    $10 Mil wouldn't be a very bad offer if the fight was to be in the US. For it to be in the UK, Floyd should make 13-15 Mil and make sure their are non biased judges and ref.

    and to Chipp3r Floyd doesn't need Hatton, Hatton needs Floyd.

      Why do you think his last 3 fights have been in the United States in first place?

      Ricky Hatton himself has stated this so many times I have lost count.

      Now all of a sudden he's saying its gotta take place in the UK? This dude a ****ing joke and is flat out ducking.
      That's bull****. The point of Hatton going to America was to raise his stock so that he can make more money. Now he has done that and anyone who calls a $10M offer ducking needs to pull their head out their arse.

        now, hatton is not fighting mayweather. hatton is using floyds name to make him somebody. just like floyd said. who know hatton outside of the uk. no damn body. wake up.
        his post is so bad it's going in my signature for everyone to laugh at for all eternity. I've seriously never read anything as bad as this. The only thing even remotely close is the time he said Wladimir Klitschko had accomplished more than Roy Jones Jr.!!! WTF!!!!!

          Exactly. The offer from Hatton's camp is made, Floyd's 2nd highest purse bid... and apparently HE is the ducker?

          You 'Hatton haters' seriously need a ****ing wakeup call.

            Hobson should offer that... take it or leave it... then we'll see who's ducking who...
            What is the point of hatton fighting in america?

            He goes over there and fight Urango and Collzao, hardly big names,

            He was excellent against Castillo

            But here is the million dollar question, he said he wanted to fight mayweather,

            Mayweather said he would fight him next fight,

            Ray Hatton said ricky agreed and wanted to fight.

            Mayweather said he would NEVER fight in the UK,

            So if hatton wants the fight

            Why are Team Hatton offering mayweather a fight in the Uk when they KNOW he will say no.

            $10 Million to get floyd to come out of retirement and into the UK is silly money

            He made $8 Million for Baldomir,

            Are you saying Hatton fight is only worth 2 million more than baldy?

            Lol, its just a ****** offer,

            The fight can only happen in the US, fact, so why ask for something you know will never happen?

              Who would Draw more on US PPV? Hatton or Mayweather?. Mayweather,

              Otherwise why would hatton join HBO is if he the bigger draw where it matter, he hasnt NEVER been on US PPV cos HBO probably dont think he could do good numbers yet. Understand?

              So stop being silly and trying to Justify Hatton getting 60% and Mayweather 40% you just making yourself look even more ******, which is no mean feat.
              what ever the offer the major slice has to go to Floyd, he does have the attraction of PPV and he is a 5 time world champion......I'm just sick of all this money talk, get the fight on!!.........boxrec.com have the fight already down for the 10 December 07 in vegas!!

                When did i ever say that it should be a 60/40 split in favor of Hatton? For Floyd and his nuthugging worshipers to say that 10m+ is a bull**** offer, is rediculous! Remember, it was Floyd who is planning on coming out of retirement to face Hatton. Hatton embarrased, and bruised Floyd's ego in Floyd's home town, so now Floyd wants to come out of his 8 week retirement to so called "shut Hatton mouth, and beat his ass back to England". If thats so, Floyd should take the 10m+ and shut Hattons mouth regardless of where the fight takes place.

                  HE MADE 10 MILLION W/ BALDOMIR

                    Because you never really wanted it.

                      And technical_skill - I congratulated you on an excellent thread the other day, but you're being stubborn here. It's an offer, and its more concrete than anything I've heard from Mayweather's trashtalking camp.

                      I'm sure PBF could get more than $10mil for a UK fight. It would be huge over here, I'm not sure what Juy is smoking but Hatton is pretty much a household name, and more importantly for this, he will get 60,000+ to attend at wembley or equivalent. Could they get that in the US?
                      Why does it matter that 60,000+ attend? That's not going to generate more revenue. All it's going to do is generate a better atmosphere.
