    Mayweather adapts and figures guys out better than anyone. In the event of a rematch, Floyd will have an easier time because he knows Ricky's style, knows what works and what he can and can't do.

    Whats Ricky going to do different? With all due respect to him, he has his style and thats it. Its a wonderful style thats obviously been effective, but he tried it and it got him beat and KO'd. I don't see what he could do different.

    But it would be one of the funniest rematches as well I love Hatton, have for a while. I like his style for the most part and to a degree; but I never thought he belonged in the ring with Floyd and I never will. You need more than what he can bring to the ring to beat Floyd. He'll get brutalized so bad in a rematch it would be criminal.

    As far as Hatton/Pac, it would be a barnburner of a little fight. I was holding out hope of seeing Hatton/Juan Diaz one day, but I guess it won't ever happen.

    Let me get this straight...

    He escapes with a razor-thin and controversial decision at 147 against Luis Collazo, then gets KO'ed by PBF at that same weight.

    Now, he either wants a rematch with PBF, or a fight with PAC, a 130-pound fighter.

    Are opponents that scarce at 140

    Well not that I like the idea of a Pac fight (and I hate the idea of a PBF rematch) but kind of, yeah. I mean who's out there, there's Malignaggi who he's already planning on fighting. Other than that there's Timothy Bradley and I'm not sure who would think of that as a big fight. There's Ricardo Torres which know that I think about it is probably the best fight besides Malignaggi. But there's not much at 140. Funny cause were not that far away from when it was the division with Hatton, Tsyzu, PBF, etc.

    There are some prospects, Victor Ortiz and Lamont Peterson for example but they aren't going to get a shot right now.

    The only thing hatton did well in the fight was preasure mayweather... But that 'wasn't even very effective... Ricky is strong yeas, but so is mayweather and skillwise it is not even close...

    Ricky, I love ya but C'mon

    Meh, I'd personally quite like to see a Hatton vs Pac fight come off sometime in the future... Assuming Pac doesn't look like shit against Diaz or something, I think it's an exciting matchup. Hatton would probably be too strong for Manny, but Pacquiao is a more talented fighter quite clearly imo. Plus he is reportedly having trouble making 130, If he could carry his speed ok he might be able to beat Hatton. It very much depends on how each of these guys handle their next opponents. I don't expect Diaz to do much against Manny, nor Lazcano against Hatton.. But imo Malignaggi could potentially throw a wrench in this whole thing if he and Ricky fight.

    He wants to avenge his only loss, can you blame him for wanting to put the record straight ?? I remember Jeff Lacy calling Calzaghe out like 6-12 months after he got beat wanting a rematch.
    A combination of the point deduction, bad (let's say) refereeing from Cortez and the cut Hatton knows and admits he lost his rag, therefore if the fight was to happen in UK (Which it would) then Hatton probbably thinks the ref will be as fair to both fighters rather than sucking one's dick then he would fancy his chances. Floyd would want the fight, I remember Richard Schafer or however you spell his name saying Floyd fighting in the UK and in front of 90,000 screaming Hatton fans that it would be a new challenge to him and he would accept it providing Hatton wins another title. ICB there really is a big chance of this fight happeneing, Cotto isn't a "big-name" or somebody "with a big following" for Floyd and let's remember Floyd only wants the money fights now (Hence why he's fighting ODLH next) and with Hatton's fuckin huge fanbase the Hitman fits that.

    Lefty, you know I'm a Hatton fan but this rematch is just dumb... Ricky fought as best he could last time and he did pretty well considering... Had it gone to the card it would have been a virtual whitewash... The refing won't matter...

    Ricky can move on to other things. He's got fights left in him but why rink getting taken down another peg by the best P4P... It seems dumb to me...

    I mean, Hatton has a set on him and no one will argue that but he was pretty handily defeated... It's not like it was controvercial...

    BTW I voiced my views coming from a Hatton persepective himself, I'm pretty sure he's thinking the bit I've highlighted I would like to see Hatton have 5 fights before he retires and then retire the undisputed champ at 140 with the WBC,IBF,WBO,WBA titles.

    Judging from the replies here, Hatton-PAC has a big chance of making it late this year or early next year... It's one of the biggest fight for Hatton since PAC is also a big name... 2 boxers that has the majority support of fans in their respective countries... And that's assuming PAC will do well at 135...

    I don't care how much Hatton wants a rematch he got pretty much shut out last time, and it would be a pointless rematch for both fighters. Mayweather needs to fight winner of Cotto vs Margarito or Williams vs Quintana 2, and Hatton needs to fight Torres, Paulie, Bradley. And i would actually be more excited if Hatton fought the title holders at 140.

    If it happens, it will really be very exciting. Pacfans and Hatton fans will be quivering.

    But, if there was only a different referee (maybe Hatton's mom will be available this time), and if Floyd wasn't allowed to foul Hatton like Hatton was allowed to foul Tszyu, and if it was fought in a smaller ring, and if the fight had been in the U.K., and if Hatton had been allowed to do steroids for 3 months prior to the fight, and if he was allowed to carry a lead pipe into the ring he could have won! </sarcasm>

    Sorry Hatton fans, I like the guy too, but I'm sick of hearing excuses for his loss to PBF. He was beat by the better man and he'd lose to Floyd 9 times out of 10 regardless of the circumstances.
    im the biggest hatton fan you could meet, and i have no excuses for his loss to floyd, floyd was easily the better fighter.no doubt about that. however no matter what anybody says joe cortez didnt cost hatton the fight but he certainly did not referee that fight well. I think hatton v mayweather 2 might not be everybodys cup of tea but i wanna see it regardess. If its true that mayweather wants a rematch then hatton should jump at the chance even if its at 147. People woud say mayweather should fight margarito and he probably should but he will make 10 times the money fighting hatton.
