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.
Why?
The recognised No.1 Light welter fighting another highly rated Light Welter.
Bringing clarity to the division before hopping weights etc.
As opposed to the No.1 light welter defending to a man that has fought 2 divisions below him that same year.
I disagree Hatton already proved along time ago he was the number 1 Jr Welterweight in the 140 pound division, why does he need to prove it again in an even weaker version of the Jr Welterweight division ?? Pacquiao vs Hatton would make much more money, its what the fans want. Pacquiao has been getting stronger since moving up and he walks around at 140+. And it would be 10x times more exciting it for certain makes sense to me Donny, but i guess it wouldn't be too bad if Hatton fought Paulie and Pacquiao fought Valero then if both fighters win, then they can face eachother.
