          The truth is that Hatton wanted to make easy money fighting Lazcano, and no major network was interested in buying the fight, that is why he is fighting on UK time.

          Hatton first tried to include this fight on his 3 fight HBO deal but they rejected it (and so did Showtime), so they said the contract would start after this fight. If HBO accepted the fight with lazcano, this fight would be at 2 am UK time no matter what BS Ricky feeds his fans.

          Versus, the only channel that is showing the fight in the US payed their whole budget for the fight and it isn't much money at all. They weren't going to pay any more to have the fight shown at US prime time, because nobody watches Versus anyway and only a few cable companies carry the channel.
