      Yeah, you are right, this is why Hatton has been waiting for Mayweather to enter his 30's.


      Seriously, look at the two fighters you mentioned and look at the whole situation, and not just their names.

      I mean even Tszyu was having problems before his injuries. Tszyu is one of my favorite fighters, but I even have to admit he might be overrated, at least based on his die hard fans.
      I think talent wise Tszyu had incredible potential, but that is different from what he ended up being, which was still great, but not what I thought he should have become.

        Who did Mayweather duck?

And Tarver Hopkins only did about 350,000. Does Baldomir have the popularity of Tarver or hopkins, I think not. All the Morales and pacman fights did about 330,000, does baldomir have the poplaurity of them, I think not. fact is Floyd is the 2nd current fighter who is a big draw. is there a big gap between him and Oscar, of course there is. But he has a gap between him and the other active fighters as well. Gatti- Mayweather(his 1st PPV) did 340,000. Mayweather-Judah did 400,000. mayweather-baldomir did about 350,000, the same amount as Tarver fighting Hopkins, the same amount as Mosley fighting Vargas. And about 20,000 more than Morales, Pacman, and Barrera fighting each other. So Amaru, he does only come 2nd to Oscar.
          And include the fact that whoever fights Oscar tends to get a boost in their ratings afterwards.

          Tito, Shane, and Hopkins all prime examples.

            mayweather wont even waste his time with a c-calss fight and i dont blame him hatton dont want it with floyd he just using that to make money like floyds advisers said if hatton want to fight sign the contract but he dont want to fight when he fought luis collazo he got ****ed up and that was at 147 he cant handle floyd and why didnt he give collazo a rematch if he was a real fighter he would fight collazo agin and then go and fight miguel cotto or someone like that every time someone whens a fight everyone wants to see them fight floyd its easy to call out a man who said hes retired why wasnt anyone calling him out the last 2 or three years

              True, we'll call it the "Oscar" effect.

                castillo vs hatton was a joke a disgrace to boxing clearly a set up castillo needed the money he probably got even more to take a 4th round ko they are trying to build hatton up so bad he got his ass whipped aginst luis collazo and never gave him a rematch and ran from the weight class and now hes talkin about floyd he needs to shut the hell up and go back to england and fight more of the sorry fighters that made up his 40 something wins and be happy with that how could anyone be impressed with that bull**** win

                  I hope Hatton can back his words up. Nothing is worse in fighting than talking **** about somebody and losing.

                      I wouldn't mind seeing Hatton/Mayweather, but lets see if this fight happens or if both camps are just talking at this point.
