Mayweather: I was ready to give Hatton a rematch after Marquez and then Retire!

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

I dunno, the Jones fight was always a bit meaningless to me, but to Joe it was a pretty decent payday, I guess? **** knows.

Joe backtracked with the line that Roy earned it by supposedly looking good against Hanshaw and Tito.

Floyd would have said Hatton earned his rematch by beating Pac.


Same **** really. Guys at the back ends of their careers looking for the most lucrative fights. Pacquiao is potentially a more lucrative fight than a Hatton fight, though, so it's all good.

[Pullcounter]

Didn't Pacquaio fight two rematches recently against guys he ko'd: Erik Morales and Barrera instead of fighting more worthy opponents like Casamayor, Edwin Valero and Nate Campbell?

you mean the same casamayor that robbed santa cruz blind that david diaz beat?

you mean the edwin valero that has yet to even fight a gatekeeper?

you mean the campbell that jmm ducked at 135 lbs?

ive missed most of this thread, so i'll speak my peace and move on. if ricky would have beat manny, he would have been considered #1 p4p. Therefore, he wouldve earned himself a rematch against floyd. Duh!

um.. nope. if hatton beat pac, he wouldn't be p4p #1, he'd probably get behind hops and above mosley, but that's as far as it goes. jmm is p4p #1 by default.

for hatton to earn a rematch against floyd, he'd have to beat pac and jmm imho.

if hatton beat mosley, then I'd say that would also earn him a rematch against floyd.

And on top of that, its a big payday, and floyd wants to fight in the U.K. If someone said this already, im sorry!

this is the only reason why floyd would make this fight. its an easy payday. floyd KOs hatton faster the 2nd go round.

dude if hatton wouldve beaten pac, he wouldve been top p4p, considering the fact that mayweather is gonna destroy marquez. After floyd wins, hatton wouldve been p4p, which earns him a rematch

[realheavyhands]

thats str8 bull**** floyd,bull****..that wouldve been very cowardly..if he really said this..wheres the link

If floyds beat marquez even I will give him mad props..If he than beats pacqioua after marquez I wll even sa hes one of the best ever.. However, If he doesnt fight pacqioua after if he somehow beats marquez critics will stil say he was just a very good fighter.. He need both fights

hatton was already top 10 p4p according to ring mag. beating pac alone doesn't make hatton p4p #1. never!

if he beat pac and jmm, or beat mosley then I'd say he deserves a rematch.

but regardless of whether hatton deserves the rematch or not, WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYBODY WANNA SEE HATTON/PBF 2???? hatton just gets KTFO sooner in the rematch.

[-MAKAVELLI-]

its funny how some floyd fans are now justifying a would-be rematch with hatton had he won


he already KOd him...and in your words KOd hatton in his 'prime'


dont you bastards have a shred of 'pure' boxing fanaticism? unless you have a personal hate for ricky, why da **** would that fight interest you again? really...it would be the SAME ****...floyd would make him fight the SAME fight, ****, he would probably even make him fight a '47 again...and it would be the SAME result


so far, your so-called 'hitlist' consists of a lightweight in marquez and a dude he claims to have already ruined



he didnt come back to fuel YOUR arguments, he came back to cherrypick (which he's entitled to) but to support that is just pure man-love

How long have you been watching boxing? You know nothing about the talent level Floyd has been fighting. I have been following Mayweather's career since it started, not just the last three years and I know for an absolute fact that if you compare the records and the quality of competition that Mayweather has fought in his career to that of Pacquaio's, there is no question that Mayweather's is better and any objective person who did that would come to the same conclusion.

I've been watching boxing longer than the last 3 years. You could have looked at some of my past posts before jumping the gun. Since you jumped the gun, I'll agree @ 130, 135 no one is complaining about Floyd's opposition. From 140 up its dropped. If you're as objective as you say you are you shouldn't have a problem admitting that Floyd is low risk high reward since he started getting the big money. Also if you're as objective as you say you are you'll admit that floyd's contradictions are embarassing. If youre also as objective as you say you are you wont deny pac's body of work being greater, and that pac is more a fighter that's looking to challenge himself than floyd is. if you dont agree that's fine, refer to previous polls.

I can't believe Floyd fanboys still defending Floyd inspite wanting Floyd to rematch Hatton just in case Hatton beats Pac. Picking a rematch on Hatton over Mosley and Cotto? What a comeback!

[bojangles1987]

If he was really planning to fight Hatton again, which I don't think he was, then Floyd really is a cherry picking fraud.

His plan was to fight a lightweight, then fight a guy he decisively beat and always will instead of a much bigger fight against one of the welterweights he should be fighting? Whatever.

You twisted his words... he didn't say he would retire afterwords... read the article, plus if he beat the P4P #1 fighter out there he would have put himself in the position where he deserves another shot...

A Wembley fight against Hatton would make sense... the attraction Hatton gets in the UK is big... the fight would sell big time and make lots of money, it makes sense.

Like I said, there was nothing about retiring in the article, you twisted his words... for all you know he could of planned to fight one of those 2 afterwords... I mean he might have not but there is chance that he would of.

If your going to post articles about it at least be fair and not twist things he said.
