Mayweather: "Hatton Needs A WWE Contract"

I would love to see Floyd fight Mosely. I think Mosely would really challenge Floyd. I would be a close fight for about 6 or 7 rounds, and then Floyd would take over down the stretch.

 

I have seen a lot of names in this thread, none of them are the one I want to hear. Hatton is the easiest match up for Floyd. I think thats why Floyd is pursuing this fight. Maybe Miguel "the wrecking ball" Cotto needs to start calling Mayweather a ***** and ****** on TV. He is obviously the toughest fight for Mayweather right now !!!!

 

Good point. Though Cotto is too respectful a fighter and wouldn't throw any names at Floyd. If he did it would have to be 2X as provoative and dirty since he has a way bigger chance to upset Floyd. I agree that this will be an easy fight for Floyd and i'm sticking to it.:deal

 

It is very possible that Hatton will be the best opponent that Floyd has ever faced. There are arguments to be made that Castillo was better in his prime (though, I don't really think so) or that De La Hoya, even as he is now, was better. This is a reasonably disputable argument, one that I personally have no problem with.

There is absolutely no argument that Floys is by far the best opponent that Hatton has ever faced. Hatton has never fought a fighter as gifted as Floyd, or even one that is close to it. There can be no reasonable argument on this point.

People who say that Floyd is either A) taking the easy way out or B) fighting someone who he can easily beat need to take a step back and examine the facts a little bit. While Hatton may not be the absolute best fighter than Floyd can face right now, there is certainly no shame in squaring off with the hitman. Mosley might be a better option, Cotto might be a better option, but really, Ricky Hatton is without a doubt a top notch opponent. He is absolutely a world class fighter, and if Floyd "beats him easily" than Floyd deserves very very much respect for easily beating one of the best opponents out there.

The word is Hatton has offered Floyd 10 million dollars to fight him. In my eyes, this is an absolutely ludicrous and insulting offer. The reason isn't because 10 million dollars is necessarily too low, for instance, I don't know exactly how much money Hatton-Mayweather would actually make, but because I've yet to read how much money Hatton would actually make.

If Floyd gets 10 million and Hatton gets 10 million +1 dollar the offer is an insulting absolutely void proposition. For these fighters, a percentage split of the total revenue seems to be the fairest of options. Offering Floyd a dollar amount without specifying exactly how much hatton will be making is a total insult.

Floyd can't expect to make 20 million dollars from his next fight. It is absolutely a fantasy if he thinks Hatton is CAPABLE of giving him De La Hoya dollars. However, Hatton is not in a position to be offering Floyd a capped dollar amount without disclosing exactly how much he plans on earning.

 

2 fights for mayweather cotto or hatton anything less and hes gay

 

Nah **** . . . here we go again.:-(

And the trashing and bullshitting begins . . .

 

Style?? Mayweathers style is to BOX.. Hattons is to grab and hit.. Mayweather could teach him alot about BOXING.

 

Hey Newbie, I think you're nuts.. Hatton is no where near the best fighter that PBF will fight.. What the hell are you smoking?

 

A fair post but 2 points..Hatton has faced an opponent on a par with Mayweather,someone called Tszyu,although Tszyu gassed towards the end those middle rounds fighting a fighter just as good as Mayweather is worth at least equal in term of experience to all Hattons other fight put together.The 2nd point is if Mayweather does not like the offer he should better the offer to have it in America if that is so important to him or move aside and let DeLaHoya have a crack at fighting Hatton,is doesn't just stop with Mayweather for Hatton.

 

Huh? :yikes

In case he fights Mosley and not Coto or Hatton you would call him gay???
:think

atsch :-( :huh

 

if he fights and beats mosely it will mean nothing apart to americans the 2 best fighters out there are cotto and hatton beat these he gets world recognition but he aint good enough end of

 

The question I guest is welter which is good for Rick because Floyd is small welter both should weight the same. I was impressed by the way Rick dominated Tszyu which is one of the strongest fighter I have seen.

 

very true

 

I'd agree with that. Hatton is man enough to take the **** out of himself. Gayrunner takes himsself WAAAAAAAY too seriously. To see him on 24/7 counting some of his money.:nut What a dipstick!!

 

Correct. Remember it was Fraud Gayrunner that called out Hatton. All the Hattons have done is make a very substantial offer.

'You think you can beat Rick, Mr Gayrunner? Here's 10million dollars. Come over and have a go then you poof/*****/******/track star':hey
