Manny you greedy little 5hit. I hope he gets KOed who ever he fight next.
Not confirmed yet, but it's almost definitely off (probably confirmed tomorrow). Pacman wanted a 60-40 split in cash after they verbally agreed a 50-50 split. Hatton apparently offered a 52-48 split in Pacman's favour, but he has turned the offer down.
Greedy c*nt! Manny has lost alot of respect from me. This would've been the biggest fight of 2009 by a mile.

JMM would be good because he'd have to move up in weight. Saying that he is total class, he won the second fight with Pacman IMO, and will be seriously hard to beat, at whatever weight they fight. Whether the money would be there I'm not sure, JMM deserves to be a bigger draw than he is. On top of that its probably the only fight he could take at LWW. Every other name is at WW. (I wouldn't rule out a fight with Cotto, but Hatton would really struggle IMO)
As for Maywheather. Hatton should stay well away and have one more fight against a top class fighter, because if he took him on now the result would be the same as last time.
A fight with DLH would be pointless if Hatton's is looking to inflate his legacy. Although I'm sure it would significantly inflate his bank balance. And if he wants to become P4P number he shouldn't fight DLH, as he's shot.

Big money fight but an irrelevant one. What weight would they fight at? Whichever weight it is at completely affects one of the fighters. If it's at 140lbs, De La Hoya will be weight drained by miles. If it's 147lbs +, Hatton won't be able to fight to his strengths. He's never gone above 147lbs either, whereas De La Hoya's ideal weight now is at 154lbs.
Of the three fights mentioned (Mayweather, JMM/Diaz and De La Hoya) it's the fight I'd like to see the least.
