The fight would be big in Vegas and it will sell out. Oscar's biggest numbers, as well as Hatton, were with Floyd Jr. Of course it wasn't all Floyd, since it was Oscar's and Hatton's family most, but Floyd proved to bring that family out in greater portions because he was at the party.
Manny and Hatton would be huge in England...not so sure in the States. Hatton took a big hit when he was KTFO by Floyd in the States. That's why Floyd knows if he were to fight Hatton again; it would have to be in England.
I'm not sure how the numbers work out. Vegas have a smaller venue than Wembley, but Vegas prices are incredibly high to make up for a huge stadium...how high? I don't know what Hatton will charge so we'll see.
The Bigger legacy fight is Floyd Jr.
The Bigger money fight may be Hatton.
I wonder if Floyd Jr. would work with Golden Boy to help promote a fight with Pac....they are better at it and know more people.
