his PPV numbers disagree with you there shane, infact nobody watches him fight, he's just sooo boring.PrettyBoyFloyd said:Lmao, Ricky is dead. Seen that video before. I don't even need to post Floyd's videos because everyone actually watches him fight.
name your wager captain.Captainobvious said:You're comparing apples to oranges. At this point in their careers, everyone knows both of them, and they both command top dollar.
Floyd is gonna tax that ass though, sorry to say.
Anyone wanna put up point against me on that ?
if nobody knew or bothered about hatton why did showtime and HBO have a frenzied bidding war for his rights?PrettyBoyFloyd said:You mean pitiful. He wasn't in the spotlight back then. Outside of Britain nobody even mentions Hatton, ever. So you have it backwards. Hatton needs Floyd. He's getting a massive paycheck because of Floyd. He will get more exposure than ever because of Floyd. If you think Hatton is the reason people are watching you're nuts. Mayweather owns Ricky Hatton.

shane, floyds your boy and thats cool but dont let your loyalty to him make you beleive he's any kind of draw compared to hatton or delahoya.
floyd and zab done a whooping 400,000 buys.![]()
hattons doing that alone in the UK, add the numbers from the american public and you've got a mega cash cow!!
Hey why don't you throw out 400,000 buys again. Maybe if you type it again I'll get it. If Floyd was our only great boxer in the United States he would trump the hell out of anything Hatton supposedly does. Yall only have hatton so of course he's going to generate numbers. We have about 15 ricky hatton's over here. So until you have the same amount of popular guys over there don't even start to compare with Floyd. It's illogical. And captain's right, Floyd will tax that ass.TommyGunn said:if nobody knew or bothered about hatton why did showtime and HBO have a frenzied bidding war for his rights?

thats all because of his dancing not his boxing.TysonJones said:hatton more popular in the us? haha, in this last week i have heard mayweathers name brough up in a usa basketball game, on the front page of yahoo, and talked about on jay leno, plus he's talked about all over every boxing forum in the us. Ive never heard hattons name even stated on american tv or anything like that, most guys dont even know who he is. So more popular in us, i dont think so, in england, sure, i sure as hell hope so. But when it comes to taxing azz, floyd is the accountant.
Who's that black bloke in the red Ricky knocks out?TommyGunn said:
not what ive heard from guys around the boards.TysonJones said:yeah but if hatton was on this dancing show over here, no one would even know who he was in the general public, general people now know who floyd mayweather is.
