WBC and WBO lightweight champion Diego Corrales is ready to step up a weight and fight Ricky Hatton in an amazing double-bill involving Joe Calzaghe.

Corrales wants to face Hatton on the same card as Welshman Calzaghe's projected super middleweight unification with Jeff Lacy in November.

Gary Shaw, who promotes both Corrales and Lacy, says he is already in talks to hold the fight in Cardiff.

That proposal would see 60,000 fans packed into the Millennium Stadium.

Shaw was ringside with his fighters to see Hatton's sensational win over former IBF light welterweight king Kostya Tszyu on Sunday morning.

"Diego would love to come to Britain and make a super-fight with Ricky," Shaw said

I have been talking with (American pay-per-view network) Showtime today about making the fight on the same card as Calzaghe-Lacy in one of your biggest arenas.

"It is something that could really happen and it is the biggest fight out there at the moment.

"Diego never takes a backward step and neither does Ricky - it would be an incredible fight.

"He is the man Diego wants and he is willing to come to Britain to get him."

Corrales holds the WBC and WBO lightweight titles, having stopped Jose Luis Castillo last month in a war most ringsiders described as one of the greatest in boxing history.

Hatton's rival light welterweight champions - WBC holder Arturo Gatti, WBO title holder Miguel Cotto and WBA champion Vivian Harris - have already all expressed an interest in fighting the Mancunian next.

But the move by Corrales' camp throws another spicy option into the mix.

Manchester's MEN Arena saw 22,000 packed in to watch Hatton beat Tszyu.

The same venue had been mooted as a possible site for when WBO king Calzaghe faces Lacy - providing the IBF holder gets past Robin Reid in a title defence in Florida on 6 August.

But Cardiff was the other suggested place and the Millennium Stadium would be ideal to hold what would be one of the biggest ever boxing promotions on British soil.

only 60,000 :O cardiff can hold 75,000 :D that would be a amazing fight but with warren as a promoter i can't see him doing 2 for the price of 1 with his 2 biggest supastars :D

yea, i think that this would be very exciting

throw winkyu wright onto that card too..LAcy winky corrales all went to watch the hatton fight. They are all promoted by Shaw and should be on a MEGA ppv

How stupid would it be for Corrales to go fight Hatton in England. I know he would get paid alot of money & that card would draw a massive amount of British fans, but it would be stupid because the roughouse tactics would probably be allowed. Hatton would put his chin in Diegos chest & push him, hold him, rabbit punch. The ref probably would let it go on because it suits Hatton & Corrales would have a hard time getting full extension on his punches. Hatton has a lower base so he would be able to muscle him & not allow him to do that. Lacy on the other hand is much stronger than Calzaghe & it wouldn't matter there. WHY GO TO ENGLAND TO FIGHT? America is the MECCA of boxing. Make them come here! An American trained ref would not allow it to be a grappling match & Corrales would pick Hatton apart. I think Lacy will win regardless, but unless there is a ref alot more competent than the one in Hatton vs Tszyu Corrales will have a hard time. ITS SO ****IN STUPID IF THAT HAPPENS UNLESS A SMOGER OR CORTEZ REFS THE FIGHT & I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS POSSIBLE.

Hatton will KO Corralles

Hatton will KO Corralles

Not in this life time.

Hatton will KO Corralles

Yup, be fun to watch though.

Corrales is going for history...this man wants to make history and wants to do it in big ways...

Not in this life time.
He goes down way to easy for a puncher like HAtton, It will be a beating, i dont think he will do good at 140, i dont think he will carry his power up.

OMG
look at that avtar!!!!
LMAO
wtf doesnt even begin to cover it

Hatton will KO Corralles


poor tszyu has'nt fought a brawler in years.he showd it. and he couldn't keep up or neutralize hattons workrate always pushing forward with most of the time wild wide punches.corrales knows alot about that style.

corrales kept up with castillos workrate and brawling style. and power wise i think castillo is up there with hatton and is more exact with his punches. and chico will be bigger and stronger and have more power at higher weight. theyre talking about it being in brittian but i hope like hell it would be state side. staple center los angeles would be nice. california has a new straight boxing commissioner and you can bet the ref will be clean. corrales will have plenty of time to rest and get over the war by november.

He goes down way to easy for a puncher like HAtton, It will be a beating, i dont think he will do good at 140, i dont think he will carry his power up.
He will not lose any power at all. Its only five ****in pounds. Corrales has been having a hard time makin 135 so how would he lose power. He is 5'11 & in between fights probably walks around at 150lbs+. "He goes down way too easy for a puncher like Hatton". PLEASE. Castillo was just as good a puncher as Hatton & has a better chin (never knocked down much less stopped). If there is a competent referee who deoesn't allow the grappling & dirty tactics (whether in England or not) Corrales will win. His punches are way crisper, he is more technically sound & just as tough. Corrales by KO in 7th if ref wants to see boxing not UFC.

ive read corrales walks around at 160. some people have wondered for years why he didn't move up. he's always said he's never had a problem making weight.

i think 5lbs does make a different. on his frame it can mean more power. less dehydration. i can see chico being 150 on fight night.

Hatton will KO Corralles

corrales by ko

Corrales is going for history...this man wants to make history and wants to do it in big ways...
Yeah... I've got so much respect for this guy. Other P4P fighters like Bernard & Floyd keep fighting guys like Allen & Brusseles.

Corrales only wants BIG fights... And boy does he pick them!

I wish people would stop speaking **** about the ref in the Hatton vs Tszyu fight, are you ****ing blind??

Back to the topic,

Putting Mayweather next to Hopkins when it comes to lame opponents is wrong mate, i know Mayweathers fought some **** fighers recently but that only because of the move up weight(he was a very small guy for 140), in the past he's only fought the best, unlike that ***** Hopkins.

I admire chico's guts! If push though this will be another phone booth fight blockbuster but then again ricky won't be fighting outside home. When will he ever go to da states to fight? :confused:

If I remember correctly, I think it was Charles Barkley who blurted this to the referee. :D

Well, I know Mayweather has fought some great fighters, but his rematch with Castillo was way back in 2002', and since then he's fought - Victorino "Blasted out in 4rds by Cotto" Sosa, - Phillipe "The pudding" Ndou, - Demacus "slop slop" Corley, - and Henry "is this guy even ranked?" Brusseles...

Whereas Diego Corrales has fought Casamayor twice, Frietas, & Castillo in the last 18 months alone.

Corrales is now saying that he wants to fight the best light-welterweight in the World 26yr old Ricky Hatton...

And Floyd Mayweather is fighting old Gatti... (I like Gatti, he's been in some amazing fights over the years but he's a bit shot these days and personally I'd rate him about 7th or 8th in the light-welterweight division at the moment). I think there's a lot of fighters at 140lbs I'd tip to beat him.

I do have massive respect for Diego Corrales... He's not taking any breaks and he's hunting out the best in each division.

Other P4P fighters like Bernard & Floyd keep fighting guys like Allen & Brusseles.

Corrales only wants BIG fights... And boy does he pick them!

Hopkins is fighting the best middleweight in Taylor next. Still sour over Eastman's loss eh? Ah well. ;)

Also, Eleviel...wish in one hand and **** in the other and see which fills up faster. The ref in the Tszyu-Hatton fight was a joke. I've said all along the fight was fair. Both fighters fought dirty and welcomed it. However, any competent ref penalizes BOTH fighters for their tactics and MAKES them fight by the rules...period. You don't only enforce the rules when only one guy is fighting dirty. The rules are to be enforced every round, every minute. Also, the dirty tactics DID favor Hatton, no matter how you slice it because he won the fight. So it is understandable that people questioned the refs motives.

Personally, I think even with a competent ref that Corrales will lose to Hatton. It would a huge win for Corrales if he won and certainly would cement his legacy even further, but Corrales will not win a war with Hatton. People just need to open their eyes. Hatton is a strong dude, thicker and fresher than Castillo and just as rough. Castillo does not have the mental will to box Hatton all night. He will give in to Hatton's style and brawl.

Thats like me saying Hatton is fighting Pederson or Calzaghe is fighting Mario Veit. My bad he fought Veit twice.

;) You again!... Personally I think the best middleweight in the World right now is Winky Wright. (I was VERY impressed with the way he filled out at 160lbs).

Bernard has pubicly said that he won't fight Wright. :rolleyes: hhmmm... Perhaps he know's he'll be made to look stupid?

Taylor's a good fighter, but I think over-rated... Hopkins ain't stupid, he won't take a fight unless he's positive he can win it.

That's why he'll fight Taylor but he won't fight Wright.

That's why he'll fight Taylor but he won't fight Wright.

Taylor is not overrated by most people I think people see he is not polished totally yet, but he is aggressive and has good power and size and youth. He is the best middleweight outside of Hopkins, tied with Wink or just behind him since Winky has only had one fight at 160 vs a former welterweight.

Winky cannot make Nard look stupid. I might even pick Wink to win, maybe, but only because Hopkins is older now. Even if they would fight, Hopkins might lose but wouldn't be made a fool out of. Too smart for that.

Tszyu was 100% positive he would beat Hatton, look what happened. I'm sure Roy thought he would beat Tarver in the rematch...etc. etc. Hopkins is older and the clock is ticking. I don't think he is 100% confident he will win anyway, which is why we had the bickering over terms before the contract was settled.

Hopkins scheduled to fight Taylor before Winky beat Tito. Hopkins has stated his intentions all along of fighting Taylor, then the winner of Tarver-Johnson, and recently added a Roy rematch in his plans as his last fight. Hopkins is retiring in or before January so he's not going to stick around to fight everyone. I agree it would be good to fight Winky so I can see Hopkins lose perhaps, but you can't blame him for not fighting Winky when he's fighting guys like Taylor, Tarver, Johnson, Roy etc...which means finally fighting some guys bigger than him.

Back to the topic,

Hatton vs Corrales & Calzaghe vs Lacy

Now that would be a night of boxing.

Perhaps this needs to restated.

If there's even a chance of this happening that's big news. It would be arguably the biggest double-bill of the decade so far, yet people want to argue about Wright and Hopkins?

i owuodnt get oo excited just yet i covered the press conference for the Calzaghe V Johnson and Hatton V mitchell double header that was scheduled for june last year


neither fight happened.

boxing is a funny game, lots can happen between now and next year.

who should hatton go to america to fight a guy who holds no
belts at that weight. if he was fighting gatti, mayweather
or whoever else is holding belts at his weight fair enough.

hatton is calling the shots for 2 reasons. hes the champ at the weight
theyde be fighting at & he will likely fill the 60,000 seater millenium
stadium and make it one of the uks biggest fights in recent history.

ok maybe corrales could fill a 60,000 seater stadium.

hatton will need to fight in the us in a major fight to win over
the american boxing fans but for now hes hot property 7 the man to beat

This is becoming the year of upsets... So maybe Taylor can do it? :dunno:

Oh yeah, I'm just having a little fun with you guys...it's just that I see this news on the first post and then jump to end too see people talking about Winky and Hopkins and I'm like what?! :D

While we're talking about this though, you seem to give Hopkins a lot of flak for ducking Winky. Well, at least he's decided not to fight him instead of agreeing to accept millions of dollars and then wussing out with three minutes left in the fight, like a certain Russian-Australian we all know :cool: .

Seriously, though, at 40 it's amazing Hopkins is still fighting at all. Of course he's going to pick and choose his opponents at this point.

By the way how many people here have been to an event at Cardiff's stadium? I've seen it from the outside and the place is incredible...nice location on the water as well.

yeah its an amzing place been ther to watch rugby.

got a roof too so can be open air or closed, so they can put the fight (s) on anytime of year.

Oh yeah, I was wondering about that, I thought it was only outdoors.

To get off topic again, I wish they'd have another fight in Cardiff castle, now that was a cool venue :cool: .

yea that calzaghe jiminez as i remember.

guzman was on the undercard i seem to recall first time we saw him.

calzaghe stank that night against an opponent who came to last the distance and not a lot else.

I remember that night... Guzman "little tyson" looked good, (:rolleyes: I think he won it by 2nd round KO), but Calzaghe was trying everything to get his opponent out of there but just couldn't.

The other guy seemed to have come just last 12 rounds, pick up his cheque and leave.

(p.s... I've been to the millenium stadium "Rugby" and it's a lovely stadium!).

Yes the terrible Calzaghe fight I've seen once but the Guzman fight I have on CD...decent effort and it's cool seeing the castle around it.

What was the last big fight to take place in such a large venue? I know that Kostyz and I'm pretty sure Leija fought in a big stadium in Australia somewhere.

Not so sure about the States.

would be awesome fight.

Corrales would stop Ricky dead in his tracks.

This would be an awesome card if it happened. And you never know, this may not even be on PPV in the US.

If this fight was out doors in one of the huge soccer stadiums, it would be a throwback to the 20s and 30s when more than 100,000 people would see a fight.

Whether you think Hatton will win, or Corrales, this is pretty much a pick-em fight.

the american boxing fans but for now hes hot property 7 the man to beat I see your point, but I believe it is stupid because most likely Hatton will be allowed to use the same roughhouse tactics he did in his last fight. If a guy has his chin in your chest holding your gloves & throwing haymakers it is hard for a real crisp technician like Corrales to do his work. In a fight where the ref keeps them apart & makes them box I believe Corrales skill will take over. I do see what your saying however.

I've only been on this sight for so long but what is up with you Europeans hating on Hopkins. Hopkins is a *****? ******* don't defend their titles twenty straight times over like 11 years. Just face it he beat Eastman w/o wvwn really trying very hard. Calzaghe doesn't deserve a fight with Hopkins. No one in America gives a **** about Calzone oh excuse me Calzaghe. Unless it is fought in Europe no one gives a **** & Calzaghe doesn't deserve that anyway. Let him fight some other top U.S. fighters & if he beats them then he can get the shot.

Nobody in europe give a **** about Hopkins, let him fight some top fighter and then maybe Calzaghe should give him a shot.

Howard Eastman is poor fighter and Hopkins run from him like a little girl, but even though he did that i'm not calling Hopkins a ***** because of his ring ability, its because he calls out names in the US & Europe then refuses to fight them. Its nothing to do with nationallity its to do with him calling himself the best but them *****ing out of the best fights.

Hopkins should retire now because if you put him in a ring with someone like Calzaghe he'd get butchered within a round, he's had a decent career so he should call it a day.

DON'T TAKE THE BLOODY WANKER THING TOO PERSONAL I JUST STRONGLY DISAGREE WITH YOU & HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO SAY THAT. NO HARM MEANT HOPEFULLY NONE DONE.

Who gives a **** its only a forum you bloody wanker :D

Woould be a good fight

nard is ace, i think he is fantastic.
and im british.

nard is ace, i think he is fantastic.
and im british.
Finally someone who see the light. I am new to this forum but it seems like everyone in Europe hates him. Did he **** the queen or something?

so who are all these top guys hopkins has beat to earn respect ?

trinidad haha looked how he fared against winky.
tito isnt even a challenge to the top middleweight boxers .
so delahoya ?. another guy who cant compete at middleweight.
surely not joppy, allen and eastman ?

then theres his loss to jones and his win over glengoffe johnson.

both who stepped up to supermiddleweight, light heavyweight &
in jones case , heavyweight. hopkins has stayed and bullied
physically smaller guys for 11yrs.i hope that either taylor kills
him or hopkins wins, steps up to face tarver & tarver kills him.

The Millenium Stadium can hold 80,000!!

That would shatter the current record of 47,366 from October 1993 which was when Don King co-promoted the Benn-Eubank II 'Judgement Day' at Old Trafford.

....Why would Corales want to subject himself to another brutal war so soon? He's a smart guy who needs to think about life after boxing.

yeah i think thats why ho doesnt want an instant rematch with castillo.
hatton definately would have a great chance of stopping corrales.
how come peeps are saying hattons dirty when corrales's gumshield
spitting possibly had an outcome on that fight with castillo.
