    The fight would do well, but nowhere near what you expect. The casual Hatton fan barely knows who Pacquiao is, the only reason this fight is going to sell well is because of all the advertising about Pac being the best boxer in the world, you don't get that with Cotto. + If Hatton wins he will have most of the bargaining chips in his corner and he wants to fight at wembley and he said he's not going to 147 anymore unless it's for Mayweather. So the chances of this fight happening are small.

      Hell, even I'd purchase tickets for this fight. I live only 10 min away from the Yankee Stadium.

        I know what You mean, but if Cotto beats Clottey in dominating fashion, and Hatton beats pacquiao, and the Mayweather fight doesnt happend, I think Cotto vs hatton would be in place.

          That **** would be crazy, I think they would have to use the New Yankee stadium for a fight like this. I mean, I think like 20,000 brits will come here plus like 25K fans from over here. **** would be insane. The atmostphere, the rivalry that this will create do to Cottos win over Jennings and the explosive fight in the ring.

          I believe, a fight between this 2 would sell like 1 MIll PPVs here in th US and like 2+Mills in the UK, plus i think they can get like 45K fans in New York.

          All of this assuming Cotto beating Clottey and Hatton beating Pacquiao

          And the fight it self will be good till it last, because I think Cotto TKOs him like in 7 ROunds.

          Whats your toughts?

          And how the fight itself will play out?
          Hatton is the draw..he'd want it in Vegas.

          Cotto's broke ass doesn't have the pull to make the fight in his backyard.

              The atmosphere would be great. Cotto beats Hatton.

                Look ******.

                Hatton is the draw..he'd want it in VEGAS or Wembly.

                Cotto's KO'd ass has no pull whatsoever.

You'll have at least 15-20K Brits flying over to fill in those Yankee Stadium seats and the Bronx is not exactly short on Puerto Ricans. The fight would sell out the whole 50,000+ seats in the stadium, It would be a mega fight.
                  World wide recession.

                    Only because he'd outweigh Hatton by 15lbs.
