    How many 50K+ stadiums does Floyd fill on live gate alone?

    Wembley is 100K for live gate alone.

    It would take Floyd about 15-20 more fights to do those numbers at the gate.

    It will be hatton. Floyd will want the lion sum of the share. Hatton can draw in UK and have fans travel and the combination of that and PPV buys will be more than what Floyd can give.

    I personally think Hatton will get destroyed, but as far as who brings in more cash it's gotta be Hatton. Floyd is a bigger name as far as establishing boxing history will be concerned.

    Floyd would be the better fight as he was the P4P #1 when he retired but Hatton is less of a risk so I'm sure that fight will be made.

    Hatton does bring way more money - 100,000 paying euros, not dollars in england. that is indeed a prize.

    I think if Pacquiao wins in the UK, his fight against PBF should be in the Philippines. Mayweather has every advantage, why not give manny the home crowd?

    Pac has proven that he's fought everywhere...well mostly everywhere.

    A fight in the Philippines won't be economically viable at present.

    A fight in England would be good to the economy of the Philippines...
