      Depends on the definition of "Big paying Mega fight". It's by far his biggest paying option, no-one disputes that, but my point is simply that Hatton doesn't really need it, although he wants it, and you now seem to agree with that.

      I would classify Hatton-Marquez as a big paying megafight, although it wouldn't be nearly as big paying, or nearly as mega, as Hatton-Pac would be. Everything's relative.

      No, that was out of date based on when Arum said it was back on, after his conversation with one of Manny's advisers, but then Manny said no by text message.

        That's how I see it, I'm afraid .. the win against DLH has gone to his head, IMO.

          Yea, I dont see it with Marquez to be honest, average bloke in UK doesnt know who he is, cant see why that fight would make more money or do more sales than some of his other big fights, at least paulie ran his mouth a little and riled up the hatton fans, cant see marquez doing that.

          Plus marquez looks to have reached the limit to me at 135, his win over casamayor was down to casamayor lunging in with the left hand and getting caught with combo, bad tactics on his part, i dont think Marquez's performance in that fight was great, just that casamayor pressed when he didnt need to and that he didnt have the reflexes he used to.

Hatton brings way more fans and generates way more tv revenue and box office hits.....infact it should be hatton asking for more ffs!!!!!
            lol you're dreaming.

              Hatton wants a 50-50 and said he will give Pac "some" of the UK PPV buys. Hatton's a ******! Therefore is trying to say that he should make more money than Pac. Please fool, Pac is the P4P best right now, he's the draw, not Hatton!!

                Yes this is true. But you can't blame him - he is on top of the world right now.

                  Goodluck to Hatton fighting the other 140 pounders in a sold out Wembley stadium..
                  Yaaaay.
                  I'm sure Hatton and the brits will be happy fighting Koltenik in a sold out Wembley stadium.
                  While Pac will look like a coward fighting Marquez,Mosley,Cotto or marg instead.
                  Yaaaaaaay!

                    Nobody knows who Pacman is.

                    Rickys fans support ricky, not boxing, they're football fans who have jumped on his bandwagon.

                    Nobody knew who PBF was either untill Hatton told them.

                    I asked 40 people in my office if they knew who the following was

                    Manny pacquiao: 1 person, the guy who i talk boxing too

                    Ricky Hatton: The cleaner and 1 older woman didn't know out of about 40.
