De La Hoya's Announcement is Coming Soon

[sterling]

oscar fighting cotto what would be the point? cotto would jus beat him what we need is cotto vs mayweather

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

if hes smart he'll pick Hatton(easier fight) and set the fight up in Manchester
that **** would break all types of sale records overseas

How do y'all feel about DLH-Hatton after watching four months of lovefest-ing between Oscar and Ricky??

Oscar's best performances are when he is angry and seeking revenge (Vargas, Mayorga, Mayweather). When Oscar is friendly towards his opponent (Hopkins, Sturm) he has looked like ****.

[Avenue]

Yeah. But few Americans would buy it. Schaefer isn't bought into Hatton as an opponent.

ahem' .. notice i said overseas,
true tho the way hatton lost killed any chance of the US wanting to see more of him

Yes. I know. But I said Americans. And the US revenues for a fight exceed UK revenues.


For example, "Undefeated":

850K US buys * $55/each = $47 million

1.2MM UK buys * $30/each = $36 million.

And there's NO WAY that they will match those 1.2 mil buys. Alot of those buys were bandwagonners/non-fans who wanted to see Floyd die.

Avenue,

You are absolutely right. Floyd did say that this would be Hatton's last big payday.

Hatton can't sell a US PPV bout. He was exposed. Americans have higher standards.

at £30 each.. which when converted to USD equals 62 Million... dont forget that little fact...

Correct me if am wrong but wasn't this fight, Hatton's only big payday?

[Welter_Skelter]

OH wait I see you already converted it.... Dont matter.. Hatton made the fight..

[-Antonio-]

It must be killing Oscar that he cant fight Hatton. All Hatton had to do was make it close, and this fight would be signed already.
