Today it has been reported that Mayweather wants to fight Hatton next!! Its is believed that each fighter will get payed around $15m each..
FLOYD MAYWEATHER vows to ‘kick Ricky Hatton’s butt’ after agreeing to a £15million superfight.
Mayweather is angry at taunts from The Hitman.
The American’s manager Leonard Ellerbe said: “The deal can be done this week. Floyd’s going to show all his fans in Britain just what a phoney Hatton is.”
Mayweather, 30, announced his retirement after his win over Oscar De La Hoya last month but has been incensed by Hatton’s verbals.
Hatton, winner of all his 43 fights, claimed his fourth-round knockout of Mexico’s Jose Luis Castillo contained more action than Mayweather’s whole 38-fight unbeaten career.
Now ‘Pretty Boy’ Mayweather — regarded as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world — wants to ram Hatton’s jibes down his throat.
Ellerbe said: “He got Floyd’s attention. Now we’re calling his bluff.
"Hatton’s very disrespectful. He’s trying to promote himself off Floyd’s name.
“Floyd has never taken any fight personally. But he’s taking this personally. Floyd is going to kick his butt.
"All he has to do is make a deal and he’ll have his chance to back up all that talk.
“When we make the deal we’ll show the world why he’s the most over-rated fighter of this decade.”
Ellerbe poured scorn on Hatton’s victory over veteran Castillo, 33, who twice took Mayweather the full 12 rounds before losing world title fights at lightweight.
