    If Hatton beats PBF then there is a slim chance of Hatton fighting Oscar in Vegas.

    Even if Hatton lights PBF up like a big, 'Norweigan Spruce' Christmas tree, there is NO chance whatsoever of ODLH fighting Hatton at Wembley. Absolutely none.

    Mayweather has already won close decisions over Castillo and ODLH in fights where he wasn't exactly the fan favorite.

    Won't be any difference here, regardless of what plans Golden Boy promotions may or may not have.

    DLH might fight at Wembley as some sort of vehicle to promote boxing/GBP in England..

    i dunno :dunno:

    floyd got rounds against DLH by throwing the minimal...and this is against DLH with his renowned round stealing flurries which makes the entire crowd go c razy

    shouldn't be too much more difficult against Hatton who will throw a looping punch then tie up


    :dunno:

    It's possible, and Muzse even suggested as such, that the only reason he brought Hatton into the fold was to create UKGBP.

    But as far as Oscar fighting Hatton over there? He can just as easily serve up Shane, who obviously has a much more realistic chance of making 147 (and beating Ricky, for that matter)

    agREED 100%- Oscar might send a stooge, he might want a UK 'GBP' but he will NOT be fighting at Hatton or anyone else at Wembley.

    I'd be AMAZED if anything of this sort happened...

    DLH has achieved a hell of a lot in boxing, but do you not think that the possibility of fighting in front of 80,000 loud, fanatical, singing spectators in a fabolous stadium would enitce or excite him?

    Surely it would for any fighter. It's not ALWAYS about the $s.

    i wonder if ODH lost to PBF on purpose. that's the only way i can explain his abandoning the jab. he would've won going away had he jabbed in the later rounds. my guess is he's at a point where if he couldn't knock PBF out, it wasn't worth it to him to beat him. it's only a matter of time before GBP signs PBF - everyone knows this. and whatever banner PBF "thinks" he's being promoted under right now, I'm sure it's a shell for GBP.
