(Maybe I missed it, but) Why does Hatton think he deserves a rematch with Floyd?

Sure, but the way I look at it, its hard to blame an underdog for taking a tough fight. This is still a fight sport, people can get hurt. This is why I dont hate on Oscar for doing the same thing(but I did hate on him for fighting Forbes).Comment

Forbes is an atrocious choice of opponent. As recently as a few months ago, Forbes was a sparring partner for Hatton. And not a "Shane-type" sparring partner.
I just can't respect Oscar for that one.Comment

it was a blowout, Mayweather made Hatton look inferior, Hatton did nothing but be a punching bag, so I don't think "he did enough to deserve a rematch" deserves to be an option.Comment

Presumably Hatton who is the linear and recognised champ at JWW, and who was unbeaten before Floyd, feels he should get the chance to try and avenge the SINGLE L on his record. I tend to agree with him. Its not like he was some prospect or journeyman, he's a proven elite, with the largest support in boxing, who's accomplished a lot himself.
You can look at the fight two ways, as a routine Mayweather win, or as an unusual Ricky hatton loss. I'm sure Ricky and lots of his fans see it the second way. The story isn't only about Mayweather, its about Ricky too. I'd like to see him get another go, he's achieved enough in boxing to be worthy of more respect than he gets.Comment

The fight was NOWHERE NEAR close. The Floyd/Oscar fight was at least a close match, and I don't really have a problem with a close fight or split decision resulting in a rematch. Hatton was a plodding punching bag that was not allowed to fight illegally, and Floyd showed exactly what happens to Hatton when Hatton is not allowed to hold and hit. So I ask, why the **** does Hatton think he deserves a rematch with Floyd?
you cant hate on Hatton for wanting a rematch everybody who ends up falling short will want one, the question is Why does Floyd think Hatton deserves a rematch and if its really for the money it shouldnt be allowed to happen.
in fact I really hope that if Floyd does go through with a rematch, the WBC should do whats best for the divison.Comment

He's a masochist,didnt you see the way he turned his back to Floyd like a f@ggot after being punched.Maybe he gets erections from severe beatingsThe fight was NOWHERE NEAR close.

It's his right if Mayweather is willing to sign the contract. It is also the media's right to denounce such a meaningless fight and it is also the right of the public to spend their money elsewhere instead of shelling out cash on a fight that means very little.
What I want to know is this: How many Hatton fans are willing to travel across the Atlantic to see that again?Comment
