Hobson Offers Mayweather $10 Mil to Fight Hatton in UK

[baya]

hatton really doesn't want this fight. he should be conceding more to get in the ring with the worlds best, hands down.

its as simple as that, yeah, hatton puts more asses in seats but boxing is sometimes about principal-and i think that it applies here.

hobson should have said guaranteed 15mil, state-side and upside of PPV's. come on, can we not think of a rematch clause here or anything?

Hattonn definitely does not deserve an equal purse. Come on people let's be honest here. If you were regarded as the best in the world, would you split your purse 50/50 with a fighter that is, regardless of the length of his resume, is still proving himself?????

No, Mayweather does not deserve an equal purse. Hatton has a better record with 43 wins compared to Mayweather's 38, and has more KOs with 31. Mayweather has fought older boxers than Hatton, such Baldomir and De La Hoya, and has built his record by avoiding prime fighters like Cotto.

Hatton is a more exciting fighter and a bigger draw. He should receive 60%, PBF 40%.

Why all of a sudden in UK,make the fight happen,Mayweather will not accept,just do it in America,they know he wont accept,then they'll make statements saying Mayweather ducked Hatton for 10 Mil,sometimes promotors piss me off

If you follow boxing, you should know that its all about putting asses in seats! If held in the MGM, Hatton would own that arena with 15k+ fans screaming Hatton's name.

Please save the insinuations, k. I do follow boxing, all of it. Not just fighters I like. I stated in another post that Hatton pulled 11,000 from England to his Castillo fight. But guess what, his name is still not bigger than Mayweather in the US. Period. No matter how much you like him and dislike Mayweather, his resume is still not as solid. Period. Hatton has not made near as much as Floyd is used to. Floyd, regardless of the "He made that money because of DLH" comeback, has made a lot of money, is the undisputed and has held titles in 6 divisions. Please, let's just get over the hatred enough to see the logic. Hatton needs to work his way up just like Floyd did. He fought on DLH's terms and now he is in the position to do the negotiating. It's not calculus.

10 mil is one hell of a generous offer, and Floyd won't get more than that from any of the other top fighters that could be potential match ups (IE, Mosley & Cotto), but once you've received 20 million, you're not going to get motivated for 10.

If you compare what each fighter does in thier own countries, its true. Hatton is indeed a bigger draw. Floyd cant keep people here from booing him, let alone fill up a stadium like Hatton does.
