I think Castillo's a superior fighter to Margarito but i can see what you mean, what Margarito lacks in ability he makes up for in size and strength.Originally posted by SAN D13GO VILLANI think PBF is full of ****!!! He is the best P4P fighter but I dont hink he's much of a Ppv draw!!! the only reason his 1st and only ppv did so good is because of arturo gatti, and I also think he's trying to avoid margarito, margarito is another version of castillo theirs style are pretty similar, margarito is a little bigger and stronger to.Comment

I dunno from that chat... Mayweather and his trash talk is a little bit like the boy who cried wolf. - What I mean is, I don't believe half the **** he says.
I saw Hatton and Billy Graham on tv and they both said that they really really want the Mayweather fight next... And they know how to beat Mayweather - (with educated pressure).
And I heard Hatton on the radio a few weeks back and he was saying that he really really wants the Mayweather fight. I actually heard this come from their mouths not some dodgey boxing website on the internet making up stuff.
I think what's more likely is that Floyds says to Sports Network, "Yeah I'll fight Hatton for a 60/40 split", Sports Networks obviously say "**** OFF!"... And then Floyd jumps around telling everyone that Hatton's ducking him?
I mean... There's trash talk, but the part where Floyd says - "These guys at 140 just don't want to fight me man! He came to me personally and told me he never wanted to make the fight!"
When I was a kid at school, I used to have a friend who talked so much ****... And he'd say stuff like, "Oh yeah! It's true, and they all said that I was the best! And they said I was amzing and that's how I won! And the manager of Manchester UTD came up to me and said would I like to play for his team! But I said no!!!" - I'm sure you all had your own kid at school who talked loads of bull**** like this.
Bit like last time I read a Floyd Mayweather interview he was saying, "Oh yes, oh I never watched the Tszyu vs Hatton fight, really! I was having some fun in my swimming pool instead, Honest it's true... Coz' I'm the cool fly boy don't you know!" - Yeah OK Floyd.
The whole interview come across to me like that.
Did any of you guys find that?Last edited by Martin (Top Knowledge); 08-24-2005, 11:23 AM.Comment

Thats exactly what i think, all he said was Hatton camp turned down his offer. His offer was probably 60-40 at MSG in Decemeber 2005, you know there no way the real champ and PPV seller Hatton is going to agree to his terms.Originally posted by Martin.I think what's more likely is that Floyds says to Sports Network, "Yeah I'll fight Hatton for a 60/40 split", Sports Networks obviously say "**** OFF!"...

In general Mayweather needs to grow up, he goes too far with what he says.Comment

No, the WBC said when Floyd was at 135 that he wanted to fight Hatton in his 1st fight at 140 and Hatton turned him down and I believe that because Hatton was fighting all bums at the time. Also since the Gatti fight I have read plenty of interviews with Hattons managment and trainers and they all say they want Mayweather but not now. They all say it will be a bigger fight next year and stuff like that so I do believe he has again turned Floyd down. I dont believe Hatton would jump straight from Tszyu to Floyd. He wants a easy fight or 2 in between.Originally posted by Martin.I dunno from that chat...

So your trying to tell me that you guys have never heard Hatton's people say that they dont want the fight now? because I have read many articles when they have said thatOriginally posted by - Evil -Thats exactly what i think, all he said was Hatton camp turned down his offer.

You people fall for it everytime.
It's not like he says in the post fight interview that this fighter was easy.
He always points out the good things about the fighter after he beats them...it's just talk.Comment

I heard Hatton turned him down then, which i can understand, at that stage Mayweather was considered a boring fighter who couldnt sell tickets or get PPV, he didnt have a belt(at 140) either. There no way Hatton would risk fighting someone as good as Mayweather for no money or no title, even if he murdered him people would just say Mayweather was too small for 140.Originally posted by DLTNo, the WBC said when Floyd was at 135 that he wanted to fight Hatton in his 1st fight at 140 and Hatton turned him down and I believe that because Hatton was fighting all bums at the time.

You do realise we are in August, theres just over 3months to make the fight and for the fighters to go to camp. There no way the fight could happen in 2005, its just smart to fight in 2006, thats all Hatton camp are saying. Mayweathers camp just suggested a dumb timescale for the fight.
The important thing now is, Hatton is the champ and Mayweather has more a lot respect then when he first moved to 140, they could easily sit down and work out a deal.Last edited by - Evil -; 08-24-2005, 11:35 AM.Comment

I dunno man... I'm a pretty big Hatton fan, I've seen his last 20-25 fights LIVE on the tv, (I also saw him LIVE once and I met him at another fight night when he wasn't fighting). I follow his career closely.Originally posted by DLTNo, the WBC said when Floyd was at 135 that he wanted to fight Hatton in his 1st fight at 140 and Hatton turned him down and I believe that because Hatton was fighting all bums at the time.

I've never heard of this offer made to Hatton.
I'm not saying you're wrong... I just don't remember this offer ever being made, (And I've been reading the Hatton forums for years!).
It just sounds more like Mayweather talk to me.

People go on about the problems PBF is going to have with Margarito based on the Castillo fight - but Mayweather fought a much better fight in tbe rematch and seemed to learn how to deal more easily with Castillo's educated pressure. For me Floyd is a class above Margarito - but it would still be a better fight than a Mitchell one.Comment
