i know lots of people like to make fun of canelo but he was set to fight kirkland, then williams, and then ortiz. All three of them are about his size and can punch. Canelo lets oscar pick his opponents and i don't think canelo is looking for easy fights against little guys. I am pretty sure there won't be any hatton vs. Canelo fight. Why would hatton agree to fight a guy he must know he can't beat. If hatton comes back i think it will be much more for pride than money. Golden boy must know how bad they would look if they made this fight. I think they will try to get cotto next for canelo.
also i dont think people here know how contracts work...he did sign a contract so gbp will promote him and pick the fighters..im pretty sure thats how contracts work..you dont do what you want it has to be approved by the company that your working for??

Hatton, comeback pending, is almost certainly fighting Malignaggi. Paulie reportedly has a big name opponent lined up about which he has been sworn to secrecy.
As ridiculous as this idea might sound, you still can't put it past GBP at this point.
Man, If I was Canelo and I did wanted to fight the best out there and GBP was feeding me this type of sh1tty opposition, Id be pissed. They're making him look like a damn pu$$$y and people still support him. :lol1:
I will stop watching boxing
I might too. They better not do this, it will be the nail in the coffin. Hatton is in no shape to fight Canelo (Canelo is way to big). Oscar vs Hatton would be fair.
With GBP possibly seeing their Cash Cow "Mayweather" discontinuing the partnership, they will need to build up another ..... and Canelo already has a huge fan-base in Mexico, So he's their guy.
Canelo's huge Mexican fan-base + Hatton's huge British fan-base
= MEGAFIGHT + MEGACASH
Financially I don't think its a bad idea, though I don't give Hatton a chance in hell of beating Ginger :lol1:
I wouldn't think it is for Canelo, although it could work out that way I guess especially if things go awry for him at some point in the near future.
They have a bunch of guys from 140-154 that could use the exposure a Hatton fight could bring, plus they also have some older guys so this gives their senior circuit a very good option ($$$) even if they have to travel to see Hatton.
Yes Hatton is coming to avenge Matthew Hatton,they will call this fight..........."REVENGE".Hatton will win leading to a massive rematch with Floyd in The U.K ppv #'s will be shattered
Hahahaha "Revenge" go work for Oscar dude.
