    Doesn't Make Sense For Pacquaio To Fight Hatton Right Now

    The Hatton fight will always be there, fight Floyd first, even if you lose Hatton is still there, give Hatton the 60-40 then and even give him England if he wants. But if you fight Hatton first and lose, the Mayweather fight wont happen.

    Freddie knows this and all of this negotiating is only to get a better percentage against Floyd. They never intended to fight Hatton first. Again this negotiating is only to get a better percentage with Floyd, who would want the bulk anyway, this helps their case now with Floyd because they will just tell Floyd that they can go back to Hatton, its all business and strategy.

      This only works IF Mayweather comes back, not something I would be betting $30,000,000 on personally.

        I disagree.


        A fight and win over Hatton (if he manages to get past Ricky) sets up a perfect storybook plot to a fight with Mayweather, who's last two fights just happened to be the same two fighters.

        If Manny beats Hatton convincingly, and more impressively than Mayweather did, it would be a no brainer.



        Besides, Floyd coming back within the next few months to fight the best fighter in the world, after an almost 2 year layoff, without a tune-up fight makes absolutely no sense.

          Floyd will take the Pacquaio fight in a heartbeat, I guarantee you they are negotiating as we speak.

              Thats why he wont fight Hatton first, he could lose. Yes if he won it would be perfect but its not written in stone he will. Fighting Floyd first win or lose its two guaranteed paydays, fight Hatton and lose its only one payday. Common sense.

                Nothing like guarantee'ing things you have no possible way of knowing.

                I guarantee ***** is f8cking his secretary right now, I can't prove it but you can disprove it either.

                It's still as worthless a guarantee as yours.

                  Pacquiao is too big right now, dont hold your breath on that THIRD JMM fight, it aint happening.

                    I'm not...just saying that Pac doesn't need to fight Mayweather!
