      i agree with Hatton..ive always said that. Floyd hasnt had great PPV buys up until the DLH and Hatton fight...He's got to be delusional to think he sold those tickets..LOL phuktard mayweather...id like to see his numbers for his previous ppv's..

        He's absolutely correct

        Floyd was mis-managed and marketed himself completely wrong in the early part of his career, and he has suffered since. He has since oscar and ricky become a cross-over superstar, but he should have been one waaay before that

        The annoying thing is like someone else mentioned is he is completely diluded with his self-proclaiming being the undisputed "cash cow" of boxing, ricky, oscar, calzaghe, pac can sell tickets on their own he should be on that level but he is not, its a shame cos his talent deserves it.

        I think the US boxing fans are partly to blame they are not supportive enough, if marquez vs mayweather was in the UK it would have sold out months ago

          ricky's right.

          you don't ****en say **** like "black people need to stick together" in interviews, blatantly referring to the sellers that are cotto and paq and their followers unless you're fittin' on trying to sell some tickets.

          ricky is nor was ever the fighter that floyd is but floyd is nor was the ticket seller that ricky is.

          floyd's an awesome B side.

                He has a point, but it's only beacause he knows Mayweather has also made a valid comment.

                  Hatton is right but too bad for him... he gave Floyd the biggest poayday of his career and Floyd gave him in return the worst beating of his career.. LOL.

                  Floyd is nothing though... If Floyd fight pac, then Pac would give him another big payday of his... floys is nothing hut ****... damn...

                    Floyd Jr. was just showing some concern about the wellbeing of a guy he made a lot of money with, that's all.

                    LOL at Ricky putting himself on De La Hoya's level. PBF was the US draw in the Mayweather-Hatton fight, with Ricky holding down the UK side. DLH was the draw in his fight with Mayweather, with Floyd's gilded P4P cache making him the dance partner DLH could break records with.

                      $25 mil for fighting DLH, $20 mil for fighting Hatton and $15 mil guaranteed not including gate and PPV sales against JMM. That's one hell of a "B" side...Now which one PAC or Cotto is guaranteed $15 mil in their next fight? Detractors can say what they want but you can't deny the man is T.A.G. (talented and gifted). Vegas had already made him a 2 to 1 favorite against PAC and he hasnt fought in almost 2 years. If there was a line on FMJ vs Cotto the odds would be more than that.
