Mayweather wants Hatton rematch

[Onix]

IF...Big IF, this is true I think I see it as a dirty ploy on Floyd's part to block Pacman from further cementing his grasp on the P4P title by beating on a fighter he already beat and keeping Manny from fighting him.

Dat evil villain Floyd eh? Logically he wouldn't do that for the simple reason he likes his money, & fightin the winner of that fight would make him A LOT more money than simply fightin Hatton agen

I totally agree, and thats why if he really is trying to come back to fight Hatton I think its to block Pac and keep his name in the lights...you know those Mayweathers like doing that!

Yall come on, this is about money. I can already see what Mayweather's plan is. Mayweather wants two big paydays in 2009. If he waits until after Pacquiao and Hatton fight then he can really only fight the winner for one big paycheck in the fall. He's probably thinking that he will give Hatton a rematch in the UK where the fight will be bigger and STILL make a 15-20 Million purse. If he wins the fight, which he probably feels he can easily, then he can fight Pacquiao for another 20 Million purse in the fall. Coldblooded to Pacquiao because he would have stolen Pacquiao's big May paycheck. It's a good strategy though if your Floyd though.

There are two possibilities here (assuming this isn't all just bullshit).

Floyd wants to fight Hatton because he would make a shit load of cash doing it in England, less than he would make for fighting Pac, but still a significant amount of coin. It is also a MUCH less risky fight (sorry Hatton fans).

OR

Like albsur says, PBF wants TWO big paydays when he comes back, Pac and Hatton. He won't let the two of them disrupt that, so he fights Hatton and then fights Pac.

Maweather should wait. He comes back wanting a rematch with somebody he has already knocked out??

hi, i seen some of your posts saying you think hatton can beat mayweather, and im with you on that, so why do you think he should wait for pacman and hatton to fight first. i think balls to that, sack pacman off and get that rematch signed asap!

Then your both insane Ricky Hatton lost almost every round, and was doubled in punches landed. What can Ricky Hatton do better in a rematch ? he was beat on the inside at his own game, so if he was beat on the inside how the hell can he possibly win ?

what can ricky hatton do better in a rematch? well everythin really, for a start his head movement will be alot better, hes being trained by a better trainer than last time, we can have a decent ref, and hopefully hatton wont be riled up like e was last time. dont forget floyd has been inactive for over a year.

Hatton did not come close the first time out what would make you think he can beat Floyd now

[hackey]

He could do alot better than he did, but I still pick Mayweather.

Im not surprised!!Let hatton fight pacman then take it from there!It makes sense.Mind you i would love to see a rematch either way!!

I doubt this is even true, no way Floyd would come out of retirement to fight Hatton again, what for?

Manny Pacquaio is the draw now. For the first time in his career Floyd has a genuine rival for his p4p crown. He finally has the opportunity to get his defining fight against another all time great still in his prime and currently on fire.

In the light of those circumstances he wants to come back and fight a guy he completely embarrassed a few months ago........bullshit

completely embarressed?
totally diagree, he beat hatton, and most had it close on the cards at the time.

however if he fights the winner of pac or hatton at 140 it WILL bbe a defineing fight.

its the one for him in my opinon

close? i had it 6 rounds to 3 in those prior to the stoppage with Ricky lookin faded. Even on sky sports, jim watt, who i think would happily get in the ring & wank ricky off sumtimes, admitted that round 8 was so 1 sided it probably should have been 10-8. It was by no means close enough to warrant a rematch despite the stoppage, such as Cotto-Margarito for example. This doesn't mean I wouldn't mind seein them fight again, but Mayweather would be takin da fight as a payday rather than a challenge like Pac is

[albsur2006]

Well forget all this talk, Leonard Ellerbe just came out and said Floyd is enjoying his retirement and that nobody from Floyd's team has contacted Ray Hatton or Ricky Hatton's lawyer. I remember a long time ago earlier in the year when Floyd wasn't retired yet, Ricky said that he'd talked to Floyd over texts and Floyd was interested in the rematch. I really hope that Hatton isn't trying to use that conversation six months ago to negotiate with Pacquiao. That fight should be 50/50 down the middle, let's get it done.

I think this is just to up the ante on both Hatton and PBF... They know PAC is the man right now and they would like to strengthen their bargaining power for a PAC fight by saying they would like to have a rematch... They want to show that they have other "big" fights aside from the one against PAC...

Rematch? Why the talk only now? And also I think very few is interested in this rematch fight...

Mayweather didnt want to fight Oscar in a rematch for millions, why would he want to fight Hatton again for less. He knocked the guy out. He should wait for the winner of a Pac-Hatton fight. He chose to retire, so he can get back in the line imo.

oh really! well sorry to prove you wrong but mayweather snr was asked this and he said ricky is paying me, my son is not.

Mayweather should get back in line.....and exactly what demand or reason is there for a hatton rematch..Been there,done that.He Imo should be fighting Cotto,Margarito,Clottey,Williams,Mosley.....one of the guys sitting in his house reclining on his sofa right now.Hatton and Pac makes cents,and I think a bigger audience and more dollars...better stylistically,fan friendly
