Hobson Offers Mayweather $10 Mil to Fight Hatton in UK

[kayjay]

And WTF is $10 million?

Mayweather just made $20 million for De La Hoya,

And they are offering him $10 to come out of retirement to come to hatton's backyard? What kind of money is that?

After he said he would never come to the Uk,

Im sorry, if this offer is true,

Ducking, team hatton trying to get out of the fight.

TS, you're being unreasonable here. Hatton is not De La Hoya, he just can't offer $20mil, no one other than Oscar can. If this report is true then it means Hatton's camp is doing their best. What do you expect of them, to say Ricky will fight Hatton in Vegas for $100,000?

$10mil would be Floyd's second best payday ever

I don't think Mayweather is scared to leave the USA.

If anything, and I'm going to get crucified for saying this, but I think Mayweather might avoid this fight because of Hatton's style. I think Mayweather is rightly the smart money to win this fight. Everyone knows it, even Hatton. The thing is, I think Mayweather is just as concerned about the way he wins as he is about winning. Think of Calzaghe fighting Bika. The smart money was on Calzaghe, but look how it turned out. I don't think Calzaghe winning was ever in doubt, but the fight was ugly. If Mayweather beat Hatton, which he most likely would, and the fight was ugly and Mayweather struggled more than usual, would it raise or lower his stock towards becoming, "The Greatest of All Time," as he wants to be?

If they want floyd mayweather to come out of retirement and come to england, when they know he is never gonna do that,

10 mil is joke offer,

He made 8 million fighting Baldomir,

U think he gonna over there and fight for 2 million more,

Hatton fans aint making sense,

One minute hatton is a bigger draw than floyd, next min 10 million is the best offer ever?....not making sense, unless they think a hatton fight is only worth 2million more than a fight with Baldomir?

Its a dum offer, one they know floyd aint gonna take in a million years.

Can we get a link to some proof of this offer?

Come on. It's an initial offer. That's why it's called negotiating. $10 mil is a pretty good starting point.

$10M is an offer meaning that is his minimum sum. My understanding is that Floyd made between $5 and $7M more from the De La Hoya fight than he was actually guaranteed so I would guess it works the same way this time.

Dude dont you find it funny that Hobson Never mentioned what WEIGHT the fight would be at?

Ellerbe said this week that floyd will do it at 147,

Dont be suprised if team hatton starts talking about 140 to get out of the fight, lets see what happens.

This offer could be all bull****.

Yeah that makes sense, cos a ricky hatton floyd mayweather fight is gonna generate as much revenue as the oscar de la hoya vs f. mayweather fight.

The fight should obviously be at 147 because it's the half-way mark. If Hatton's camp started arguing for 147, that would be pretty ******. Hasn't happened though, so I'm not going to worry about it.
