Crap man, it was true all along. Floyd is going to fight Matthew Hatton. What a ****ing disgrace. He wasn't kidding when he said he was coming back to try and steal fans' money.
If the Pacquiao fight simply CANT be made, Floyd should wait till summer and fight the Berto/Mosley winner
he was ranked 53 by the IBO computerised rankings last time I checked (earlier this month.) Is he even ranked in any Organisation's top 25 welters? This is like Apollo Creed picking out club fighter Rocky Balboa for a title shot. That was a movie where you can get away with bull****. How can Floyd even justify this? :-(
I say Floyd and Pac will fight in March, and Malinaggi/Mathew Hatton fight would be a good undercard.
What happens to no one is available right now at 147? Clottey is available. Williams is available. Why they see only Matthew Hatton as the available WW?
It's clear they are pushing the fight back for a later date, if this is serious....somebody doesn't want this fight for march 13th....and i'm not sure who it is?
last I heard Clottey was fighting Rosales in January and Williams just had a fight at 160....lets be serious now
Only Mayweather fans could contrive a way to rank Matthew Hatton alongside Malignaggi. Intellectually bereft.
What do you expect from that shower of **** mayweather crew, voids been mugging the boxing public for years now & Hatton fits the bill nicely as it max reward min risk, voids def no mug, he's got boxing $$$$ survival stamped all over him. He's avoided Margo/Mosley/Cotto/Williams + bugged out of the DLH re-match (I bet he regrets that now) & now he's character assassinated Pacman who he wants no part of after the Cotto TKO. I thought Floyd said Pac's an easy nights work, one dimensional fighter excetra blar ****in blar but when his uncle said he was shocked when Pac battered Cotto thats when we get all this **** about olympic drug tests & refusing to fight outside Vegas + when have you ever known Floyd to agree tearms so fast???? then pile in with an outrageous accusation from that crackhead dad of his, what are they scared of?? That mayeather crew are total scum,floyd willnever risk his (0) & they don't give a flying **** if you luve-em or hate-em as you'll PAY & always PAY see him win or lose, Getting wiped out by Pacman is the end of the mayweather gravy train & far to risky so it makes sense if he can suck in some more of these mug fights as it'll still sell out over here & you know it, it's all about the easy $$$$$$, proberbly all bluff from GBP but maybe not, as i said above this fight would get 50K sell out over here + PPv, not from me, but joe public would by into the Mayweather/Hatton con job seeing now that Void has blackened Pacman's name & got away with it.
Even if they push Pac-Floyd to a later date, with the same demands it can't be made. BTW, March 13 is Pacquiao's date with Paulie. Floyd-Matthew needs to find another date.
Clottey backed out from the Rosales fight (less money and not on HBO). Clottey is available. Hope Floyd fights Clottey instead of Matthew.
