    Flights from the UK to New York are cheaper then flights to Vegas.

    Hotels are cheaper in New York then they are in Vegas.

    What the ****!!!

    Mate, its more expensive to go to New York because of the timing of the fight. Right around Christmas - Christmas shopping in New York etc. Hotels are also more expensive during this time period. Vegas will work out cheaper at this time of the year.

    I dont doubt that Hatton probably is also making more money fighting in Vegas but he did lose a fair bit fighting at home last time againt Lazcano.

      Well, i've just checked flights on ****** and British Airways around the time of the fight and flights to Vegas costs more money then flights to New York.

      Check for yourself.

        Its not just flights though is it? Accomodation, restuarants, taxis etc. Vegas works out cheaper at that time of year. Ive been to both places a few times myself.

          About the same price for Vegas and New York. Not sure about the rest.

          Either way you wash it, Hatton's thinking about his wallet and not his fans. Hatton should quit all that ''For the fans'' bull****.

              Trust me, Ive been to New York at Christmas time. Its bloody expensive, especially if you take your bird. Vegas aint too bad. There are far more hotels which are really cheap and as long as you can steer clear of the slot machines for more than 5 minutes, you'll be alright.

              I dont think he thought about his wallet last time against Lazcano. I mean he gets bashed in the head for a living, course hes gonna think about his finances a bit. But I genuinely believe Hatton does appreciate his fans. As he wouldnt be where he is today without them.
