    pure Floyd move, not unexpected at all, but I highly doubt this fight will happen, no one cares about Matthew

    Not even Ricky, who beats him mercilessly in training, before sending him to get his take-out.

    It's not about who cares about Matthew. Floyd is going to do this fight in England because he got a glimpse of what die hard boxing fans they are over there. He wants to get an easy fight with a humongous payoff and that is his reasoning here. Think the JMM fight only easier and probably more money.

    Fuck his legacy, fuck the championship, HE'S a multimillionaire.

    Even Floyd can't and won't sink that low. That would be 10x for farcical than the Marquez fight and that was already an absolute disgrace.

    Matthew Hatton has that super-white skinhead thing going on, Floyd could die in the ring.

    Hopefully they add Hopkins-Allen 4 to the undercard.

    This shouldn't come as a shock to anyone.

    1) His name has been mentioned before.

    2) It's Flid we're talking about.

    Why would it be a humongous payoff? No one in the UK either really knows or cares about Matthew hatton, aside from those poor fools who bothered to sit through ricky hatton's mostly tedious undercards rather than correctly time their return home from the boozer. HBO wouldn't go for it, it wouldn't do well on UK PPV, can't see it.

    If Floyd can sell this fight to HBO, I demand drug tests for all HBO sports executives.

    Innit.

    Seriously though, although it would not surprise me in the least that Floyd might be seriously considering Matthew Hatton as an opponent, I would be amazed if this fight came off.

    He is too crap and too unknown.

    He's unknown because he's crap.

    If he was even half-way decent all of his fights would have been televised on Ricky's undercards. When Mathew Hatton is fighting he probably has to deal with sound checks from the TV/Audio crew who are just setting up.

    I would laugh my ass off if Floyd broke his ankle on a cheap shitty ring apron and lost by TKO after 8 rounds or something.

    Matthew Hatton TKO 8 Mayweather:atu:..it would be like when Billy Backus beat Napoles.....

    Essentially yes.

    I'm not even sure I've seen a complete fight of his, he is boring as well as crap. From what I could see though, he's not even close to being world class. Seems like a British level fighter at best, it would be hilarious if Flid fought him.

    Well it wouldn't, but it sort of would.

    The last time I was this unsurprised was when I found out that PBF didn't want to fight Pacman.

    Unfortunately, you are incorrect, because I HAVE had the misfortune of watching Matthew Hatton fight. Quite a few times, in fact. And he sucks balls in a big way. If this fight happens, it will be an absolute disgrace.

    Matthew Hatton is an atrocious fighter. Talk about riding your brothers coattails.
