Hatton's next fight in Vegas - cheaper for the fans?

[littlebif]

Everyone seems to be getting on Hattons back for fighting in Vegas but for years britain has waited for a fighter that can top the bill on regular occasions at the biggest stage in the US we have only had Lewis lately and Hatton is doing this.I dont see a problem as long as he has his last fight in britain.

Hatton is such a fake bastard it's laughable (or maybe it's his Dad)

He's fighting in Vegas for the "fans sake"

What happened to the Powderpuff fight (which is average at best) making such good sense because it would allow Ricky to realise one of his dreams - topping the bill at Madison Square Garden

I don't think anyone begrudges him taking the money from Vegas, what people are pissed at is that he is also taking the MICKEY with his 'for the fans' comments .

agreed Bomp - and cheers for the rep


and as someone points out above - what happened to his wanting to top the bill at MSG before he retires ?? Fair play he wants to make as much money as he can before he goes and the $$ of Vegas must have been tough to resist but with a farewell v Pacman at Wembley he will rake it in big time and he knows it

hope no one goes as they are saving for a top notch Wembley ticket like me

had it been NY I was there - not just for the fight but would have put a longer trip round it (always fancied doing the Rocky stairs in Philly ) - so guess I am bitter about that

Both Hatton and Joe should have their last fights in the UK, whenever that may be against lower grade UK fighters, Witter and Froch.
