    ...according to the BBC website. I dont know if this has already been posted and I know its all hypothetical at the minute, but who would be a good alternative to Pacquiao? And who would be willing to come to the UK? Im thinking is a fight with DLH still a possibility?

    Marquez or Bradley would both be good . Cotto would be the super-fight that everyone would want to see, but it would have to be at Welter .

    the possiblities of a good fight are,bradley,jmm,nate campbell,zab judah, and possibly berto.but at 140 or catch weight.he should avoid cotto and marg.

    i would be happy for him to fight any of the above named.

    Cotto would be good. Hatton's said before he'd be confident of winning so it could happen.

    If this is the case, I would stick my house on it being Oscar @ 150lbs

    JMM only. Bardely is not a big draw, Oscar should retire now, and Cotto, well, Ricky cant fight at welter so no point.

    Yeah, I think DLH would happily take a beating for a big money fight at Wembley stadium.

    Yea, and I wouldnt mind going too, and I would prefer to see Pac v Mayweather. That would be the ideal result of all this.

    I wouldn't want to see Hatton vs DLH - it would be a joke fight.

    The two are, afterall, good friends. In what would be, essentially a novelty fight, you would see very little action of note, and probably a unanimous 114-114 scorecard - to con the casual Brit fans into wanting a rematch - more £££ for all parties.

    Hatton vs Pac/JMM/Berto/Cotto would all be acceptable to me, as would Tim Bradley.

    Nobody else.

    If the Pacquiao fight doesn't happen, I expect to see Zab Judah in Manchester at 140lbs.

    MAJOR FAIL

    Stewart was 26

    Wembley Stadium would hold 100000 for a boxing match, and would be packed to the rafters for DLH.

    It would also be a lock for 2m PPV buys.
