep) quietly, i am still pretty confident the fight happens. Give it a fortnight and it will be back on i reckon. Too much money for pac to remain a twat:good
I'd love to see Hatton take on the Juan Diaz/JMM winner. Hatton - Diaz is a fight I've been craving to see for a long time, so I'm hoping he comes through against JMM.
Arum didnt **** up Ricky did. Take into consideration Pacs words: "I want to fight Ricky Hatton if the terms are right and fair. Modesty aside, I did not become the best pound-for-pound fighter by fighting patsies on my way to the top. I beat Oscar Dela Hoya when he said he was still on top of his game. I proved I can fight at any weight level and I won two different titles in two different divisions, also, last year. Now, I say to Ricky Hatton, king of the 140 pound division, 'Let's get it on,' without the middlemen. You called me out, now I say we fight." Former flyweight champ, multiweight champ, P4P king, moved up to 147 and didnt just beat DLH he demolished him against all the odds. Thats an ATG and Manny fully deserves a 60-40 split. If Ricky wanted the fight and was interested in the fans he`d fight Manny. But instead he wants to take on more lightweights/super feathers whilst still making a killing at the fans expense. **** Ricky and **** the gravy train he rode in on. Now im off to **** his ugly mug up mroe on Fight Night.:fire
No, he wants to fight Manny. He's just not willing to wait until the summer before he arranges his next fight. Even Roach and Arum are having trouble getting hold of Pac. I'd guess Hatton just wants to take out of the fight financially something like the amount he is putting in. I'd assume the 50/50 figure already included the allowance for Pacs greatness and P4P ranking against the income Hatton brings to the fight. Either way, **** it. It either happens or ir doesn't.
totally agreed, pac is number one and now its his time to bring in the big bucks he deserves at least 55% hatton has got way too big for his boots, id like to see hatton face someone at 140 rather than diaz or jmm, bradley would be first choice and then we will see if hatton is the best at 140 because malignaggi certainly wasnt his biggest threat at 140, he was tailormade for hatton
Wont make a blind bit of diffrence. Its abundantly clear the only thing Ricky is interested in is money. He takes on the least risk for the best reward. I mean Hatton Marquez? Give me a ****ing break. Not long ago Marquez was a featherweight. And Ricky cant find a live body at 140 to fight? Why keep calling himself the best man at 140 when he wont fight the best fighters at his weight? He refused to face Witter. He certainly isnt going to face Bradley Torres or Holt. His talked himself out of Pac because he believes he deserves and even split even though its abundantly clear the star here is PacMan and not him. And yet his same line is "im doing this for me fans" He then delivers us Lazcano who hadnt fought in 18 months and Paulie which was a PPV failure and by FAR the weakest belt holder in 140lbs history. Ricky is a consumate fraud. **** him.
