I used to think this way, but I've changed my mind a little. I wouldn't be shocked anymore if Floyd were willing to go to the UK.
Two reasons:
1. We all know Floyd is cocky and confident. He probably thinks that he's so much better than Ricky Hatton that he doesn't even need to worry about Hatton getting hometown scoring from the judges.
2. Floyd is an attention whore. He wants people to notice him and pay attention to him. If this fight were in the UK, it would be a HUGE event, and that would mean more people watching, listening, and paying attention to him.

Hatton is not that big a draw stateseide for it to be a big fight, is he??
Well he's not that big of a draw, but if he could look really impressive against Castillo, then he would win a lot of respect among fans.
Also, I'm sure plenty of UK fans would travel over here for the fight if it were in Vegas.
