      at this stage in both boxers careers its always gonna be about the $$$$$ and they are possibly the biggest draws for each other at the moment and would be a realistically good fight, unlike Pac/Cotto for instance or even Hatton/Cotto as Cotto would eat both fighters, especially as he would not come down from 147 to fight. We all know Hatton is not at his best @ 147 and we can guess that 147 may be a step too far for the Pacman.
      That leaves each other really, while i agree that there is unfinished business with Marquez, that doesnt bring as much money or media as a fight with Hatton. Its a shame that Hatton has all but promised that idiotic Paulie Malignaggi a fight in November or this could have been the fight of the fall.

        i don't understand why they don't just pay that little f4ggot off!

        give him $500k and a undercard fight to show him off and be done with it.

        ricky and manny can make $15 million a piece. hell have both manny and ricky give paulie $500k a piece so he can pay for his haircuts and facials......

        if ricky losses the paulie fight the manny fight is dead.

          all this ^^^^ i agree with entirely, the Hatton/Malignaggi fight will be a horrible spectacle and although i cant see Hatton losing, IF he does then yes the Pacman fight will be dead.

          Do we know any more of Manny vs Nate being touted for November? it would be good if that fight could be a co main feature on the same bill as Hatton vs Mailignaggi, it would ****e the atmosphere up a bit imo.

            campbell-guzman , katsidis-diaz and marquez-casamayor are all already signed.

            ricky is scheduled to fight in november same as manny's plans. if golden boy and top rank weren't feuding again this fight would've already been made. ricky is on the downside of his career. i don't want him to wait another year before they fight.

              Campbell - Guzman .... dayummm forgot that one ... i think Nate is gonna get his ass handed to him there!!.

              I dont think Hatton will wait another year either myself, if he cant get Manny for his next fight he will probably try for Oscar ( an unwise move IMO as Oscar is just too big) but it could all be academic if Paulie beats Hatton by some major act of god or terrorism then i reckon Hatton will retire IMO

                  hatton should beat paulie but sometimes you never know......

                  paulie has a funny style and he does have some speed.

                    I want pac to fight hatton. Im tired of seeing JMM climb off the canvas and then make excuses.

                      what for? it was close but we all saw what pac has evolved during the diaz fight. if he drops marquez for good what's the point. ateast ricky hatton is a bigger name better opponent.
