ROACH: "Hatton must stop drinking if he is going to have any chance of avoiding DLH"

Erm.................THIS YEAR Against Lazcano.

It will happen in Vegas.. Live matches in England is like 3-4 am in the morning Philippine time.. The Filipino's in The US will just be seeing delayed telecast. I'll put this fight in Vegas and send the Brits back home with their boy getting knock the F U C K out again!

Want a bet? When was Hatton's last fight in the UK? Erm.................THIS YEAR

Hatton v's Lazcano was at the city of manchester stadium. Hatton v's Pacman will be at Wembley or Cardiff, makes no financial sense what so ever to do it in Vegas. 100000 people at Wembley plus if its on primetime in the UK it will do more PPV on sky box office than it would do on HBO ppv. Plus the pound is down against the dollar and people can't afford to fly over in the current financial environment. This fight does not need anything what so ever from America

Want a bet? When was Hatton's last fight in the UK? Vegas hotels pay huge amounts to stage these fights. Hatton vs Castillo? Who was American in that fight? Same goes for Margarito vs Cotto. I know where you're coming from, but that's reality when it comes to staging fights. it had to be in vegas. the only reason ricky fought castillo was because of his name. they needed to showcase ricky against a well known fighter in america because they were setting up the floyd-ricky fight. i agree with you and how the casinos pay $$$$$ to host events. they make tons of money on fight night and it has nothing to do with the gate. just depends on how much the casinos offer. if they can offer more money than selling out a stadium in england then it'll be in vegas. more than likely it'll be in vegas but england is also a possibility.

No it won't. And why should it? It's a Pinoy and a Brit. Nothing to do with America, and in the UK it'd sell the most tickets. This fight will happen. Ain't no "if it happens" about it. Want a bet?

don't be surprised if Freddie encourages it when Pac signs to fight Hatton. I'm sure he'll send over lots of http://images.google.com/url?q=http://lukehoney.typepad.com/the_greasy_spoon/images/2007/12/05/guinness.jpg&usg=AFQjCNEj139hNFvLe_AN2b3aNcH8f490Hg Great beer by the way

Cardiff? WTF? It should be Wembley. Cardiff is too out of the way for most UK folks and Wembley holds a much bigger crowd and could easily be filled. This fight could get a 100,000 crowd. Makes no sense to do it in Wales. maybe they want the welsh to see what TRUE p4p fighters like pac and ricky look like? j/k i sense a red k from _ricky_ coming...... lol

Ricky Hatton has been warned his boozy lifestyle will cost him if he fights Manny Pacquiao. The Hitman is being lined up to face the Pac Man after the Filipino destroyed Oscar De La Hoya to end his hopes of a £40million showdown with the Mancunian at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium in May. And Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach claims Hatton must stop drinking if he is going to have any chance of avoiding De La Hoya's fate. Roach's own promising career went off the rails and the American feels Hatton's antics will cut short his time in the ring. "Hatton-Pacquiao for me would be a great fight and I know Manny is itching to fight him," said Los Angelesbased Roach, who also trains Amir Khan. "Hatton seems a nice guy, but I can't agree with his drinking. How long is it before living in the fast lane has an effect on fighters? "I was 27-1 and thought I was a pretty good fighter when I broke my hand. Then it was easy to blame my hand on my career going the other way, but I now know it was because I was chasing girls and drinking." Pacquiao's adviser Joe Ramos claims the May showdown will be spectacular. "It would be an amazing fight at 140lbs," he said. "If not in the UK, then let's go to the Philippines." Carl Froch is also looking at a huge fight in 2009 and the newly-crowned WBC super-middleweight king is eyeing up the former undisputed middleweight champion Jermaine Taylor. But promoter Mick Hennessy warned: "He's Carl's mandatory challenger, but it already looks like he's heading for the exit signs." http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/more-sport/2008/12/09/pac-in-booze-or-pay-pri-115875-20957281/ Cardiff?
