RICKY HATTON will be offered a £30million super-fight against Oscar De La Hoya at the new Wembley Stadium if he beats Jose Luis Castillo here tonight. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/2007/06/23/i-ll-fight-ricky-at-wembley-89520-19343732/ Ricky Already Beat Jose.... So It Probly Will Happen I Doubt Ricky Will Knock Back 30 Million
He should say no....fight Floyd for more.....but Oscar is the only guy that can offer that kind of $.
and that's in ****en UK pounds! :admin Imagine if this fight went ahead - how pissed off would PBF be at not getting his rematch with DLH?
Dunno if he would make more vs PBF? PBF would be full of 'calling da shots' and 'pimpin Ricky out' during negotiations...Hatton shld accept DLHs offer and PBF can sit back and get the shits about not getting another big payday vs DLH :rofl
I'm starting to think that Oscar has stopped giving a f*ck about adding W's to his record rather than L's, but more interested in the $$$$..I think Hatton will end up beating De La Hoya, and Oscar probably knows it. Does any1 here agree with this notion?Do boxers normally tend to head down that path when they're past their peak? but can still make top $$$ nonetheless.30 million Pounds, god, how much will Oscar earn then??
Hatton will have to come in heavier for the fight and will not be busy enough with Oscar outpointing him as Hatton will not have a favourable ref letting the clinching rule the fight. Oscar TKO or boring UD
That farce in Manchester still pisses me off! But Kostya let it happen! He should have enforced a neutral ref at the very least in the contract negotiations! But even with the weight advantage Oscar will have I think Hatton will be a handful for him with his smothering style!
I dont mind watching Hattons effort in his fights, he is always keen as mustard to make sure his fans are treated well but god dam his fighting style is annoying to watch. "Hook and Hold Hatton" - Kellerman. Id rather watch Hatton vs Cotto than Hatton vs PBF or Dela Hoya. Hatton vs Cotto is probably the best matchup in the sport at the moment.
i havent seen a great deal of hatton but from what i have seen i think he stops de la hoya late bcuz of the way de la hoya fades in fights but i think pbf beats hatton comfortably pbf beats any1 on points
There is a big weight difference. I highly doubt that Oscar could make 147 anymore. But still the figure mentioned would be almost 75 million dollars Australian. Boggles the mind. I think the fight itself would go to Oscar. Oscar can box, and I would expect him to use that Jab against Ricky, and be too good in close quarters. I think it could be an interesting fight however.
