Does Hatton really want to fight Oscar? Or just for the $$$$?

[Plopeater]

For the money clearly

[NorthSideX4]

Actually im afraid of what Oscar will do to Hatton as if really hurt him & maybe shatter his ego

I think Hatton is one of the most honest men in boxing.

Heis fighting for legacy. Should he beat Paulie and the winner of Oscar/Pac he will become a ATG. The Floyd loss will be put down to disgraceful officiating.

I'm still not sure if he will get past Paulie cuz Paulie has good footspeed & handspeed! This fight will be good & a big test for Hatton!

[XaduBoxer]

Of course $$$$ ...

I have to say... I always find it funny when someone asks "Is he fighting (insert opponent's name) just for the money?"

Of course it's for the money!! That's why they call it "prizefighting."

Ricky Hatton wants Oscar because of the money.... just like Manny is fighting Oscar for the money... just like Floyd fought Oscar for the money... just like Marvin Hagler wanted to fight Ray Leonard because of the money... just like Frazier and Ali fought each other because of the money.

That's a ludicrous and ridiculous statement. When they were allowed to fight on the inside, PBF was dominating Hatton. Ricky's mom could've been the ref and PBF still would've beat him. What exactly would've been different if Cortez hadn't been the ref?

And for the record, if he beats Malignaggi and Pac/ODH, I would still have great difficulty calling him an ATG. He simply hasn't faced (and beaten) the type of competition to place him in that category. I like Hatton, he's a HoF fighter, but not an ATG. If that makes sense.

Nah he got beat off Floyd fair and square. There was some crap refereeing no doubt but at the end of the day he was in there with the greatest fighter in the world and he has absolutely nothing to be ashamed of in getting beat off Floyd!
