Why I would like to see him beat Hatton before Floyd, is simply because it would make the Pac v Floyd fight even bigger... There is still the question of whether Pac could beat Hatton... So going into the Floyd fight, people would still consider him a bit of an unknown quantity after Oscar brought nothing to the table...

But a destruction of Hatton would have him at the absolute top of any weight under 147, and the world would pracitically stop for a matchup then with Floyd... I think Floyd would probably like it that way as well, to see Pac beat Hatton first..

Not that I wouldn't love to see him fight Floyd and certainly wouldn't complain about it coming as Pac's next fight.
