What happend to Ricky wanting to fight the best, I know Pac is considered P4P but there's more than just 1 fighter around 140 Hatton could fight, why only call out Pacman. Is Hatton suffering from JMM pacman obsession syndrome?
    I think it is because Pac Man is the biggest draw, And brings more money to the table. Also JMM just arrived at 135.

      I agree Manny is the bigger draw but Hatton talks about wanting to go down as one of the best so why doesnt he fight Juan or Campbell? If you want to be the best you kinda have to fight the best at or around your weight and not guys that are natually smaller great fighters moving up beyond their natural size. That's pretty cowardly *cough DLH*

        Hatton and Pacquiao is already a done deal for next year.. Oscar gave Pacquiao the guarantee to fight Hatton next win or lose..

        After the fight with Marquez until now, only De la Hoya and Hatton's name are being brought up by Pacquiao's mouth.. Trust me, because it will happen.

            Hatton will have a tough fight with malignaggi (i expect it to be a split decision).

            Beyond that if he fights oscar or pacquiao i dont see him winning.

            He's fading...he punches are wide and looping...someone like JMM or oscar de la hoya exposes this flaw all the way to a win.

              kinda funny how Mayweather Jr. was going to fight DLH and probably Hatton following the DLH rematch

              yet he retires and Pacquiao steps into his spot to probably do the same.

              *why couldn't Floyd just have fought Pacquiao, o well too late now

                I believe Hatton would benefit with a pacman fight more due to his pfp ratings + money earned, he wants to be known as an ATG. (although fighting marquez and winning would prob help him to).

                  Even if Hatton gets past Malignaggi and beats Pacquiao I still don't think you can qualify him as P4P #1. Same with if DLH beats Pacquiao. Does it put both there names in the top 10 rankings, sure, but probably the latter half of it.

                    I 100% agree, I think thats why Hatton is trying to get big fights after that to. Mainly a grudge match against Mayweather, but people would use his retirement as an excuse if he somehow beat him.
