SKy Sports just - Hatton v Pac set for May in USA ??

[JazMerkin]

Hatton is the champ, Pac is the challenger. I think that speaks volumes for where they should fight.

I am American...i'd like it here, cuz I'm greedy., But this fight could generate more revenue in England, seriously. Pac is not having any trouble with popularity. He is almost a household name at this point, imho.

Hatton will lose. I'd like to see him win, but I just don't think it will happen, unless Mayweather Sr can get rid of some stinky habits he's holding onto. He could get seriously exposed by Pac.

It's not a title fight

It will almost certainly be for both the IBO title (yes I know) & the Ring Mag Light-Welterweight title.

I don't think so....I don't think Manny is going to settle in the 140lb division...Right now he is just fighting who ever he can worth their salt

Pacquiao was quoted as saying he has no objections to Wembly, as he loves boxing fans all over the world, regardless of race and boxer preference. I think he believes in the saying, the more the merrier, plus he has never fought in England.

If the Vegas venue pushes through, then there goes my puny reason to visit folks there! I was hoping for that BIG TIME!

little note: It is spelled Filipino, and not Philippino.

What is the seating capacity of Wembley Arena, by the way?

Wembley Arena & Wembley Stadium are 2 different places. The Arena holds somewhere between 12,000 & 20,000. Wembley Stadium has a capacity of 90,000+, plus at least 200 more that could be seated ringside

Would have been so sweet!!

Seating for 90,000 people and for concerts they have 15,000 standing on the pitch area. So potentially about 100,000 boxing fans could see it live.

Even if every ticket was £50 they take $10,000,000 so yes, that is a fucking big gate lol

This doesn't mean it won't be a title fight though as I'm sure the IBO belt will be on the line just for promotional purposes, and the Ring belt holds more credibility than a lot of the others anyway. Whether Pac chooses to defend the titles afterwards is immaterial

Hatton is the universally recognised lightwelter champion.

He doesn't need a silly alphabet. The fight doesn't need a silly alphabet.
