    To be honest i am happy to hear this. Hatton would of just added another loss to his record. Good to seee he's focusing on things at light welter. Oscar should just fight mora.

    Hatton is too small for Oscar. He is sensible to decline any bout with Ye Golden Boy of the prestigious temple of promoter masonry.

    I heard about this Floyd retirement business on BBC World. No computer for over a week whilst waiting for my new one to be delivered! I survived!
    He'll be back!

    So i take it all you hatton haters are now eating a very nice serving of humble pie.

    Ricky could of let this freak show take place and earned himself 3 times whatever he would get from fighting malignaggi or torres.

    But hatton has allowed common sense to dictate in this one and has put his legacy ahead of his bank balance!!

    Or Hatton figured out that another ko isn't worth all that money...

    Not that surprising really, if he's gonna have one last big money fight (granted nothing's quite as big money as Oscar) it might as well be against somebody he has a chance of beating. Obviously that means Pac.

    Hatton-Pac is a mismatch. How is beating Pac going to add to his legacy?

    That's not a bad point, is there really that much difference between what Hatton would be doing there and what Oscar was doing? Except I'm sure he'll just say you said it only cause you're a Hatton hater.

    Of course you are a Hatton hater, its still a decent point.

    Beating little "stars" didn't hurt Hopkins.

    Well that's true on the ODLH part, but Tito had all ready fought at 160 and had looked good. I don't think 160 was his best weight (154 IMO) but he wasn't tiny for the weight, Hopkins was just a much better fighter anyway IMO. Oscar was less suited to be at 160 IMO.

    Pac hasn't even fought at 135 yet so it doesn't compare to Hopkins-Trinidad yet to me.

    I find it funny that the Hatton groupies hated the thought of a Hatton-Oscar fight. But got no problem with Hatton-Pac. Hatton groupies are so hypocritical it's hilarious.

    Ive openly stated on endless occasions that ricky should not fight pac.

    Why ricky would choose to look outside the box is beyond me.

    Fight paulie in the garden which hatton has always wanted
    then fight torres in vegas sometime march/april

    why is that so hard to envisage

    I was surprized to see the call from DeLaHoya turned down. I hope that Hattons loss with Mayweather hasn't turned into a monkey on his back, because what a great fighter! But it was probably a good business decision to back off at this time! Hatton's the one in the ring, so why shouldn't he get payed well? DeLaHoya sure does!
