    PBF has been sayin since b4 the Gatti fight that he would never go over there to fight Hatton cuz they don't give u a fair shake.

      We'll just have to see I guess.
      No your probably right, but i think Hatton is kinda done for reputation in the US and thats where is matters, i think people in the US see him as a club fighter and dont rate him as much as they used to,

      Now if mayweather is sitting at home eating cream cakes right now, hatton has a chance, if mayweather is still training incase he fights again (something i reckon he is doing, cos mayweather cant stay out of the gym) then i hope the fight happens,

      It makes me worried about wether i am missing something, because even years ago when people were saying hatton could beat mayweather, i always said the same thing, i couldnt see the fight going 9 rounds, of course back then people thought i was crazy, these days they are a little more receptive.

        Yes mayweather could fight DLH again, to be honest even tho he's my fav, hes gotta hang em up soon, only so long he can fight at his current level, which is light years ahead of anyone else, he is 30 after all, maybe two more fights, then retire, otherwise he will lose.

        Hatton could beat PBF i'm not saying he would but he's got the style to grind him down and wear him out.

          I'll say this again, for Hatton to win he has to mix it up, make mayweather suprised, mayweather is expecting hatton to come at him in a line and fire wide shots to the body and straight rights, if hatton tries to jab a little and backs off, mayweather might be surpised, hatton cant fight at mayweather's pace either, there is a reason floyd moves aroud the outside, his opponents lose engergy chasing him for many rounds, which leaves them more open to get hit, so hatton has to mix it up, Jabs, sideways movements, and then come forward in spurts, thats his only chance for me, and that chance depends on mayweather having a shocking night.

          Chasing mayweather doesnt work for me, he's been chased nearly his whole carrer and specialises in chopping bigger men than him down like trees, he loves fighting backwards at times.

            Hatton isnt fighting in the UK anymore.

              I hope Hatton and PBF do fight I think it would be a good fight.

                How many threads can be made about the same thing? Hatton was offered fights already and turned them down so how in the hell is Floyd scared. Seems like Hatton didn't want to get in the ring with Floyd since he turned him down. Floyd/Hatton should happen but it's going to take a very lucrative deal and/or Hatton to put on a dominate performance against Castillo to get Floyd interested in this fight.

                  If Floyd wants the big outdoor superfight to be marked on his legacy, in front of 90,000 fans like they used to be then Hatton is his only chance. You simply can't fill an outdoor stadium for a boxing event in the States any more. You could possibly fill Wembley if Hatton is fighting someone with a big name, someone like De La Hoya or Mayweather.

                    Mayweather has offered him three times,Hatton asked for 13 mil,after his performances he aint worth nothing like that
