    because these yanks (golden boy and mayweather) wet their pants when they saw how many brits travelled to watch Hatton fight, paid pay per view and the atmosphere they created in the stadium!!

    furthermore Floyd is desperate to fight in the Uk because he has a distorted perception of his popularity over here due to a recent promotional visit to a gym in East London when a load of college kids packed the place out....

    also cause he knows he could plsay with Hatton like a little baby and put on an exhibition of his skills...


    this is why people are switching to mma

    who knows. Totally ridiculous. Floyd should have stayed retired. All Floyd does is waste everyone's time with fights he should win and talk about big fights. Why not let other fighters who fight at their level take the spotlight. He should retire if he is not willing to fight the best- and he is not willing to fight the best.

    the only way this would sell ppv in britain was if floyd agreed to fight with one arm behind his back.

    He meets Floyds criteria of a low risk fight. PAC didn't.....although many thought the kind of money that would be on the table would get Floyd to accept the fight....not even $40 Mill could do it.

    Whoever heard of Matthew Hatton before his name was mentioned as opponent of Mayweather???

    I read about him here in Australia because he fought an Australian-based fighter, but other than than, never heard.

    You nake it appear like this is the first time that Floyd walked away from big money fight. He refused the 25 million dollars in the Hoya fight despite the floydettes claiming that was an easy fight for Mayweather.

    Cos uk fans are the most loyal - and blind. they ll cross continents to support a pom- and even cheer when he gets knocked out! after both or rickys ko s they were still singing "theres only ooooonee ricky hattoooon!". What i mean is- they dont care if their guys wins, loses, whatever- they just want a chance to get pissed- and this is as good as any- and thats why they ll pay. Floyd s crew knows this- thats why they know its worth the money. not pacquiao money- but still maybe 400 000ppv- and considering matty will only take 10 percent- floyd will still get his 10 million or so.
