Why the hell would Hatton want a rematch with Mayweather anyway ?? it would be one of the most pointless rematches in recent years.
But, if there was only a different referee (maybe Hatton's mom will be available this time), and if Floyd wasn't allowed to foul Hatton like Hatton was allowed to foul Tszyu, and if it was fought in a smaller ring, and if the fight had been in the U.K., and if Hatton had been allowed to do steroids for 3 months prior to the fight, and if he was allowed to carry a lead pipe into the ring he could have won!</sarcasm>
Sorry Hatton fans, I like the guy too, but I'm sick of hearing excuses for his loss to PBF. He was beat by the better man and he'd lose to Floyd 9 times out of 10 regardless of the circumstances.
First of all Hatton will never get a PBF rematch, he never won a round and was KTFO! Secondly, this is a bad match up for Pac as i believe Hatton would be to big and strong for the Pac man. Thirdly, i don't think Hatton knows what direction to take his career after losing to PBF. One thing is for certain it won't be heading toward a second PBF fight!
i dont know about losing 10 out of 10
mayweather looked the most uncomfortable in the ring against hatton than any other fighter. and I gave hatton a couple rounds not many but a couple.
a spontaneous creation with multiple moods.
I just want to see Ricky come back and beating Lazcano convincingly. He just got knocked out fer christs sakes. One at a time, one at a time.
im the biggest hatton fan you could meet, and i have no excuses for his loss to floyd, floyd was easily the better fighter.no doubt about that. however no matter what anybody says joe cortez didnt cost hatton the fight but he certainly did not referee that fight well. I think hatton v mayweather 2 might not be everybodys cup of tea but i wanna see it regardess. If its true that mayweather wants a rematch then hatton should jump at the chance even if its at 147. People woud say mayweather should fight margarito and he probably should but he will make 10 times the money fighting hatton.
But it would be one of the funniest rematches as wellI love Hatton, have for a while. I like his style for the most part and to a degree; but I never thought he belonged in the ring with Floyd and I never will. You need more than what he can bring to the ring to beat Floyd. He'll get brutalized so bad in a rematch it would be criminal.
As far as Hatton/Pac, it would be a barnburner of a little fight. I was holding out hope of seeing Hatton/Juan Diaz one day, but I guess it won't ever happen.
Let me get this straight...
He escapes with a razor-thin and controversial decision at 147 against Luis Collazo, then gets KO'ed by PBF at that same weight.
Now, he either wants a rematch with PBF, or a fight with PAC, a 130-pound fighter.
Are opponents that scarce at 140![]()
Well not that I like the idea of a Pac fight (and I hate the idea of a PBF rematch) but kind of, yeah. I mean who's out there, there's Malignaggi who he's already planning on fighting. Other than that there's Timothy Bradley and I'm not sure who would think of that as a big fight. There's Ricardo Torres which know that I think about it is probably the best fight besides Malignaggi. But there's not much at 140. Funny cause were not that far away from when it was the division with Hatton, Tsyzu, PBF, etc.
There are some prospects, Victor Ortiz and Lamont Peterson for example but they aren't going to get a shot right now.
He wants to avenge his only loss, can you blame him for wanting to put the record straight ?? I remember Jeff Lacy calling Calzaghe out like 6-12 months after he got beat wanting a rematch.
A combination of the point deduction, bad (let's say) refereeing from Cortez and the cut Hatton knows and admits he lost his rag, therefore if the fight was to happen in UK (Which it would) then Hatton probbably thinks the ref will be as fair to both fighters rather than sucking one's dick then he would fancy his chances. Floyd would want the fight, I remember Richard Schafer or however you spell his name saying Floyd fighting in the UK and in front of 90,000 screaming Hatton fans that it would be a new challenge to him and he would accept it providing Hatton wins another title. ICB there really is a big chance of this fight happeneing, Cotto isn't a "big-name" or somebody "with a big following" for Floyd and let's remember Floyd only wants the money fights now (Hence why he's fighting ODLH next) and with Hatton's fuckin huge fanbase the Hitman fits that.
