Who would you favor over Hatton at 140?...Who?...

i think bradley could take hatton

Sure, but who would be favored over Hatton...there's guys who could beat him, but is there anyone seriously good enough to say they can be FAVORED over Hatton at 140?

No betting line would have Hatton as the underdog at 140...except maybe against Mayweather

[BetterCallSaul]

nope.. he was wobbled and the ref saved him....

Hatton was only slightly hurt. I have just watched the fight again, and Hatton was not anywhere near being knocked down. His legs went for a couple of seconds, thats all. And the ref was warning Lazcano about holding Hatton down, when you can see Hatton look down and realise his shoes were undone.

The break benefited Lascano more than Hatton.

[Chunk..]

Pacquiao called out Hatton, it wasn't the other way round.

The self ownage by people round here is getting out of hand.

What does it matter, the bottom line is Manny is a greedy little twat and not a man of his word. The whole boxing world should hammer him just for that.
Does he honestly think he's bigger than the game, I suppose that's why the Philippines is a third world country.

how many warnings prior to that... ?

How many times had either fighter pushed the others head to the floor?

That like me saying "It wasn't a touchdown because the lineman jumped offside"

and you replying "How many time where linemen called offside before the touchdown?"

"Errr, none, but thats because none had jumped offside before that, whats your point?"

OK guys, sorry about the Malignaggi decent effort thing. I didn't realy remember the fight so good couse it was pretty boring, my bad. But he did look **** against Lazcano. All he brings is the British TV audience and a one dimensional attack. I mean Pacman is the star, the NUMBER 1 PFP fighter in the world, he has EARNED the 60-40 split. Look at the guys resume. Hatton with his recent showings should be happy with that split. Floyd already made him big bucks.

You need to watch the Lazcano fight again aswell.

If I could beat a top 10 in my weight fighter 120-108 / 120-110 / 118-110 and be called ****, i'd be more than happy.

Lazcano had two spells of sucsess in the entire fight both lasted less than 30 seconds.

Floyd never made anyone big bucks, Oscar was his one great payday, he always needed the money man and Hatton is a money man.

Firstly, the simple fact is that whoever the 'star' may or may not be Hatton brings as much cash, if not more, to the table than Pacquiao. He is also the linear champ and Ring belt holder at 140. To me that rates 50-50 whatever sort of fr*gging resume the challenger may have... and I tend to agree with a couple of previous posters that Pac's resume isn't quite as impressive as you seem to think it is. Linear champ is a matter of fact. #1 PFP is a matter of opinion.

Secondly, a lot depends on the circumstances. You might have a point (although I don't agree with it, as I said) had that been the Pacquiao camp's position from the word go, but it seems everyone thought 50-50 had been agreed. If that was the case, you have to draw the line somewhere and it's not hard to see why Hatton might be a tad pissed.

Thirdly, it depends on what else is being lined up. We simply have no idea of who might be willing to get it on with who at the moment, with PBF being the really big unknown.
