    I hope so, but I'll wait until I hear it from the horse's mouth.

    This is what Ive been saying.... Pac/Floyd MUST happen 1st because win or lose, Pacman can fight who he wants but if he loses to Hatton (very real chance of that IMO) then thats the mega-fight between the no1 & no2 p4p fighters away to ****.

    Boxing needs fights that can capture the imagination of die hard & casual fans alike... Pac/DLH was such a match & this is even more so IMO.

    Come on, the last time we had the 2 undisputed p4p guys face off was JCC/Whitaker (I might let you have Jones/Toney aswell) this is the perfect chance + the style clash aswell as the opposite characters & upbringing of both men, this has eveything.

    They can call it `battle of the decade` & the winner can rightfully be called FOTD.

    This golden opportunity should not be missed... this fight must be made pronto.

    really an undefeated fighter and former P4P number 1 doesn't deserve a shot at Pac??

    Please!! His retirement was a sham, and he is already expressing interest in this fight.

    You make sense with how Pac in terms of risk and financial reward would be better if he faught Floyd first....Floyd is more risky but expected to loose....but if he lost to Hatton first then the Floyd fight would be up in smoke.

    I give PAC a chance against Floyd but I'd still lean towards Floyd for the "W".....Hatton...I think PAC stops him on cuts...speed, movment and reflexes are just too much.

    IMO hatton first.

    if pac pulls it through, he'll get his

    4th lineal championship.
    no one have done it before even the likes of the so called greats.

    he will be immortalized further.

    I think a few people are alittle worried Hatton might beat Pacman before PBF gets a chance.

    Financially it makes more sense and money if HAtton fought Pacman first then PBF fights Pacman after.There is more money in it for Pacman and less risk than fighting Floyd first.
