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

[leftylee]

Does it matter where Hatton gets his ass kicked?...As vfor all you Brits crying about what America wants this is a brit a phil fighter, fuck Arum, etc....here is a tid bit for ya

Fuk Hatton and what he wants...why does he get a pro Hatton crowd? Pacquiao is the #1 P4P fighter not Hatton...Pacquiao is the bigger draw not Hatton.....Let it be Pacquiaos choice...Hatton doesn't like it let him fight Kendall Holt

It isnt a case of fuck Hatton and what he wants. Its a case of some of his fans saying what they actually want. If a pro Hatton crowd in a stadium can generate a lot of interest then so be it. Why do it in a sterilised casino venue with the empty sound of slot machines in the background?? Oh because Pac is PFP number 1!!. Is Pac really the bigger draw?? Maybe for HBO.

Overall yes Pacquiao is a bigger draw right now

Please don't say that.

Ricky Hatton is the biggest supported fighter in the world. And has been for the past couple of years. He got 50,000 for Juan Lazcano, Lazcano for fuck sake. A Pac fight would go beyond 100,000.

Why do you think Floyd Mayweather's camp have just offered him a rematch ? there's a lot of money to be made off Hatton's name.

Really... Floyds camp did?....Amazing since Floyd has yet to announce his official return....Keep confusing rumor with fact...

As for it being wrong for the fight to take place in the US don't ever remember saying it had to be in the US...Again that is just Lefty acting like an ass by talking out of his ass.......

Fight could be anywhere Japan, SA, Germany where ever just why should it be in a pro Hatton or Pro Pacquiao crowd?...

As for the US having all the big fights like I stated before when the UK promoters can generate the purses that US promoters do then maybe they can get some more worth while fights there....

A shame US promoters have to come to the UK for you to have any worth while match up's

LOL are you for real ?

So in effect couldn't I say why didn't ODLH-Pac take place in India, what about Thailand ? Hmmm I wonder why

It's wrong for the fight to take place in the USA because the fight doesn't involve the US at all. Sky Box Office (A British firm) will be broadcasting and will have the rights. The fighters are British and Filipino respectively.

To make it simple here's why the fight should be in the UK:

One of the fighters is from the UK. The other fighter is more than happy to come to the UK.
The UK would gain the most money from the fight
The UK would gain the most fans attending, 100,000 plus. It would be a unique, extroadinary event.

The MGM would sell how many seats ? 15,000 ? No where close.

I'll think you'll find I'm not talking out my ass, I'm making valid points and people are agreeing with me

[leftylee]

This is the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Compare this to what Kel posted of Wembley.

Not even close hahaha

[yvonne]

Its about time we brits had a big showdown fight over here.Wembly or the Millennium stadium would be top draw stuff!!

Honestly, I thought THIS was that time Yvonne. I am totally gutted, I really had my heart set on being there

I am really fucked off to be honest

[brucelee]

Imagine if this fight will be done in Wembley..... Rabid Hatton fans would be throwing stones, bottles,etc. on Pac if he KOs HAtton.


I think US would be a little neutral place. As many of you have said, thousands of Hatton fans would go to US just to watch him fight.

Also, I believe that there are more Filipinos in the US than in UK. For us Filipinos, US will be a nice place to stage the fight.
