This weekend...is this the test that Hatton finally needs to prove his worth?....I think Hatton will be challenged because who remembers all those classic fights between Castillo vs Corrales I think Castillo is made of tough stuff...

Anyone gonna see it?

Didn't Mayweather say he was retiring? Or was he just running his mouth for the cameras as usual?

He is to young to retire plus the form that Hatton was in will change that...plus as Snyper said a few more Million and he's got himself a fight...

Hatton cannot beat Mayweather. Would be good to watch though.

Castillo is a shot fighter and bummer for Hatton because such an easy win does nothing to boost his aura.

I still can't believe how shot Castillo looked, from the opening bell, it was a matter of time.

I remembered the Castillo and Corrales matches and the way Hatton beat him was weird...

Ricky Hatton has been warned he will regret trying to tempt boxing legend Floyd Mayweather out of retirement for a big money showdown.

Manchester's Hatton, 28, called out the American after his stunning fourth-round stoppage of Jose Luis Castillo in Las Vegas on Sunday.

But 30-year-old Mayweather's advisor Leonard Ellerbe told BBC Sport: "We can make the deal this year.

"Hatton's trying to promote himself off Floyd's name and he'll kick his butt."

Hatton is eager to take on five-weight champion Mayweather, the world's best pound-for-pound boxer, after stopping Castillo in Las Vegas.

Hatton would get pwned by Mayweather...

Don't be too confident, although with enough ??? it is bound to happen. It would be the fight of the year!

I'm not being confident, I just call it like it is. Mayweather would have a much easier time with Hatton than he did with DLH. And you know how that turned out.

Mayweather targets Hatton!

Floyd vows to beat him all the way back to England.

"Ricky Hatton has talked nonstop about fighting me for the last two weeks," says 'retired' WBC welterweight/super welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather. "He has disrespected me and my accomplishments in the ring, and I take that very seriously. I'm going to give him the opportunity to step up and fight the best in the world. I don't think this punk will take the challenge." A potential bout against Hatton would set the stage for a match-up between two of the sports best undefeated fighters. With his win over Castillo, Hatton improved his record to 43-0 with 31 KO's. Mayweather is 38-0 with 24 KO's. "Now that Hatton has opened up his big mouth, he might start to think about what he has been asking for," continued Mayweather. "Does he really want to step into the ring with best fighter of this era and embarrass himself? Being the coward that he is, I doubt he'll get in the ring. We'll see what his excuse will be this time."

Woot!...I would like to see these 2 get it on...but as I said before I really think Hatton could be out of his league...

Floyd will easily outbox him... will be boring from a fans perspective... I would love to see Hatton pound that dope into the ground but: shrug. Be like another Baldomir.

Promoter Dennis Hobson has offered Floyd Mayweather ?5m to fight Ricky Hatton in Britain later this year.

Mayweather says he is willing to come out of retirement to fight Manchester's light welterweight champion.

"I've spoken to some of his people and they've been very receptive. It's a very substantial offer," said Hobson.

However, Hatton's former promoter Frank Warren claims he could promote some of his future fights after settling his libel row with the fighter's father.

    • I found that stability back then was really down to the motherboard manufacturer. Back then i stuck with Microstar motherboards and VIA chipsets as they were ultra reliable. Most stuff was done with jumpers and left little room for user created problems 👍
    • Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.
