    The undercard will showcase some of the best of british prospects from the UK some from America that the fans can watch, spark interest in British boxing again and start boxing again for the UK..

    Hell sign a deal with BBC, ITV, get interest again, main fight might not be the best to watch but when you got 2 of the most popular boxers of the past 15 years then what does it matter to casual fans.

        I think you misinterpret what I said, I meant UK fans and not yanks can watch some British and American prospects fight, The whole thing wouldn't be considered a mega-fight, Both are shot if anything it's just to spark interest back in the UK.

          Hatton's coming back to fight Diaz, then he'll take on Mayweather, Cotto or Marquez.

          ODLH is finished for good.

              Both won't be destroyed, Hatton ain't dangerous at 147, De la hoya ain't dangerous at 147, before Pacman destroyed both there was a possibility of them fighting but never happened since they were victims in Pacmans plan.

              People here seem to think the fight will be somewhat relevant, No, it's just a good way to end both careers, with the loser going away with 10mill+ and the feel good of not going out with an embarrassing loss and having 90,000+ fans cheering for you!!!

              - You say Hatton should fight Khan which would be big but then again not alot of people in the UK appreciate Khan as much as they should (1st round KO adds to this) good for boxing fans.

              - You say DLH should of fought 1 more bum to end his career, or go to Wembley 1st time ever fight in front of 90,000 fans of both and have it out with a broken Hatton.

              It's an exhibition match, everyone wins, if you don't care don't pay attention, but I know I would travel down to London to see it.

              both retire afterwards.


              DLH wont fight at 147, thats if he ever fights again which i dont think he will. DLH might think its good money but he is not ****** enough to fight at 147 again. He lost to Pac because he had slipped as a fighter but a major reason was because he was dehydrated, why on earth would he fight Hatton at that weight and severely hinder his chances and higher the risk that he get hurt, possibly permanently.

              Its nice in theory but its not reality.

                    I don't think Boxing fans would be intrested in this fight. I'd rather see Hatton fight Bradley or Diaz if he returns.

                      U are so delusional.

                      Oscar wasnt KTFO like Hatton was. Its Hatton who is finished. He is a punchbag who got KO'd by a smaller man.

                      Oscar would destroy him even now.


                      This isnt a matchup worth talking about.
