Yea but don't kid yourself... As long as Hatton's camp are seriously anticipating a Pac fight in 2008, you think they are going to put him in with Witter or Malignaggi first?? Hell I'm not sure he'd beat those guys, not to mention how he would look against either of their styles..
You may be right. But, on the other hand, it certainly isn't a given that Pacman will get by JMM, so they might not wish to count their chickens and assume the fight will happen. I don't think he'll fight Witter. While the fight would probably be big in the UK, there would be about zero interest in that fight in the US, and Hatton is interested in making a big name over here, so I don't see that one happening, and the reasons are understandable from the business side of things. I could see the Paulie fight coming off, though. We'll see. I just don't see anything "pathetic" about him taking on Pacman given the $$$ involved. The purse dwarfs anything else he could make, sans a fight with De La Hoya.
And if Mayweather didn't KO him, he'd probably be fighting DLH next. It just seems like a bitch move to fight Pac, especially considering most would want to bounce back and reestablish themselves after a loss.. To do that he needs to beat a world class fighter his own size. If he doesn't think he can do it, then why fight at all.
Well, maybe he will fight and beat a world class fighter before the end of this year, which is when the fight would supposedly happen. As far as "why fight at all" goes, the answer is pretty simple...$$$. There is a LOT of dough for Hatton to make by fighting Pacman. That might not be a satisfactory answer to some die hard boxing fans, but it is certainly understandable. And, as I said before, I don't think it is as much of a mismatch as some are implying. Pacman's superior speed could rule the day if he fights a disciplined bout.

If Pacquiao gets by Marquez on March 15, he would move up in weight to 135-pounds to challenge David Diaz for the WBC lightweight title. The Diaz fight would probably happen in June/July. If he beats Diaz, the next step would be Hatton.
What a fwooking joke.IF Hatton takes this fight,it's pathetic. Fighting a former FLYWEIGHT.Whos' first and probably ONLY fight at 140 will be Hatton. Ricky has made enough money to be comfortable (surely?) and has far more worthy challengers like Witter and Paulie.
As for Manny,talk about SKIMMING divisions.This is THE perfect example of when someone talks about jumping weights and winning titles,and saying you're a mutiple weight champ,does not always look as good as it sounds. David Diaz?In a division where there are guys like Kats,Cas,Juan Diaz.
Agreed, but....
its all about the money now my friend. Hatton will give him a bit of a doosting at 140. they are both looking at their pensions and to be fair they will both make a fortune, cant blame em really...p4p manny is the better guy, no doubt. It would be weird to watch Hatton Vs Pac..
Re: Ricky Hatton serious about fighting Manny.......(pathetic)
I did not give you a sc though. Someone gave me a cc and it did not even register on mine. I tried to give you a cc but it said karma. I will probably be able to give you another CC tonight. I have only ever given one sc, and that was for someone being an jerk, and not even at me, but at wacko.
Re: Ricky Hatton serious about fighting Manny.......(pathetic)
And now I have another one!hahaha
And now another. Someone is having fun!lOL
Re: Ricky Hatton serious about fighting Manny.......(pathetic)
No biggie, and it wasn't me giving you a sc, I just got back to the house and I only give SC's to Bilbo ;D

So it's you you KUNT! >:mad
You have to give me a coolclick now for being mean to me :yay2:
Re: Ricky Hatton serious about fighting Manny.......(pathetic)
im a little confused, this would be a big money spinner for Hatton and another chance to fight a great, if this fight goes ahead (which i btw agree it shouldnt) would it not be the manny camp who are in the wrong?
Re: Ricky Hatton serious about fighting Manny.......(pathetic)
There is a long way to go yet. If Pacman is going to tackle Juan Diaz 1st. Let's see how Pacman does against Marquesz and Diaz and Hatton in his comeback. At the moment it doesn't seem feasable but this is boxing and anything can happen.
I think if Ricky gets back to winning ways then Pacman will soon change his mind.

O.k., here's # 1452 CC for you Bubble Boy Bilbo. I don't give SC's, but if I did they would all go to you. Now go somewhere and die so I can peruse a copy of your eulogy, if by chance someone gave you one :)
Re: Ricky Hatton serious about fighting Manny.......(pathetic)
Funny thing is is that lots of people will give Hugman more credit if he beat Pac than when Mayweather beat Hugman,its the same thing a guy coming up in weight to fight a bigger guy.

My eulogy would have to be written by myself, pre-recorded and self narrated. It would be a tremendous eulogy full of praise for the dashing, bravest little hobbit of them all.
My gravestone would have a simple epitaph, reading simply' In a hole in the ground there was buried a hobbit....'

COME ON JMM!!! >:mad >:mad
i'm willing to take any kind of bet with you and legion. (like taking candy from a baby lol.)
Heart:Wants JMM to win badly. Head:Manny. Head usually wins,so I'm predicting Manny on points but I want JMM to win bad.
ok, how 'bout a month's cc bet then that pac wins via the short route?
Re: Ricky Hatton serious about fighting Manny.......(pathetic)
OK, after watching Malignaggi fight like pure trash tonight, does anyone really want to see Hatton waste his time on him?
