    Just want everyone to know.......

    DO NOT...I mean seriously...DO NOT be surprised....









    That if Bradley fights and beats Alexander that Mayweather - Bradley WILL happen in May 2011 instead of Mayweather-Pacquiao.

    Bookmark this thread. Mark my words. It will absolutely happen.

    I like both guys(Bradley&Alexander) but we must show our support for Alexander to win if this fight goes off. The fans deserve to see Pacquiao-Mayweather and if Bradley wins it will be ANOTHER year of 400 threads a day on why Pacquiao and Mayweather won't fight each other.

    I'm warning you now!

    Floyd was seriously thinking of fighting Matt Hatton before the Shane fight, so don't be surprised if you see a fight like that materialize.

    Hatton has some moderate fan backing in the UK off his brothers name.

    Bradley has no fans apart from on message boards.

      He will have fans if he fights the weekend before the Superbowl and KO's or beats Alexander badly.

          No he wasn't! Campbell, Hatton and all those other ****** fights were all rumors. GBP did not call Hatton. The ONLY people who were actually considered by GBP (not Floyd, but GBP) were Paulie Malignaggi and Kermit Cintron. I'm guessing Floyd wasn't interested in Malignaggi so they turned to Cintron, but then HBO refused to give them the March 13th date because they didn't have a deal yet and March 13th was only 6 or 7 weeks away. That's when they turned to the Mosley-Berto winner for a May date, and Berto happened to pull out.

          If you look at all of Floyd's opposition, they may not have all been the best fighters, but they all had one thing in common. They were either world champions or hype jobs!

          Mosley: World champion, top WW
          Marquez: p4p #2, Pacquiao's rival
          Hatton: Very hyped, solid JWW
          De La Hoya: Biggest name in boxing, top JMW, key to superstardom
          Baldomir: The Ring WW champ
          Judah: Former Ring WW champ, blew it against Baldomir, also had a huge Hip Hop fanbase
          Mitchell: Former top JWW, Tszyu's rival

            I know scouts at Golden Boy and I don't need to lie, Hatton WAS a serious option, but Wembley stadium was unavailable because of maintenance issues and Floyd then changed his mind about the fight. He also asked for 60% of the UK PPV but was rebuffed.

                Yeah, I remember the Hatton talks. That was right around the time Floyd was scared to death of Mosley

                  Mosley was his only viable option, he had to fight Shane.

                  I would've loved to have seen the boxing worlds reaction to Matt Hatton-Mayweather though.
