    **** Mayweather-Hatton vs. Cotto is the fight that we must have!

    This fight if promoted just like Oscar vs. Floyd would certainly not do the 2.15 millions buys but it would do a million and it would be a cant miss great fight.

    Fight in New York, the could fill Yankee Stadium with the Brits and the PR's...I was damn close to rigside for this past Saturdays fight and Im still in awe of the Brtitish fan base.

    You could fight in Antartica and they would be there.

    Cotto has a similar following and if this fight was made it would be one for the ages on more then on level.

    This is the fight our sport needs, sure a Floyd fight against one of these two fighters has to happen but not now-we dont need Floyd running around avoiding Cotto and Hatton, we need a fight right now and this is it!

    Cotto vs. Hatton!

      Much like Pacquiao will not be big enough for 135, Hatton will no longer venture into the welter weight division. Cotto used to starve himself silly to make 140. So you can count out Cotto going down or Hatton going up.

        ey papa-i just got back from the ba***** last night and got your VM; i hope you didn't take TOO much of a hit on that castillo loss ... i've yet to see the hatton / castillo fight but i heard that hatton body shot was straight out of hell and i'm dying to see it.

        hatton REALLY seems to believe in himself and his chances against mayweather; i'd say let them fight.

        shoot, could you imagine him getting a nod over mayweather? i can't, but if it did then believe that cotto / hatton breaks PPV and gate records.

        yankee stadium, the new yankee stadium.

          It definitely would be a good fight that will generate a lot of buys, ticket sales especially at the Garden but Hatton needs to move up to 147lbs. Cotto will not go anything below 147. I'd pick Cotto to win by a guaranteed KO if this fight ever happens. My prediction is coming from a boxing fan not a Cotto fan.

            I have a feeling that the fight would be a just a little more exciting because there would be more toe to toe action. Cotto would not dance around the ring like Mayweather does.

              Hatton would have to fight Floyd at 147 so why not Cotto the fight is so much more explosive.

              Plus the fighters respective fan bases are what would make this an event for the ages, I cant even imagine how many Limey basatrds would cross the pond to see a fight in New York, you name the seating capacity and they would fill it not too mention the Puerto Ricans.



              Does anyone thin Floyd is going to sit and fight Cotto or Ricky (not knocking him for it, he must do what he needs to do to win the fight) but our sport needs a mega fight that actually lives up to the billing.

              Cotto v. Hatton is it!

                  Hatton would fight PBF at a catch weight, not at 147.

                    Bull**** Hatton will fight Floyd at whatever weight Floyd wants to fight at and thats it.

                    Ricky is going to have to bow down to Floyd if he wants this fight, he is not Oscar who is the only man that gets Floyd to make concessions.

                    If Ricky asks for a catch weight Floyd will tall him to **** himself, a catchweight happens only if Floyd wants it and I think Floyd likes 147 pounds.
