If Mayweather v Hatton comes together, and i guess it will be in America, i'd be up for a trip out there, anyone else be interested, could get a boxrec casino trip up together

COULD WELL BE.

My understanding is that Hatton will fight before the year end, in Manchester with a 2.00 am start.
He will then set sail over the pond in 2006.

Surely it would be quicker to fly?

Perhaps he has the same selective flying phobia as Calzaghe!! ;)

Was Hatton on an undercard fight when he fouhgt at Madison Square Garden once?

states · Post by **states** » 28 Jun 2005, 09:20

He was indeed. The Naz - Kelley undercard, I believe.

he has fought in germany, atlantic city and detroit as well.

in fact only ten of his fights have been at the MEN albeit plenty of late.

As I remember it he had to win that fight in a hurry - he was cut bad.

But maybe he boxes Mayweather in the Manchester City Stadium?

I think that was the Gilbert Quiros fight in Detroit, Hesketh.

would he shift all the tickets at 2am again, specially if the oppenant is weak (in comparison to Zoo)

2am isn't that late, a lot of Hatton's fans are young, so it's not a big ask for them to come to the fight after a piss up and a bit of clubbing.

2AM fights are probably the price a British fighter has to be pay if he wants to fight at home AND be a star in the States. I can handle 2AM a lot better than the 5AM that a stateside PPV tends to entail. What I really want to see is a few other FW fighters riding Hatton's coat-tails now and getting some decent fights on his cards with US TV money
