In 2006, PBF chased the fight a bit but Hatton priced himself out to the tune of 13 million dollars. Now Hatton is choosing to move back down to 140 and chase titles again after initially moving up to 147 because PBF was. I would easily say Hatton doesn't want none of PBF, but every once while he'll give an interview saying that he doesn't think that Floyd is that impressive and blah, blah, blah. I don't understand what his plans are. Anybody that keeps up with Ricky, what do you think he is doing? Is he happy with making good money fighting mandatories for the rest of his career without a big challenge or is he waiting until he gets more experience?
i dont know where you get your info from but its wrong..
hatton wants floyd.. and floyd wants hatton.. and in fairness its prob both theyr faults for hatton wanting a big payday for the risk, and floyds massive ego...
niether is scared..
hatton did want floyd at 140... and floyd could have had hatton at 140 but floyd went round saying gati has a paper title.. then went and fought for that which meant nothing.. this is just after hatton beat the man at 140 which was tszyu..
hatton stayed at 140 and fought moussa... another good opponent, another title..
floyd took his paper title from gatti and moved to 147 to beat mitchell which was no chalenge for floyd
so there is no way that hatton didnt want to fight pbf.. if anything more likely the other way..
