Another excuse for Hatton to dodge Witter.
(that's a joke.. just in case :rolleyes:)
BBC SPORT | Boxing | Mayweather 'wants Hatton rematch'
Richard Schaefer, head of Golden Boy promotions, said: "It's very likely that Floyd will come over next spring.
"Floyd and his manager Al Hayman are very serious about it."
perhaps you could ad cotto-dodger, make it a fight for the dodgers.
Fuck! Wish I'd thought of that.. but I don't really have a problem with the Cotto-dodger like i do the Witter dodger ;DQuote:

They just need Hatton to beat Lacazno (or whatever he is called) and then Malignaggi to establish himself again - as said they also have the excuse of the referee business.
They can sell out wembley no problem - which could be what ? £75 for the cheap seats ??
Money talks - though I don't see a different outcome in what would be Hatton's last fight...
Only Lacazno, Malignaggi, DLH or The Big Show can ctop it now ;)
If it does happen I got money that Steve Smoger gets picked to ref it.
Well a rematch between Floyd vs Hatton , i think Hatton don't have nothing more to show , what they want another Big Purse , i think that going convert just in another game like ODLH vs Floyd.........:-\ That is if that happen......

Floyd wants the fight because there are a limited number of fights where he can earn huge money and this is one of them. I think it'll be an English ref, which means that Floyd is confident he can beat Hatton even if he's allowed to hold/maul etc.
Once Hatton sold fifty thousand tickets in five minutes to fight a never was this became an obvious earner for both guys.
I hope this fight doesn't happen. At least Floyd vs Oscar 1 was competitive, the Hatton fight was just an embarrasment.
I have to say that if Floyd does indeed fight Oscar and then signs for a Hatton rematch I will have to join Danny G in voicing for him to be stripped of his welterweight title.:-X
Hatton brings nothing to the table whatsoever. He demonstrated emphatically last time out that he was in way over his head. The only good that will come of this fight is another amusing avatar for Violent D :-\
I too would have to say that Floyd should be stripped of the WBC title if this fight came off...but it would damn sure be fun to watch Floyd kick his arse again just 30 minutes down the road from me ;D
This is how I think Floyds last 4 matches should be before he ends his career (with this match in mind) :-
Oscar
Cotto \
Hatton/ (the order of these 2 are interchangeable, Hatton may make a nice warmup for Cotto)
Pacquaio
Mayweather remains undefeated and fittingly beats the number 2 p4p fighter in the world to solidify his status as the best boxer of this generation. Sorted!
There you go, you are finally seeing the light. ;DQuote:

He'll beat Hatton, and then fight Oscar again, in which they will hype it as the two best fighters, fighting for the last time. Then they will both retire, while laughing at all the suckers that bought into it. ;D
gotta agree Judah, and Baldimir deserves a rematch before hatton... but hatton does bring something to the table and that is his fans and $$$$$$ hell his next fight supposedly sold thousands of tickets and if its not all to touts that is some feat for a mismatch but floyd vs hatton 2 would be a massive event in the UK but lets not kid ourselfs that its for anything other than money....Quote:

Bit unfair seeing as Hatton was ahead on the cards until the knob of a ref deducted a point from an phantom 'illegal' punch.Quote:

Either way, it's pretty obvious that this is about money otherwise the average fight fan would much rather see Floyd/Cotto and Hatton/Witter...:(
I said for a joke Mayweather would have rematches with ODH and Hatton before he fights Cotto and it really may happen. Complete and utter crap. Hatton has no right asking for a rematch, the ref excuse is not enough of one. He got embarrassed in that fight but he is willing to do it again for the money. Bitch. Mayweather, I know will do anything to avoid a fight against a hungry and dangerous Welterweight.
