Can't remember anyone saying that Hatton did not help to sell the fight, even the dumbest person who watched it knew that the crowd was dominated by the British who traveled many miles to see the fight, that alone gave it away. Silly if you ask me
I was talking about PPV sales.No-one thought Hatton was anywhere near the draw Mayweather is. Wrong,he's actually a bigger draw!Judging by this fight especially seeing as Hatton was probably more well known in the States than Mayweather in the UK.

All together? I think it falls just short of Mayweather Oscar but fricking heck,Hatton really does not need to leave the UK to fight!!I mean I knew he was popular but THIS popular?! He drew in more numbers than Floyd in the States?!

Random Brit: "Hello?"

BBC: "Where did you watch the Hatton fight?"

Random Brit: "I'm just 6 years old!"

BBC: "Stay put, we are sending a van to your house. And your neighboors house. So don't try to..."

What do you mean bro? Like they did after the JC and Kess fight,like a week later? If that's what you mean,I totally agree.
