Hobson Offers Mayweather $10 Mil to Fight Hatton in UK

[Mozza]

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.

You've misunderstood me. What I mean is that Floyd will walk away with more than $10M but that is the minimum guaranteed amount.

Wait, so you think $10 mil is a low ball offer, even though it's the same guarantee he had for DLH, but you also recognize this fight is going to generate less money?

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.

Wait and see dude, there is talk of 140, M'baye, and all sorts, personally i hope the fight happens in Vegas at 147 in hattons next fight,

But in my heart i dont think team hatton wants this fight next,

All they had to do was sign the contract, fight in america, ray hatton said ricky will fight him anywhere.

Not start talking **** about fights at wembley stadium they know floyd is gonna say no to.

It time wasting, not proper negotiation.

To you and red menace,

The Mayweather De la Hoya extra money came from PPV sales. 2 million PPV Sales.

U think Hatton vs Mayweather does 2 million on HBO?

cos i can tell you right now, i cant see that happening

So all this talk of 10 mil + 5 million more etc, is crap talk.

Hypothetically, if Mayweather were to accept $10M I would confidently predict that he walks away with $12-15M.

Hypothetically if hatton signs the contract instead of making ****ty offers he knows floyd will say no to, the fight can happen.

True?

Well Mayweather isn't going to get the sort of Money he did against DLH, simple as that. He'll make about half that. Hatton - Mayweather won't be as big as DLH Mayweather. No way. Floyd would be ****** to fight in the UK. He's seen what happened to Tszyu and knows it will be pretty much the same deal, why the **** would he want to fight at 2am in the morning?

No not true. $10M cannot possibly be contrued as a "****ty offer" by any rational person, regardless of what spin you put on it. Furthermore, acting as if it is preposterous for the fight to be staged outwith the US is an argument that really lacks any credibility, especially when you are saying the offer is "****ty". In my opinion, the fight makes more money in the UK so why not hold it there if money is a concern?

Floyd's team have written up a contract and mailed it to Hatton's team? What are the details?
Or were you speaking crap?
