You are right this may be hattons biggets fight but when you have over 10,000 people that are willing to cross the ocean to see him fight in another country, that alone would have to make him the bigger draw. Do you think that half that number would go to England if Floyd fought Hatton there. The answer is no. The only people that would travel to see Floyd in England are the people in his Entourage. I beleive Hatton brought 12,000 to see him fight Castillo and the only reeason the numbers weren't bigger for the attendance of this fight from Hattons side is because they were only allowed so much. That is not counting all the brits that will be in Vegas not in attendance watching. Say what you want and this is not hate, this is just a fact that Floyd fanss will not like. Floyd may be the bigger name in ther U.S. but he is not the bigger draw bottom line.
    Actually he sold out the arena and the attendance on the night was 16035...Whether people left because the fight was a one-sided beat down is irrelevant

      To the contrary, it is rather sane. I strongly assure you that nobody in my part of town knows who Hatton is at all though many will still be ordering the ppv.

        I will bet you anything the average ticket price in the MGM, which holds what, about 10,000? Surpasses the Live Gate cash in Manchestor.

        What's the average ticket price in a 25,000 person stadium in for a fight in Manchestor? I actually don't know, but I would be shocked if it was even half of what it sells for in Las Vegas.
        In fights of this magnitude PPV numbers DWARF live gate numbers PERIOD.

          They're both the draw...Hatton isnt the draw, Bringing fans over into the states doesnt make him the draw, Calzaghe just had 50,000+ fan in cardiff..I dont think he would say his the draw if his fight with B-hop is finalised..He knows he need B-hop...Just like Hatton knows he need Mayweather.

            (4TH ppv)

            Floyd PPV TOTAL Money after 4 PPV= 167 million (WONT BE TOP)
            Out of In any fighter in history 1st four PPV Floyd is the best....
            Baldomir : $16.3 million
            Judah: 15.7 million
            Gatti: 15. 3 Million
            De La hoya: $120.0 million

            Oscar De La Hoya First 4 PPV Total Money
            Totol Money: 57.4 Million
            1. Rafael Ruelas (5/95) 330,000 buys = $9.9 million
            2. Genaro Hernandez (9/95) 220,000 buys = $6.6 million
            3. Miguel Angel Gonzalez (1/97) 345,000 buys = $12.1 million
            4. Pernell Whitaker (4/97) 720,000 buys = $28.8 million

            And if you take away the fourth PPV fight for both OSCAR AND FLOYD ....

            Floyd still Wins...

              Mayweather is obviously the draw in the US, but every seat in the house is gonna be for Hatton, and it has little to do with the fact that Mayweather is gonna be in the other corner.

                  Yes it does and you know it, if they give anyone the option of watching(Tickets) who Hatton gets in the ring with Castillo(In may) or mayweather(In december) i know 9999 out of 10,000 people would pick up there ticket for the Mayweather one including Castillo's wife.

                    Frankly I think its Hatton. He has his whole country behind him and maybe even more people in his country know who he is than Americans who know who Floyd is.
