The Pacman wants a showdown with the Hitman in what would be another huge fight.

The Pacman is taking on David Diaz on June 28 and thinks that Hatton would be a terrific match - and he's not wrong. Hatton is a top fighter and Pacquiao is up there at the top of most people's p4p rankings alongside Joe Calzaghe. The problem is finding a time to fight.

Hatton has a deal to fight Paulie Malignaggi later in the year, a fight that would once again cement his place as the undisputed Junior Welterweight Champion. Also out there is Oscar De La Hoya who is now looking for a huge name to fight following the shock retirement of Floyd Mayweather Jr. at the weekend.

Whilst I would love to see Hatton and the Pacman go at it at 140lbs, I'm not holding my breath that it'll happen before the turn of the year. However if they are serious then this fight is something that could happen in 2009 and boy that would be some scrap.
