IS HATTON OVERLOOKING THE PACMAN FOR FLOYD?

RICKY OBSESSED WITH FLOYD, NOT PAC!

New York, NY- Ricky Hatton (45-1 32 KOs) will face current ‘pound for pound’ champion Manny Pacquiao in May, a huge fight for the junior welterweight (140 lbs) division and the sport. Both fighters have an equally large fan base, which should equate to a high profile fight and a financial success for everybody involved.
