LOL if he doesnt care about the business side why is he asking for 13million to fight Floyd, also LOl at every guy you named on that list bar Tyszu, Hatton is intimidated by Floyd's skills, he knows that he would get absolutely beaten up and outclassed , you say hes that good but the fact is hes not, hes good but thats it, you say he has no say in who he fights ok then lets not blame RJJ and PBF for fighting a few bums, stick 2 Eubank its all you know
its easy for Floyd to say that because its true, he 2wice rejected him then he asked for 13million to fight him LOl

If a mod sees this, your banned.
And yes, Ricky has nothing to do with the business side of things. That's his dad Ray. Here's a funny story: Ray insisted that Ricky came along to meetings with him, as it was his ****ing career, so he dragged Ricky along one time and after speaking with Warren and everybody else around a table for about an hour they turned to Ricky and asked him for his opinion - it turned out Ricky hadn't been listening to a word of what they'd been discussing and had just been sitting there texting his mates the whole time!
Ricky once told his his dad (quote according to Ray): "You sort out the business stuff, I love boxing and that's all I'm interested in him - all I want to do is fight. I'll leave all the other stuff down to you."
Schooled??? Hatton won the fight by decision so i'd hardly associate that verdict with being schooled. It was a tougher fight for Hatton than he would've thought but i certainly don't think that he got schooled by Collazo!
I have a question. What the hell happened to Hatton's "I really want Floyd Mayweather in Madison Square Garden this year". . I think he lost guts after getting schooled by Collazo. He knows, Mayweather would pop shot him and toy with him all night. Hatton got quiet all of a sudden. He don't want none of PBF.

is there a link to that story
fact is he knows that Mayweather has 2wice been turned down. An it ws him that asked for 13million
The one thing I don't like about Hatton is that he doesn't give rematches to Champions (now former)...Tszyu, he said yes, even willing to fight in Australia, then he backs down a bit from that comment and the end was when Billy Graham said "NO rematch, NO need, Tszyu should retire"...Collazo, "NO REMATCH"...WTF is up with that...even Floyd gave Castillo a rematch because it was close and people questioned the victory...the main difference between Floyd and Ricky is that Floyd is a bit more paranoid with how people perceive his Legacy: if you question it, he says "put the MF in front of me and I will beat him...{if he beats the person and there are still questions}... put the MF in front of me again and I will beat him easier"
I wish Ricky was like that, plus, with Ricky's style it makes for more exciting fights.
Ricky said that a fight between him and Floyd would be like "Leonard vs Duran", the only problem with that is Ricky, unlike Duran, if he won the first fight, there wouldn't be a second fight...imagine if Duran didn't give Leonard the rematch, we wouldn't have seen the master performance from the great Ray Leonard..."NO MAS" fight would never have happened.
No it would of been his dad, the business side of things is in his hands.
I don't want to hear these excuses from fighters saying "I will have to ask my promoter"...When are fans, and the fighter going to realize that the FIGHTER is the one that makes the fights, without him, there are no promoters, there are no television shows for boxing.
Ricky has the ability to make the decisions, bottom line.
