Juan Manuel Marquez Wants a Ricky Hatton Showdown

[Chase8400]

I don't understand why JMM is calling out Hatton, because he can get almost as much money by fighting Khan. Hell, I think Morales is more likely to fight again than Hatton is. I know that JMM and Morales have said they wanted to fight each other. I'd rather see that fight over a Hatton-JMM fight, even though I don't really want to see either.

Hahahaha! Not anywhere even in the same ballpark.

I thought you were kinda knowledgeable before that.

Kahn couldn't sell out a club in the UK fighting Pacquiao much less bring fans across the pond to see him fight in Vegas or New York.

a shot casa as well as baby bull gave JMM a lot of problems at lightweight.....both were slightly ahead of JMM on the scorecards when the KO came.....

i believe Hatton would KO JMM at Jr. WW......

JMM by KO. All my points on it. Two judges had the Casamayor fight even for a majority draw at the time of the KO. One judge had the fight for Diaz, another for Marquez, and the third had it a draw. How was Marquez slightly behind when the KO's came?

I think JMM will beat Hatton easy because of Hatton's style and Hatton is pretty much done guys. I like Hatton a lot but Id rather see JMM try and mix it up with some of the best junior welterweights out there. I mean he did beat the top lightweights during his short stinct at lightweight with the exception of nate campbell who is looking kinda old. How bout JMM-Maidana in a latino showdown or even against Urango or Alexander, each belt holders and would give JMM better HOF status.

I know Khan doesn't bring the money that Hatton does, but it's still a pretty good payday regardless. Why do you think Barrera went after him?

Barrera was just happy to be a stepping stone at that point. He knew it was one of the last chances he had to fight an elite fighter that brings some name value to the table. That fight didn't pay anything and nobody really showed up for it anyways.

Very good fight. Marquez should come in at 138, and on fight night weigh no more than 142.

Hatton should pretend the fight is at 140... then show up at 142.

Marquez can be punked like that.

So you're pretty much an advocate of fighters acting like scum bags. Nice to see.

I wouldn't mind seeing that. It's about time JMM starts getting a payday.

what do you think his fight against floyd was? minimum wage? he made almost a mill just cause floyd came in over wieight

[HattonFaithful]

tough fight for both guys if you ask me...jmm looks to struggle a bit with the added weight...and hatton's chin isnt what it used to be...but i see hatton winning if his chin can hold up but jmm would give him one hell of a rough time

Ya Hatton has to lose about 40 pounds to fight back....
