Hatton eyes De La Hoya humdinger

RICKY HATTON’S reward for shattering the unbeaten record of Floyd Mayweather will be the title of the best fighter on the planet — and a triumphant Wembley homecoming against Oscar De La Hoya.

Hatton’s lawyer Gareth Williams has confirmed that talks are already at an advanced stage for the super-fight which would be expected to shatter box office records at the new national stadium next May.

The news will provide another massive incentive for Hatton, who is desperate to fight in Britain as a reward to thousands of supporters who have once again followed him across the Atlantic.
