    Pac already fought Oscar. Name the next biggest PPV star that Pac can fight.

    Please.

    Question: what are Hatton's PPV sales without Floyd?

    That was a truly ****** comment.

      And then he fought Tarver at Tarver's weight class, he didn't fight him at heavyweight, whereas Floyd fought Hatton at 147.
      Ok, Every fighter claims to be the best in the world no matter what class they campaign at. Roy fought Tarver at LightHeavyweight, they both were natural lightheavyweights. Floyd fought Hatton at welterweight during a time when they both were fighting there. Didn't Hatton just fight Colozzo or whatever his name is?

        No, after the Collazo fight, Hatton moved back down to 140 because he realised he couldn't cut it at 147. His previous fight before Mayweather was against Castillo, at 140.

          Ricky was the man at 140 who had better comp than Floyd (beat a real linear champion that floyd dodged like he had HIV-Tszyu- not old fat ass baldomir). I was answering a post where they said Floyd was a natural 140lber. This is another example of floyd ducking motherp***as. Props to Ricky for having the balls to go up and fight the man. Balls is something that Mayflower dropped a long time ago. Guess where they found um- In yo mouth!!!

            Actually Hatton had 2 fights at 140- Urango and Castillo and he was at 140 for over a year.

              Regardless of what folks that hate Floyd says, no one that walks around @ 157 and fights welterweight @ 148 on fight night is a natural 147 pounder. Where do you come up with notion that Floyd ducked tszyu? Castillo and Corrales were just as tough as Tszyu. Not to mention Floyd crushed the man that retired Tszyu.

                other than tszyu, hatton's reseme isn't that much more impressive than floyd's.

                besides... hatton got KTFO by floyd anyways.

                  I certainly don't hate Floyd, he's a great fighter; but if he's a natural 140 pounder, he should have fought Hatton at 140lb when he fought him in December 2007. And if he fights Pac, he should fight him at 140lb, not at 147 or catchweight.

                    ignored

                    Attaboy…uncle Bob! Ignore the egoistic pretty boy and let him know how it feels. Why give him mega bucks for running from you and running around the ring. Pit Manny against the winner of Cotto-Clotey, especially Miguel. Manny-Miguel fyt will bring more money to you, and nothing to junior. Floyd can feast on JMM and Valero or give Ricky a rematch. Hikhikhik…..Manny vs Floyd,..not immediately at least
