    yea but am talking about why wouldn't pacquio take the 3rd fight with marquez right away just like he did with morales, and in my eyes i saw marquez win by 1 point in the 2nd fight, it was a very controversial decision, EVEN Bert Sugar thought that marquez won the fight!!!
    before they even fought the 2nd fight they had already scheduled him moving up to 135 and getting diaz's title.

    like i said , the main goal is to get hatton at 140 for his belt.

    a hatton fight would earn him 3-4 times more than a marquez fight. can't blame him for that.

    as long as juan ma wins his next fight they'll see each other by next year. even if he doesn't they'll see each other again eventually. juan ma didn't jump to 135 for nothing. it's anticipation of the rubber match. if juan ma really thought they wouldn't fight a rubber match he would've just stayed at 130.

      Hatton no doubt, it would be better for both his legacy and bank account.

        As much as I think the JMM situation has been settled as well, I do think a 3rd fight with Marquez would be better than with Hatton. Hatton fight would only be about the benjamins. Hatton is boring, beating him means nothing because Floyd already did(with Hatton out of his weight tho)and it's kind of meaningless. Although it would prove Manny is a beast to beat another guy going up in weight that is no slouch at 140lbs. But still, I think Hatton-Manny won't be great if Hatton does his hit and hold bull**** for the full 12 rds. If Manny takes on JMM again and can finally put his ass down for good, it'll end the JMM talk once and for all, for the few that still believe JMM can finally beat Manny officially.
        I dont agree hatton is a boring fighter, i find that quite laughable really. maybe to hit and hold works against a larger stronger opponent, isn't that called tactics? i think with hatton/pacquiao you would see a real explosive exciting fight. you dont inspire the kind of following hatton has by being a boring fighter.
