Hatton: "Pressure is off!", Graham: "Ricky's still the best!"

Nice story. Plucked from your ass, but nice none the less.

thats all you have to respond to my post with? get the **** outta here and come back with something worth reading instead of just trying to discredit my post with this garbage. if you watched the floyd/gatti fight dip**** you would of seen thats what they were talking about a potential fight between floyd, hatton and cotto.

Don't try to pass your theory off as fact then. Maybe Hatton & Cotto were purely there to see a big fight in their division. I know that's what Hatton described it as. That and showing his face in the US after his exposure against Tszyu.

FYI, Hatton only asked for time to build his profile in the US once Floyd reneged on his offer to fight in the UK after he saw what he did to Tszyu. Hatton offered the fight for early 2006 but Floyd went for Judah instead. There was never any mention of either fighter pricing themselves out. Get a ****ing clue.

Hatton pricing himself out is a fact. They've admitted it many times in interviews. It's no secret...

After seeing what Hatton did to Tsyzu in the UK (wrestle), I'm not surprised Floyd didn't want to go there...

How are fights with little known Collazo and Urango building his profile in the US? He could really build his fanbase here with a big fight... maybe with some guy named Mayweather...

No, he didn't want Hatton.

If he did he would have pursued the fight, not just get his management to put down an offer.. if Hatton did accept, Floyd might have moved up regardless, think out of the box, dumbass, speculate.

If Hatton wanted it, why wouldn't he pursue it or try to negotiate? When has Hatton every made an offer to Floyd?

[El Jesus]

i have to disagree and i will explain why, when floyd moved up to 140 to fight gatti there was a reason why hatton was ringside and that is because floyd/hatton was the fight to be setup next and when the offer was on the table for hatton he and his team backed out by saying they needed more time and then he priced himself out. maybe it was because he was ringside and seen what floyd did to gatti (not saying gatti is on hattons level) and knew he wasn't ready yet. regardless it's a fight that i would like to see no doubt so i hope it happens soon.

the night of that fight just about everyone in my house said him and cotto looked like they were in shock

[medium-deek]

Hatton/Mayweather will happen, eventually. This Hatton is avoiding Mayweather **** is getting boring. It will happen.

[GEOFFHAYES]

He's targetting guys like Gatti (he's done)

He targetted Gatti because Gatti is one of his hero's and was always his dream fight.

[GEOFFHAYES]

when a guy asks for 13 million

Ricky didn't ask for 13 million. Ray did.

Ricky's dad Ray is in charge of the business side of thing, always has been. Ricky just takes care of the fighting.
