    I'm asking this since Team Hatton seems not entertaining the Pacquiao challenge and they prefer to fight Paulie instead of Pacquiao in November. I'm confused since the Paulie fight is nowhere near in magnitude compared to the Pacquiao fight.

    Paulie also said that he will not "step aside". Why? Is this a mandatory fight? For all I know, Paulie is the champion of IBF while Hatton is the IBO champion. They're both champs. Now who's the mandatory of whom?

    .
    Hatton-Paulie is not signed.

    Also please don't refer to Hatton as champ because of the IBO belt it kills me to read that.
    Hattons the champ because he has the Ring Belt and is the lineal champ not because of that green piece of shit belt.

    The thing here is that Hatton is that he's trying to be a man of his word and a Hatton-Paulie fight has been in the talks for some time now. So I think Hatton wants to honor that. Last I checked there was no #1 challenger to Paulies title. I think Hattons rated #5 in the IBF.
    Certainly Hattons not defending his stupid IBO belt.
    I think it has more to do with #1 vs. #2 in the general rankings.

    If Hatton-Paulie not yet signed then why all this news of Paulie not stepping aside or Paulie needing a step aside money?

    Who is really not wanting a Hatton-PAC fight? The fans want it, promoters want it (not sure with GBP tho), HBO (or Showtime) want it. Everybody want it and who's this entity trying to prevent a Hatton-PAC fight?

    "Boxing Politics"? Can you explain what's the politics behind of not making the Hatton-PAC in November? Or else I tend to believe somebody in Hatton's camp is afraid of the PACMAN.

    Could be it some other megafight happening in December?

    If what you want to hear is that Hattons scared of Pac then I can just tell you if you'd like? Let me know.

    If I knew about these boxing politics here I probably wouldn't be on this site right now. I'd probably be someone involved around this fight/fighters.

    Just off the top of my head, where would you stage the fight?
    Vegas or UK?
    While Pac brings lots of people to Vegas he can't do what Hatton does in the UK.

    Does it make sense for Pac to have 1 fight at Lightweight and immediately move up another div?

    Who do you pay more Pac the P4P fighter OR the champion who would be defending his title? (Since Pac would be moving up to challenge)

    Takes those few things there and try to work them out. Then think of how it would be worked out between both sides.

    These are just a few things that sprung to mind.

    Also while Hatton has the Ring title, the only strap he currently dons is the IBO one. You can bet your bottom dollar a fight this big doesn't come off without one of the big 4 commissions cutting into the action somehow.
    Guess who does have a strap Mr. Malignaggi. Hence enter the politics.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Wheww... that's a lot of politics but I believe this can be iron out... Is equal purse will work out? Or a 55/45 split in favor of Hatton the most logical?

    Come on "Boxing Politics", make this fight happen in November...

    Seen as Hatton already agreed to fight Paulie 6mths ago in Newyork in November, turned down Oscar, is a man of his word plus the fact Paulie wont accept step aside money ALL of that considering yoes its clear Hatton is afraid of Pacquaio

    Gimmie a break!

    I think that to say Hatton Pac is of a far greater magnitude shows a lack of interest in pure boxing imo.

    Hatton vs. Pacquaio is a marquee fight. It's only purose is to generate huge sums of moiney and public interest.

    As regards boxing significance Hatton vs. Pauoilie is afr more significant.

    Bob Arum - "all these reports (about a Hatton fight this year) are just ludicrous."

    PLus.. if the fight happened in a stadium (100,000 punters) it needs to be summer time (although I don't think this will be the case).
