    Even if Hatton loses he can still box and make money. Losing to PBF wouldnt be the end of the world for him. Every boxers who ever laces gloves loses, so why shouldnt Hatton want to face PBF for fear of losing. Hatton wants the glory.

      If that were true he would've stayed at 147 and fought all the stars in that division.

        Let alone the fact that he would probably get his ass handed to him.
        What manager? Hatton handles a lot of that stuff fairly independently.

          I guess we're assuming Floyd isn't selfish enough to keep his word and retire.

          He has been taking all the criticism very personally.

          He's heard all the jokes about his crying - I'm not totally sure he won't retire.

              Nah it's the other way around. If it happens it's because PBF knows he'll earn easy money. After Hatton's dismal performances? PBF is way up above Hatton's class everybody knows that.

                i honestly think hatton vs mayweather would be pretty much identical to baldomir vs mayweather

                hattons game plan would be to attack attack attack

                so was baldomirs,it didnt work,floyd would pot shot him all night and make it a boring fight,but white wash him

                  Nah, Baldomir is slow on his feet, he tried to box with Mayweather and he didn't throw enough punches. Hatton has good feet, he always stays close and he keeps on throwing punches to the body. Hatton - Mayweather would be a lot closer than the Baldomir fight.

                      You really want to know what a Hatton/Mayweather fight would look like?
                      Go watch a tape of Gatti/Mayweather...actually it would be worse,because Gatti is stronger than Hatton.

                      It would be a lousy fight,because after the first few rounds of getting peppered,Ricky would turn into HugMan for the rest of the fight.

                      But this is all conjecture...cause it ain't ever gonna happen.
                      I should amend that,it's not going to happen in the near future while both are at their peak.

                      It reminds me of all those yearswe waited for a Roy Jones/Darius Machwhatevervich fight...and it never happened.
