        Because Spade boxing isn't as simple as that, because we have all these celebrities paying silly prices for front row seats, driving the rest of the prices up, having fights for the rich in vegas and if you watch from home you have to pay as much as a backrow seat, that produces money driven boxer's and ruining boxing. The UFC will be the same soon to, I prefer fights outside Vegas because they have better atmosphere and let more real fans in, instead of Paris ****ing Hilton.

          What?

          Floyd just probably wont fight in britain,

          This is the thing,

          10 million is not good money for getting mayweather to come out of retirement and into the UK.

          When he made 8 million for baldomir,

          The easiest way to do the fight is in vegas, as suggested already, with a 65/35 or 70/30 split to mayweather in which Hatton could still make a career high purse.

            Delivery Man, Mayweather wanted $20m to fight in Manchester he priced himself out. Hatton wanted $13m in Vegas, priced himself out, there both as bad as each other for not making the fight happen, how much ****ing money do these people need. It's all not a one way story, how the **** do u know what Mayweather offered Hatton, it could have anything in the contract. Hatton signed a 3 fight HBO contract with no Mayweather fight, because they wanted Hatton to take the U.S by storm and promote the mega fight at the end of it. I can discredit Mayweather all day, I can discredit Hatton all day but I just don't pick one side and go blindly by one mouthy lier like Mayweather says.

              Apparently ricky's deal with hobson is over, he is free,

              Now Ray Hatton and Warren just settled out of court and they will talk about future fights

              You know warren aint letting hatton go to america, but he may offer floyd more money to come over here. AKA the fight wont happen

              If warren gets involved, i think Paulie M may come to the UK as Hatton's next fight,

              Which is a very good fight, but its not mayweather.
              Hatton shouldnt get involved with Warren he has no need to at this stage, it'd be a backward move IMO a ****** move. Fighting Paulie M instead of Cotto or PBF would be bizarre.

                This is fabricated rubbish. I can't even begin to dismantle that because there is nothing there to dismantle.

                  Whatever you're on is an illegal substance. Expect a visit from the old bill shortly.

                    Im sick to death of arguing over boxing politics, if Mayweather doesn't accept a $10m fight with Hatton, his second highest purse of his career, he is flat out ducking the fight, $10m is far to much money. Im sick of fight fans going "NO NO NO thats not enough" who the **** is paying for these fights its certainly not the promoters, it's all of us. The more you say how much a fighter should be earning the more we all have to pay, this is why boxing is so flawed at the moment, im never ever arguing about this ****ing shyte ever again, im sick of it.
