Yea, this is POINTLESS talking with you.

Luis Collazo was the WBA CHAMP when Hatton beat him.

I'm done...scram.

lol and mosley beat collazo very easy money would have done the same so what is your point hatton went to war with this guy and alot of people my slef included felt he lost that's it bro hatton was not a welterweight and was very short for the weightclass so for you to say weight had nothing to do with the lost does not make sense watch that fight again hatton is a bully who grab's bully's his opponent to the ropes and unleashes power shot's how was gonna do that giving up a hugh size advantage?and he went to war with a B class fighter and you want to give money credit for this ?if so please don't talk to me cause you don't know what you talking about

If Floyd beats Shane Mosley, he becomes the the #1 WW
in the Sport, will hold a title and if he does bigger PPV#'s,
I would say he improves his positions when/if the negotiations
with Pac begin again.

logic would say it would be easier for hatton to make 147, but that doesnt make it his best fighting weight. hatton was a light welterweight for a reason. he would weigh in at 140 and then come in on fight night at 150 -155. that was hattons main advantage. he would weigh more on fight night. but when he weighs inn at 147, his opponents come in heavier on fight night. look at the collazo fight, hatton was much smaller. mayweather had a 6 inch reach advantage over hatton.

hatton was also the champ in his division when he fought mayweather. so it could have taken place at 140. but mayweather knew that would be losing an advantage.

You are something else. Mayweather would have the reach advantage REGARDLESS of the weight class. You thinking before you post?

So, its fine for Hatton to have the weight advantage, but when someone else does, its not?

If Floyd outweighed Hatton on fight night, provide proof.

I don't wanna go into this **** about PPV #'s, but its unfair to compare the sales of different opponents... against common opponents Floyd has done better.

Anyway, 50/50 is fair because the fight is in such demand because of both fighters.

It's equally unfair to use the common opponent comparison due to how much has changed since FMJ and Pac fought their common opponents.

Pac's hugh surge in popularity after the DLH fight and his spectacular Hatton KO made him the hottest thing in boxing, especially after he confirmed he was moving up to such a competitive division.

He could have been a ***** and asked for more than 50-50 after the Cotto fight did better, but he didn't.

[AnimalisticMeth]

That is more than fair.

[Rome-By-Ko]

Man, you don't get what I'm saying.

Hatton fought TWO more times after he BEAT LUIS AT 147 FOR THE WBA TITLE.

THEN he went back to 140 to fight Urango and Castillo.

He stopped Castillo with a body shot, then called out Floyd.

Do you get me now?

I was saying that he fought two more times AFTER he beat Luis at 147 and BEFORE he fought Floyd at 147.

We clear, sorry for the confusion.

who else did he fight meyweather and what other ww?

i get you now. its just in your previous post when you said "Hatton fought TWICE more after that Luis fight at 147."

we know this anyways, but still those were at light welterweight. whats the point your trying to make?

[GRUSTLER]

Sure I can let's see:
Pacroid
Marquez controversial win
David Diaz stopped by Kendall Holt
Oscar loss to Floyd, depleted making weight
Hatton KO'd by Floyd
Cotto coming off wars with Judah,Mosley then KO'd by Cheato then another near loss to Clottey
Clottey a proven ball dropper

Floyd
Oscar for title at 154 no catch-wt (biggest PPV in boxing history)
Hatton unbeaten
Marquez chasing Pacroid get's shut down
Mosley coming off Cheato crushing

That pretty much sums it up. I think a lot of
people think Manny should get more or is the biggest
draw because they like Manny and hate Floyd but
from an over all perspective, Manny has yet to
top Floyd.

i don't even know why you talking bout hatton like he is elite what elite fighter did money fight and maybe that's the one you should focus on cause hatton is a joke

I'll give it another try, I guess.

I thought that Luis won the fight as well.

But the point I'm making is, the weight was NOT the issue. Graham said that they didn't have time to prepare for Luis.

I give Floyd credit AND Manny credit for beating Hatton. They deserve it.
