Hopefully Paulie can put on the fight of his life and beat Fatton thus forcing Floyd to step up and face a real opponent.
I do not want Hatton to loose to Paulie, his ego would be bigger than it is already. I just hope he does the decent thing and stay at light welter and fight Witter next year.
IF ONLY the Witter-dodger believed that ;)Quote:

If Hatton believes he can win, good on him for going up against a guy who's just ko'd him.
This is something Mayweather is obviously doing for the money. Can't blame him really. I know what i'd do ;)
I think Hatton genuinely wants another crack at it because he feels he didn't get a fair shout last time...i tend to agree.
Don't think the outcome will be any different.
But the first fight wasn't the total whitewash that some on here are making it out to be. It was close until the deduction.
With that said....in an ideal world Mayweather would fight Cotto and Hatton would fight Witter. But boxing is far from an ideal world when there is this kind of money involved.
Hatton should get Dave Parris to ref. Then he can do whatever he wants.
I rather see De La Hoya massacre Hatton instead.
Agree on both points.Quote:

Where are the 24/7 programs to raise the profile of the real challengers to the real champions? The argument that a fight has to make money to make sense doesn't hold water when the likes of GBP make a concsious decision to hype bullshit fights like Oscar/Floyd ll above fights of more significance like Cotto/Floyd.
According to this article, Mayweather/Hatton II is just a rumor.

it shouldn't happen but knowing mayweather he would probably take it lol
If there is definately no fight, why has he gone to the trouble of saying "Hatton would have to beat Lazcano and ODLH would have to beat Mayweather?"Quote:

He said - Oscar is going to beat Mayweather so there is no fight.
