Hatton: " Fight with Mayweather is Done Deal For 2006"

[baya]

TuPrincipe you sure have a lot to say for a guy who gave a big dramatic "Goodbye Boxingscene" post only to come trolling back under several accounts in hiding.

If you're going to be a flip flop and are going to post here, why can't you man up and use your original account.

Shame perhaps?

i remember that post ... at first really didn't care for tu principe, cuz the name was just gay. but he knows his stuff like a lot of others on here. i've seen him post since his "goodbye" post though, under his original name.

if gavilan is tu principe, power to him for changing that gay name.

The "as far as I'm concerned" tells me this isn't a official or "done".

it isnt as Junior Witter is the mandatory number 1 for Gayweather

out of those 4 names listed..if hatton fought all 4 this year..i say he comes away with 3 loses..he probably can out muscle FREITAS..but castillo pounds him, mayweather beats him, and corrales beats him

He'd walk right through Coralles. Hatton took some huge shots against Tszyu and Tszyu punches harder than Coralles. He'd be too big and strong for Castillo. Mayweather is a true fifty fifty fight, if I had to put money on it I'd probably have to go with PBF unfortunately, but it would be an exciting fight and one I would not be surprised if Ricky won.

Amen, and fair play to Hatton....

He said he wants a debut in America, against one of those 4 opponents, and then its Mayweather.

Now where are those people saying Mayweather - Hatton wouldnt happen?

<------ right here. Mayweather will chicken out for whatever reason. I think it's as even a fight as you can get, so I don't know WHY Mayweather would chicken out. But rest assured, he will.

[DiegoFuego]

I also gotta ask. Why did Hatton name four potential opponents, none of whom even fights at 140lbs???

Well if that is the case, then the only reason PBF - Hatton never happened is down to Mayweather...

Im playing the game though, you know. Everyone on this site is all like "Hatton ducks Mayweather rar rar rar"... we all know that if this fight doesnt happen, who is to blame.

[DiegoFuego]

Oh definitely. If it doesn't happen, I will only believe it's Mayweather's fault. I think Hatton is for real when he says he wants to accomplish all he can and be the man at 140lbs. Besides, why NOT fight Mayweather? If you lose, nobody is going to diss you. If you win (Hatton that is), you're the best fighter in the world. Win-win situation.

Good point. Corrales has no reason to move up in weight, nor does Freitas. Hatton beat a past-his-prime Tszyu, and other than that, what other quality opponents has he fought. The way he puts pressure on his opponents generally works very well, but it would play right into Castillo's strengths. Castillo is the only guy that was mentioned that will move up soon, and that would be no picnic for Hatton. It would actually be a very entertaining fight.

You say Tszyu wasnt in his prime.

Tszyu disagree's.

I don't know why they just don't come out and say they are fighting Gatti. I mean it's pretty obvious because Corrales and Castillo are tied up and Freitas is going to fight for the vacant title. They keep throwing out these names that are already tied up.

Good point..I dont really want to see Gatti in there with Hatton. I think Floyd would outbox Ricky, but Gatti's another story.
