I thought Hatton was done with fighting bums...

The Hatton's have already said that if the Mayweather fight was offered to them, they'd take it straight away.

And plus, who is a bum? Me or you have maybe never seen this guy but he's one of his mandatories. If he got stripped, you'd be hatin', he's defending and you're still hatin'. Matter of fact, I think you're just hatin'.

If he fights floyd, he will be doing what you dont want him to do.

Hatton will be fighting his mandatory, a bum or not, it's his obligation to the alphabet soup. Hatton will eventually fight PBF. Read more.

In addition, Hatton reportedly will bypass an offer from Golden Boy Promotions, that would have put him on the May 6 super card in Las Vegas featuring Oscar De La Hoya vs Ricardo Mayorga

Stop the bulls**t Hatton, make Floyd your next fight!!!

im glad hes fighting a mandatory. there are too many cases where fighters unify the titles only to break them apart looking for other fights instead of mandatories.

now THAT is bull****.

Hatton is a bum because he is fighting a mandatory, and when news came in that Mayweather could be fighting his mandatory (Witter) it was all "Ok then, thats cool".

**** outta here.
